Hot topics covered in the talks: is it natural to consume milk after weaning?
Indeed, is it safe to consume cow's milk at all? Why has dairy been linked to
cancers - what's the latest research? How do the many growth hormones in milk
affect us and what are the dangers of milk protein and saturated fats? We reveal
why dairy causes heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and obesity. What did the
China Study reveal? Importantly, we also examine the calcium myth. Do we - and
especially our children - need milk for calcium? If not, where should we obtain
it and how can we ensure that our kids have strong bones?
