If my cholesterol scores are good, can i eat whole milk and full-fat yogurt?

Yes, as long as you continue to monitor your cholesterol yearly, exercise vigorously, eat a healthy (mostly low-fat) diet, and don't smoke. But that still doesn't give you full permission to raid the dairy aisle: A single eight-ounce cup of whole milk contains 25 percent of your daily intake of saturated fat, nad enjoying it too often can raise your LDL scores. Kicking back with a bowl of creamy Greek yogurt every once in a while, however is a necessary indulgence.
