Answer:

Obesity

Explanation:

Research evidences suggest that the consumption of whole milk reduces the likelihood of obesity in children and adults. The current practice by the dairy industry will result in a decrease in less milk fat and results of researches suggest that high dairy fat intake can reduce the risk of obesity.
