Fermented dairy products, diet quality, and cardio –metabolic profile of a Mediterranean cohort at high cardiovascular risk

However, in Mediterranean populations, these associations have not been well characterized.The aim of this study was to assess the diet quality and the associations between the consumption of total fermented dairy products and their subtypes and the prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) components in a Mediterranean population at high cardiovascular risk.
