A scientist cautions that a common beverage, which kids also like to drink, may cause heart disease. Dr. Justine Butler, who received his PhD in molecular biology from Bristol University, asserts that consuming dairy products, including milk, might cause heart disease. Milk and milkshakes ‘contain large amounts of saturated fat,’ according to Dr. Butler, and are detrimental to health. She referenced studies from the Nurses' Health Study that revealed a connection between consuming high-fat dairy products and an increased risk of heart disease.
Dr. Butler, a proponent of veganism, said: "The solution is simple: avoid dairy and go vegan. Vegans had substantially lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels than all other diet categories, as well as a much lower risk of heart disease," she continued.
