MILK WILL NOW KILL YOU

Drinking lots of milk could be bad for your health, says a new study from Uppsala University in Sweden. The study involved more than 61,000 women and 45,000 men in Sweden who previously filled out dietary questionnaires for other research projects. They found:
– Women who drank three glasses of milk or more every day had a nearly doubled risk of death and cardiovascular disease, and a 44 percent increased risk of cancer compared to women who drank less than one glass per day.
– Men’s overall risk of death increased about 10 percent when they drank three or more glasses of milk daily.
Still, scientists warn, the findings only suggest an association and not a direct link. Mary Schooling, a professor at the City University of New York School of Public Health, says people should not change their diet based on these findings because more study is needed.
* From “Got milk?” to “Got life insurance?”
* Fortunately the milk lobby is tiny so this shouldn’t be a big deal.
* It’s a cow! Run for your lives!
* Give us the bottom line: Better or worse for you than beer?
* Hmm. Maybe there’s a REASON no other creature on this planet drinks milk after infancy.
* This is why I add chocolate ice cream and make a shake. To dilute the milk.
