Dr. Weeks Comment: Ask anyone who drinks a lot of milk to do a simple experiment. Stop all dairy for a week. Then drink a large glass of milk. Wait 20 minutes. Start needing to clear throat. Mucous starts to accumulate. Simple test.
More complicated tests are far more worrisome. Read what Robert Cohen, the not-milk man writes:
Drinking 3 Glasses of Milk Daily Doubles Death Risk

and building your wings on the way down.”

On August 14th, 2016, The Sun newspaper
of London (Yasmin Jeffery) reported:
“COW’S milk has long been recommended by
doctors and nutritionists for its ability to
boost calcium ingestion and keep bones strong
and healthy. But according to new research,
dairy products do little to strengthen bones,
and can double the risk of an early death.”
Ice cream is delicious. So is pizza. Enjoy the ride
and hope that your risk is not worth the ultimate
“rewards” of premature death & unhealthy irony.
The British Medical Journal study reveals the
science that no amount of phony marketing will
be able to overturn. In addition to shortening
longevity, researchers found that the more milk
and dairy products one consumes, the greater is
the rate of bone fractures and osteoporosis.
After monitoring over 106,700 people for 20
years (61,433 women & 45,339 men), author Karl
Michaelsson, of Uppsala U. in Sweden, concluded:
“Our results question the validity of
recommendations to consume high amounts of milk
to prevent fragility fractures. A higher consumption
of milk in women and men is not accompanied by a
lower risk of fracture and instead may be associated
with a higher rate of death. ”

“I don’t have a particular recommendation
other than that we base decisions on as
much hard data as possible. We need to
carefully look at all the options and all
their ramifications in making our decisions.”
