The PURE study included data from 136,384 participants (35-70 years old) in 21 countries. They were grouped into four categories: no dairy (28,674 individuals), less than one serving per day (55,651), one-two servings per day (24,423), and over two servings per day (27,636).
One standard serving of dairy was equivalent to a glass of milk at 244 g, a cup of yoghurt at 244 g, one slice of cheese at 15 g, or a teaspoon of butter at 5 g.
Dairy consumption was highest in North America and Europe (368 g/day or above four servings of total dairy per day) and lowest in south Asia, China, Africa and southeast Asia (147, 102, 91 and 37 g/day respectively).
Compared to the no intake group, the high intake group (mean intake of 3.2 servings per day) had lower rates of total mortality (3.4% vs 5.6%), non-cardiovascular mortality (2.5% vs 4%), cardiovascular mortality (0.9% vs 1.6%), major cardiovascular disease (3.5% vs 4.9%), and stroke (1.2% vs 2.9%). There was no difference in the rates of myocardial infarction between the two groups (1.9% vs 1.6%).
Among those who consumed only whole-fat dairy, higher intake (mean intake of 2.9 servings of whole fat dairy per day) was associated with lower rates of total mortality (3.3% vs 4.4%) and major cardiovascular disease (3.7% vs 5.0%), compared to those who consumed less than 0.5 servings whole-fat dairy per day.
Higher intake of milk and yoghurt (above 1 serving per day) was associated with lower rates of the composite outcome, which combines total mortality and cardiovascular disease (milk: 6.2% vs 8.7%; yoghurt: 6.5% vs 8.4%), compared to no consumption.
The differences in the composite outcome for butter and cheese were not significant as intake was lower than for milk and yoghurt.

Now do it with real dairy... e.g. raw milk. Bet it is even better for you than the processed store stuff.
Yeah and don’t bother taking aspirin to help prevent heart attack or stroke. As of yesterday, that’s been debunked as well.
I say eat whatever your body tells you you need. Don’t be a pig and eat so much that your body never gives you these signals.
Cravings are useful. Just ask a pregnant woman.
Gotta run...
Made myself hungry!
They seem to be assuming that correlation demonstrates causation in one direction.
I craved Lox and Bagels when I was pregnant with my son. He got to college and he joined a Jewish fraternity. LOL!
Calzone - yes!
Beef Boli minus the extra marinara and green peppers also a big yes.
A local chain called Schaino’s makes a killer boli.
Barnaby Jones was big milk drinker and lived a long time.
I love my milk too.
I only have two words for you Haagen Dazs, just cream, sugar and an egg plus whatever flavor you want. Its as close to cow that you can get.
IOW, I might not ever die?
Just had some homemade pizza for dinner. Of course, all that grease and carbs are going to offset the cheese.
Interesting. I have trouble drinking milk with lactose. Stomach gurgles all day. Gas. No problem with Lactaid Milk.
I love this type of study!

The LACTAID Difference
For over 40 years, we’ve taken the drama out of dairy. More people trust us for lactose-free products than any other brand.

Thanks again. Will look into it.
You are an idiot!

Background
Dietary guidelines recommend minimizing consumption of whole-fat dairy products, as they are a source of saturated fats and presumed to adversely affect blood lipids and increase cardiovascular disease and mortality.
Evidence for this contention is sparse and few data for the effects of dairy consumption on health are available from low-income and middle-income countries.
Therefore, we aimed to assess the associations between total dairy and specific types of dairy products with mortality and major cardiovascular disease.
