People who have been taught that cow’s milk is the “perfect food” may be shocked to hear many prominent medical doctors are now saying dairy consumption is a contributing factor in nearly two dozen diseases of children and adults.
Doctors say cow’s milk can lead to iron deficiency anemia, allergies, diarrhea, heart disease, colic, cramps, gastrointestinal bleeding, sinusitis, skin rashes, acne, increased frequency of colds and flu, arthritis, diabetes, ear infections, osteoporosis, asthma, autoimmune diseases, and more, possibly even lung cancer, multiple sclerosis and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
In American society, one of the most sacred of all sacred cows is the milk of the cow itself. Cow’s milk is more American than apple pie, but that’s because apple pie doesn’t have Congressional lobbyists and a multi-million dollar advertising budget. Most parents wouldn’t think of raising their children without the benefit of cow’s milk to help their little bones to grow big and strong. Its silky, white texture is the very epitome of our concept of wholesome purity.
Our “nutritional education” in school (funded in part by the dairy industry) taught us that dairy products are one of the four basic food groups we all need for proper nutrition. And with more than 60 of the most powerful Congressional leaders in Washington receiving campaign contributions from the National Dairy Council, we can be assured that dairy products are well-entrenched as a major staple of our government-sponsored school lunch programs.

Here is another article that I came across recently. It points out how blacks are adversely affected by cow milk consumption. Growing up, I could drink milk like it was nothing. Today, just a little bit will upset my stomach all day. I always wondered why I never had this problem until now. I talked to other people about it, but when I found out that growth hormones was just one of the many things that are found in our milk supply, things began to make lot of sense to me.
I will provide you with some excerpts of this article, but please read the whole thing at your leisure.
Whites with European backgrounds can tolerate milk and dairy
products. Blacks with African ancestry cannot. With that
difference considered, it would be hazardous for blacks to
consume an amount of dairy equal to whites. It might even be
deadly for blacks to consume greater amounts of milk and
dairy. That is exactly what they are doing.
Ninety-five percent of African-Americans cannot tolerate
lactose. Pizza and ice cream taste delicious on the way into
their bodies. Lactose is a sugar, and most people need the
enzyme (lactase) to break down lactose into glucose and
galactose. Intact, this sugar is broken down in the
intestines by bacteria and the results are gas, bloating,
and intestinal distress.
Casein represents eighty percent of milk protein. This
tenacious glue causes histamine production, the body’s
natural defense against an invading antigen. One’s
antibodies result in mucus, and plenty of it.
Inner-city school systems like Boston, New York, Detroit,
Chicago, and Los Angeles have very large populations of
African-American students. In New York City, 38 percent of
homeless children and 25 percent of kids in the Bronx
schools have asthma. Got milk? Got cheese? These kids do,
particularly chocolate milk.
Milk contains powerful hormones. Rates of sexual maturity in
children are astounding 21st century endocrinologists and
behavioral psychologists. A recent study revealed that
eighty percent of nine-year-old African-American girls had
breast development with early sexual maturity. (more…)
Also, consider this:
Dr. Christiane Northrup, a gynecologist in Yarmouth, Maine, states, “Dairy is a tremendous mucus producer and a burden on the respiratory, digestive and immune systems.” Dr. Northrup says when patients “eliminate dairy products for an extended period and eat a balanced diet, they suffer less from colds and sinus infections.” (more…)
