7 Meta-analysis finds dairy trans fats pose no heart disease or diabetes risk

A meta-analysis of 22 studies found that naturally occurring trans fats in dairy products do not increase risk of heart disease, stroke, or type 2 diabetes. The distinction is critical—industrial trans fats remain harmful, while dairy trans fats showed no adverse effects.

  • 22-study meta-analysis examined dairy trans fats
  • 10 controlled trials: participants consumed 1.3–13.2g trans fat daily
  • 12 long-term cohorts: up to two decades, no adverse associations
  • Natural dairy trans fats differ from harmful industrial trans fats
