Eating more calcium-rich dairy food may help in the battle of the bulge, recent studies have suggested. A study of overweight people by Danish scientists’ hints at why dairy might help dieters: it seems to reduce fat absorption. After study the participants ate meals that contained either high or medium amount of low-fat yogurt and milk, their blood-fat levels were 15 to 10 percent lower than those of a group that ate only a small amount of dairy. Interestingly, this was true even when participants who were given low-dairy meals also took calcium supplement.
