Dairy’s Calming Presence
Are the winter blues kicking in for you yet? This time of year can certainly be taxing. When in stress, turn to dairy. Dairy produces a calming effect on the body, and there is a reason, so many of us turn to dairy products as “comfort food”. From the cream in your coffee to the cookies n' cream in your cone, dairy aids in calming our minds and bodies.
Here are a couple of fun facts to support the good feelings dairy brings us:
- Emerging research suggests that dairy plays a role in reducing stress — or an overall calming effect — through a few of its innate properties.
- Milk contains naturally occurring phospholipids, which are used as some of the building blocks in our brain. Consumption of dairy phospholipids shows promising insight into the calming effects of our favorite dairy foods on mental alertness and positivity.
- Dairy — especially yogurt, cheese, and kefir — has a positive impact on our gut microbiome, which in turn has a positive impact on our mental well-being through what is known as the gut-brain axis.
Now we get why mom wanted us to drink our milk before bed…
