The article I found was about the correlation between dairy consumption and changes
in body weight and waist circumference. A group of nutritionists did a study where they took a
large group of French adults (ranging from normal-weight to over-weight males and females)
and had them eat different types of dairy products, such as cheese, milk, and yogurt.
Throughout the study, they discovered that in overweight men, changes in weight and waist
circumference were inversely associated with the consumption of dairy products especially
that of milk and yogurt. There was no relation with cheese intake. Increases in weight were
found in over-weight and normal-weight woman with the consumption of milk and yogurt.
After a careful analyses, they found a trend toward increased weight in normal-weight woman
after high dairy consumption. The conclusions of the experiment stated that the relation of
dairy consumption with changes in weight and waist circumference may differ according to
sex, initial body-weight status, and type of dairy products. The association of dairy products
observed in men was not technically explained by dairy intakes, which could conclude that
other components of dairy or dietary patterns associated with dairy may help to explain the
observed observations.
The text was extremely confusing. It kept using all of these scientific terms that I had
trouble understanding. I actually had to read the piece about three times just to make sure I
knew what they were trying to talk about. I have always been so against dairy, and have always
just came to the conclusion that it was bad for you. I never would think to take into account
that it could affect woman differently than men. I thought it was extremely interesting how
cheese was not even a big factor with increased weight and how it was mainly milk and yogurt.
I always knew that milk made people gain weight like crazy, but so many people are under the
impression that yogurt is so good for people. When in reality, it can make you gain weight like
crazy if there is a high intake of it. I want to know more about the affects with dairy
consumption in terms of body weight, and the main dairy products that make people gain the
most weight. I can make use of this text because it is directly correlated to the topic that I want
to talk about, but I definitely want to find more studies based on this topic, so I can support my
argument more.

A recent study tried to find the correlation between dairy consumption on weight and
body composition in adults. This article was about summarizing the published evidence from
randomized controlled clinical trials regarding the effect of dairy consumption on weight, body
fat mass, lean mass, and waist circumference. There were sixteen different trials of this
experiment, a group of people with a high dairy intake, and a group of people with little to no
dairy intake, and several control groups. The results led to an actualization that overall an
increased dairy intake resulted in greater increase in fat mass, gain in lean mass, and an
increase in waist circumference. In the diets that had a low dairy intake resulted in greater
weight loss, greater reduction in body fat mass, and a gain in body lean mass. An increase dairy
consumption without energy restriction might not have a significant change in weight or body
mass, but a diet where there is an energy restriction significantly affects weight, body fat mass,
lean mass, and waist circumferences compared to the usual weight loss diets.
Like the previous article, this was extremely tough to figure out what it was trying to
say. I had to read it a few times, and breaking it down by each sentence was how I came to
figure out what it was really trying to inform people about. This article didnt really shock me in
anyway. It basically just proved the point further that dairy does make people gain weight, and
removing it from ones diet will have a significant change in weight loss. I thought it was
interesting and informative how it addressed removing dairy as a weight loss diet. This article
just made me want to find more information about studies proving how dairy is so bad for the
human body. I want to continue researching about dairy consumption in correlation to weight,
and the main dairy products that lead to the most weight gain.

This article was against my argument. A group of nutritionists did a study using
randomized controlled trials. This study also tried to find a correlation between dairy
consumption on body weight and fat mass. Twenty-nine people were chosen to be controls
with a total of 2101 participants. Overall, consumption of dairy products did not result in a
significant reduction in weight. In fact, consumption of dairy products actually reduced body
weight in short-term intervention trials, but had the opposite effect in long-term trails. In their
conclusions, they stated that diary consumption will in fact increase body weight over a long
period of time, but could potentially help a person lose weight in a short amount of time.

I had a little bit of trouble trying to figure this article out, but it was much easier than
the previous articles I had read. I only had to read it once, instead of three times, and they used
not as much scientific language as the previous articles. In all of the articles, they used the term
energy-restricted when talking about weight loss. I wasnt sure what it exactly meant, but I
wanted to find out. I thought it was extremely interesting how their results led to a conclusion
that short term dairy consumption led to a weight loss, but as of long term it resulted in
increased weight. I think that this had to have been from a possible error. It could have been
from the type of dairy product they used, or from measurement errors. I would like if I could
read more about this research study to see exactly how they went about their measurements,
and how the controls were used, and how they determined what each person ate.

The article I found was a study showing the negative effects dairy consumption can have
on a persons health. The study showed that dairy products can contribute to an increase in
energy, calcium, and protein, but they also contain saturated fatty acids which, with high
consumption, lead to cardio vascular disease, coronary artery disease, and diabetes. The article
stated that the increased consumption of milk or dairy products is inversely related to
incidence of cardio vascular disease. The consumption of dairy products shows characteristics
of the metabolic syndrome, which leads to risk factors including dyslipidemia, insulin resistance,
increased blood pressure, and abdominal obesity, which together increase the risk of diabetes
and cardio vascular disease. Cheese does not have the negative effects on blood lipids solely by
the content of saturated fat. Yogurt also has probiotic effects, but leads to weight gain, obesity,
and cardiovascular disease.

This article was extremely interesting. I didnt know that dairy products had such a negative
effect on our health, and a lot of people probably dont even know it. The fact that dairy has such
a high amount of saturated fat is disgusting, and people should cut it out of their diets. I am going to use
this information in my paper when I talk about the risks people put on themselves as a result of eating
dairy.

This article talked about the beneficial aspect chocolate milk has after a workout. The study
compared chocolate milk with a carbohydrate replacement drink as a recovery aid after intense exercise
from trained cyclists. After several trials of the trained cyclists using chocolate milk as their recovery aid
for over a week, they switched to a normal carbohydrate replacement drink. After doing several trials
with this, the results ended up being the same. The study concluded that there was no actual difference
between drinking chocolate milk after a workout from drinking a normal, non-dairy recovery drink.

This article was so amazing to find! This completely proves that dairy is just bad for you, and the
reason chocolate milk is so good after a workout is because it is so high in carbohydrates. There are
plenty other foods and drinks that are high in carbohydrates, and chocolate milk shouldnt be one of
them. I am going to use this article to prove that dairy is just bad for a persons health.
