Butter and dairy are making a comeback on some plates but a review of the literature indicates that it’s still not as healthy a choice as low fat alternatives or abstaining entirely. In several studies, butter consumption was associated with higher LDL or bad cholesterol rise. In another study, cheese and butter were correlated with a higher risk of Type 2 Diabetes, although there is a corresponding study that refutes that data. Studies on food intake and disease are difficult to quantify. But for now, the AHA and American College of Cardiology suggest people refrain.

- Butter is bad for health because it’s can make cholesterol high and risk of stroke and heart disease
- Whole grain fish fermented milk like cheese are low fat intake
