Weight loss expert Dr Michael Mosley has warned people to think carefully before switching away from dairy. It comes after he explained that he now drinks full-fat cows milk since weighing up the evidence.
In a post on his Fast 800 Instagram page, the doctor says that unless you really understand what is involved, switching from dairy milk to plant based alternatives could be bad for your body. He says that it could have a negative impact on bones, the heart and brain.
Presenter Michael Mosley also warned that skinny versions of milk might have the opposite effect. The post explains that he thinks full-fat milk is best because it contains high levels of protein and is a good source of calcium for healthy bones.
