“Dairy proteins significantly slow the rapid absorption of beneficial polyphenols, an effect that could potentially diminish its immediate cognitive and anti-inflammatory effects. In fact, one study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that combining coffee + milk reduced the bioavailability of chlorogenic acids from the coffee by 28% compared to drinking black coffee.”

“" The creatine content of muscles in adult males who adhere to a vegetarian diet is 30% lower than those who eat meat, fish, and dairy products, suggesting that vegetarians or vegans may benefit from creatine supplementation.".”

“Choline is found in both animal- and plant-based foods, with eggs being an especially rich source—one large egg provides approximately 147 mg. Other sources include meat, poultry, fish, dairy products, cruciferous vegetables, beans, nuts, seeds, and whole grains.”

“New research suggests that Neu5Gc, a type of sugar, provides another possible mechanism to explain the cancer-promoting effects of diets high in red meat and dairy products. Neu5Gc is a carbohydrate produced by non-human mammals and found in red meat and dairy products.”

“Interestingly, peptides in calcium-rich dairy products may promote magnesium absorption, working synergistically to promote bone health. Taking multiple small magnesium doses throughout the day rather than a single large dose can increase absorption.”

“Antibiotic and other medication use and changes in the diet can modulate the gut microbiota community in ways that reduce or increase the risk of neuropsychiatric illnesses such as depression. Findings of a recent report show that consuming a fermented dairy beverage may improve memory via changes in the gut-brain axis.”
