I was watching yesterday's Colbert Report and he talked about a recent health report regarding fertility and low-fat dairy. Now ordinarily these studies show a positive effect of consuming low-fat dairy. New Scientist has a good article about this  Harvard School of Public Health study. They followed a cohort of nurses for 8 years, and found a strong correlation between ovulation problems and consuming 2+ servings of low-fat dairy per week. The women who ate full-fat dairy "reduced their risk of anovulatory infertility by more than 25% compared with women who consumed up to one serving a week."

Guess I'm buying whole milk for the next few months! It can't hurt, as long as I reduce calories somewhere else.
