Just read the conclusion and implication and its very weak

 

BTW Had to edit the link to make it work - try cutting and pasting

each line here into your browser

Interesting link but pretty limited in range of study. Seems to agree

that prostrate cancer is linked to high dietary fats but minimises

dairy link.

 

It's generally well known that Chinese breast cancer rates are really

low. Thought by many to be due to high soy and no milk diets.

Prostrate

cancer rates are even more amazing. Rural Chinese 0.5 per

100,000, Urban Chinese 2, Hong Kong 8, Nagasaki 9, Hiroshima 11,

England and Wales 28, USA white 101,USA black 137 per 100,000.

(Cancer Incidence in Five Continents, 1997,vol V11, published by

IARC, part of WHO)

 

(Posted this elsewhere and was argued with that consumption of green

tea was responsible. Agree it's part of the mix as is low pollution

and other factors.)

 

Milk is very strongly implicated in breast cancers. It contains

oestrogens plus IGF's (insulin like growth factors) which signal

cells to multiply. Human and cow IGF's are identical. Good for calves

who grow at enormeous rates, not so good for people.

 

Will find some links or finally get round to writing my own pages on

it.

 

Meanwhile have a look at PETA site on milk

Good news lads. Just been re reading Jane Plant Your Life in Your

Hands re IGF in milk.

 

Recent research by Cancer Epedemiology Dept at Oxford Uni showed

vegan men have IGF levels 9% lower than meat eaters and vegetarians.

1998 study showed men who developed prostrate cancer had 8% higher

IGF level than men who remained healthy.

 

Must be a good connection there.
