Dairy Free With Low Bodyfat Benefits From Dairy?

I know this is more a "dairy free" topic, but it seems a large number of us are also dairy free, especially during the first stages of healing from intestinal damage.

My issue is this: I keep reading articles that talk about how dairy is linked with low body fat. I don't remember all the specifics, but it is something i have read from a number of different healthy sources/newsletters.

Is there any way to get this benefit without consuming the dairy? I don't think it's the calcium [some amino acid in dairy?]

If anyone has more info on this [the benefits of dairy and body fat more specifically] and also if it is possible to obtain them dairy free [or not!] I'd love to hear more...

For clarification, here's an example of the type of information I am referring to:

Open Original Shared Link

"Zemel looked at 34 obese black women and men who did not eat any more or less food during the 24-week study. Half ate three daily servings of dairy foods in place of lean meat. These people did not lose weight. But they lost nearly five pounds of body fat, gained muscle, had lower blood pressure, and lost an inch and a half around their waists."

Anyone know why this is and if it's possible to replicate without dairy?

I've exercised a lot over the years and have been an advocate of using low fat milk after a workout to help promote muscle growth. Read a article a few sundays back by one of the medical docs who writes for the paper and they backed up what I have been doing. They said to stay away from the so called power energy drinks, drink regular water while you are exercising and drink a large glass of low fat milk after you exercise. They also backed up what Spunky007 said about losing fat and building muscle. However, I haven't found any non-dairy substitutes. Sorry.

A calcium rich diet is what they mean. They say dairy for the norm because that is easy for people to understand.

Are you sure? I thought I read one of these articles in specific reference to soy vs. cow milk [saying that it was the cows milk that has been linked to promoting lean body mass]...and both of these are sources of calcium...?

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By lehum · Posted

      The article was shocking - and horrifying - to read. For me it’s a good argument to cook as many fresh foods as possible. I personally can’t do grain free because I lose weight too quickly and don’t feel full, but I will be sticking to companies I trust like Lundberg for rice.    I live in Germany and thankfully, labeling here is more transparent and more trustworthy than it appears to be in the U.S. these days (where I’m also originally from).  I am so sorry to hear this! May you heal quickly. ❤️

      Yes, it is unfortunate that the GFCO seems to have a policy that allows companies that it certifies to lower their guard the longer that they've had their certification. After jumping though the harder GFCO testing requirements for long enough they seem to "rubber stamp" companies and allow them to keep their certification with much less testing going forward. To me this is like having a restaurant where you train the staff one time about how do handle gluten-free foods, and do the training less and less over time, even though you might have high turnover in the industry. People in big food production and supply companies come and go, just like in restaurants, and it's important never to lower your guard.

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There are tons of ingredients that can cause IBS-like issues in anyone, but especially in newly diagnosed celiacs, and it would probably make sense for us to do an article on that topic, but here is an article that might be helpful:

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Thanks but that amount of gluten will def have me in chronic pain and discomfort. My hemorrhoids issues are quite severe. Part of the reason I've abandoned diagnosis.

      Are you exposed to any airborne sources of gluten? We have an older house and constantly fixing something. Cutting into old wall board or plaster can release gluten into the air. Also, the sickest i ever got was from taking care of my neighbor's chickens, they get excited and kick up everything, air filled with dust. Sure enough, their food contained gluten grain.  Any pets? If they are eating gluten, they lick themselves, you pet them .... my pets all eat grain free pet food. If I pet someone else's critters, which I am compelled to do, I immediately was hands.
