The lower decile of dairy intake was associated with lower income, lower healthy score index, lower intake of total energy, lower intake of saturated fatty acids, and lower intake of calcium

Summary
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
