Milk 2 Flashcards
Background trend
- increasing aged population (by 2030 30% population > 60 yrs old)
- Obesity increase in UK F & M
- Type 2 diabetes
Metabolic syndrome can be linked to
- Genetic Factor
- Diet
Calcium intake in UK female is
on average 11- 19 yrs old mean intake is not meeting the recommended lv
why Calcium is important
- 90% of adult skeleton formed age 18
- Up to 25% of children aged 11-14 have sub-optimal Ca intakes
- Up to 20% of children aged 15-18 have sub-optimal Ca intakes
- Girls usually worse
- May have implications for bone strength
in later life
Most iodine intake comes from
- milk and dairy
- fish
[Rose et al., 2001; Henderson et al., 2003]
Recent studies of UK iodine status
deficiency shown in:
Women of childbearing age [Bath et al. 2008; Rayman et al. 2008; Lampropoulou et al 2012]
Pregnant women [Kibirige et al. 2004/ Barnett et al. 2002/ Bath et al. 2010/ Pearce et al 2010]
Major mineral nutrient density
Na from Meat
Ca & P from dairy
Water soluble vitamin density
Vit C, vit B12, Ribo from dairy
very small amount of Vit B6 from meat
Milk has high unsaturated fat content T/F
false
it has high saturated fat
Fat and SFA intake in UK
- Fat intake % is very close to target in most groups
- SFA intake % is way above target in most group
Fatty acid profile of milk fat
mainly long chain saturated fat & monounsaturated fat C9
Sources of saturated fats in EU diet
mostly from dairy, then meat
Hulshof et al., 1999
Milk, Dairy Products and CVD risk
Meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies shows dietary dairy products (mainly milk) has no significant link to cardiovascular disease incidence [Elwood et al., 2010]
On the other hand, there is benefit:
= Other cardioprotective components in milk
= SFA profile may not represent as great a risk as traditionally thought
Dairy consumption is inversely related
to the metabolic syndrome
Azadbakht et al., 2005
WHAT GIVES MILK FUNCTIONALITY?
Milk-a rich source of bioactive peptides
= opioid agonist
= Antithrombotic
= ACE inhibitor
