Summary

Introduction

Throughout history, food systems and human diets have been and are shaped by climate, terrain, seasons, location, culture, and technology. They can be grouped into three broad types: gather-hunter, peasant-agriculture and urban-industrial [1]. The gather-hunter exhibited a diet with great variety of foods, rich in micronutrients, usually high in animal sources from insect to large animal, high in protein, moderate amounts of fat and starchy foods, Citation: Polo TCF, Papini SJ, Sloan KP, Frenhani PB, Burini RC (2019) Association of Dairy Intake with Hypertension and Metabolic Syndrome in a Community-Based Brazilian Adults. The dietary characteristic of the modern man is its low intake of dairy products, motivated by either socioeconomic, knowledge, or even cultural reasons [6]. Results of epidemiological studies that have evaluated the relationship between dairy food consumption and risk of metabolic syndrome are not consistent and sometimes controversial
