Abstract

The unique physical-chemical properties of foods directly impact their digestion and absorption. Dairy foods are key components of healthy eating patterns because they provide protein and essential vitamins and minerals to the diet. Additionally, scientific evidence has shown that the benefits of milk and dairy foods on health are due to the overall composition of the whole food rather than its individual nutrients. Indeed, the unique bioactive components of milk and dairy products are integral to the health benefits attributed to dairy foods. A better understanding of the dairy matrix and the protein- and fat-derived bioactive components of milk and dairy products will help inform evidence-based dietary guidance.
