What Next?

Holy shit! It is getting so that everything our doctors and nutritionists tell us to do to stay healthy is not true. I have been drinking crap low fat/nonfat milk for years since I was told by the doctors that whole milk was just slow suicide.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The amount of calcium and vitamin D in the diet appears to have little or no impact on the risk of prostate cancer, but the consumption of low-fat or nonfat milk may increase the risk of the malignancy, according to the results of two studies published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.

Dietary calcium and dairy products have been thought to increase the risk of prostate cancer by affecting vitamin D metabolism. Data from several prospective studies have supported an association, but many other studies have failed to establish a link.

Remember all the crap about butter? How about eggs? Now we know both are good foods and that butter is much better for you than margarine with all of its trans fat. I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that anything that we process when it comes to food does some harm. If it is not natural then it is probably suboptimal. Chances are if man messes with it he will mess it up. Now that I think of it..that will be my new watchword...Messed with = Messed up = Not Food.
