                                According to a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials published in the journal *Nutrients*, including dairy in a calorie-restricted diet can lead to greater fat loss and weight loss while preserving lean muscle mass. The misconception that milk is always a hindrance to weight loss is widespread, but for many people, it can be a beneficial part of a balanced diet.
