Hamilton Health Sciences, in partnership with McMaster University, has been involved in a major global study for 20 years involving 250,000 people in 50 countries. The findings challenge current dietary guidelines. For instance, contrary to popular belief, a moderate intake of fat in meat and dairy products higher than the current recommendations is linked to lower death rates. And a higher intake of potassium rich foods is associated with a  lower risk of stroke.
