"You can leed a person, but you can't make they{sic} learn." As Rush Limbaugh says, Americans have the right to be stupid... You calling me stupid? I guess you are. If you're going to talk about stupid Americans, which apparntly includes me, spell correctly. It's "lead", not "leed". I have a background in science: Biology, physiology and anatomy. I'm not buying the nonsense that milk makes you sick. If that's true, I'd like to see some actual scientific studies from an unbiased source. As I said, not everyone has lactose intolerance and can digest it just fine. If the proteins and sugars (lactose) in milk cause disease and illness, then the same would be true of other animal-based proteins (and there are those that believe that to be true). And since humans are designed to be omniverous (check out the dentition and digestive systems),and that includes meat and dairy products, I'm not afraid to eat meat and dairy products.

And of course Americans have the right to be obese and to have a variety of medical problems. Nice. Neither my husband nor I are obese or ill, and we both eat meat and consume dairy products. So do millions of other perfectly healthy, normal weight Americans - as well as millions of non-Americans. Overeating and lack of exercise cause obesity and obesity-related illness. Whole milk just isn't the culprit here. Please stop the hyperbole.

Hillary, Rush Limbaugh, the Dems, Social Security and dying before reaching SS age - What a list of demons here. Hillery and the Dems figured out that if Americans died before they reached Social Security age that it would save the Gov. a lot of money which they could then spend on the Welfare state for the Dems. constituents. Have you tied this to drinking milk? Puhleeeeze. More hyperbole, and just a tad conspiratorial.

Go call someone else "stupid".

Studies on the evils of milk. A study was done at the Oregon Health Sciences University and published in Circulation in 1993 (vol. 88, p. 2771-9) on milk intake and the death from coronary heart disease-the largest killer of all of both men and women. The populations of 40 different countries were studied. The people who drank the most milk had the highest death rate. Finland had the greatest milk intake and the highest death rate......The MRFIT Study was one of the largest and longest of all human studies on heart and artery health. The average American has a cholesterol level of 250 and suffers about 250% more deaths every year. The lower your cholesterol the better and the only sourse of cholesterol is animal products like meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products. Seafood in moderation does not raise your cholesterol level. Copied word for word from Zen Macrobiotics for Americans by Roger Mason. For those of you who would like to learn more about healthy living you may want to visit Young Again Nutrients to read more concerning which foods are better for you. See, I'm trying help you Conservatives concerning your health. The Democrates don't care if you live past age 62 or not. If you don't, they won't have to give you your retirement benefits. I want you to be healthy, wealthy, and wise into your retirement years. I have heard far too many stories about guys who smoked, drank, and ate steak every day and then had a stroke and were 3/4s paralysed for the rest of their lives. Or, (Pardon the punctuation) Had a stroke or a heart attack and just plain died. Vegetables, beans, Brown rice and whole grains are good for you. Live
