Is dairy bad for your heart… or actually helpful? In this Ask a Nutritionist episode, dietitian Amy Crum clears up the confusion around dairy and heart health. Learn which dairy foods support heart health and which ones don’t, why full-fat fermented dairy can be a better choice than fat-free options, and how sugar and refined carbs play a much bigger role in cholesterol and triglycerides than butter ever did.
