I’ve been craving milk lately, and drinking a bit of it the last few days, more than I have ever drunk before.

Reviewing this “unnatural” craving, I figured that I had better check and see what effects milk has towards cancer. There are so many good and bad things to consider in a cancer diet – things that might surprise you. Through advertising, we have been taught that milk is good for us – Milk Does A Body Good.

And as it turns out – milk is one.
A bad thing.
A cancer feeder.

I think back to right before I was diagnosed. I was following the Adkin’s high protein diet. Not a good cancer diet… Why does conventional medicine not recognize the importance of a cancer diet? Why did my doctor not educate himself on the good and bad foods and vitamins and minerals to put into our bodies? Why is conventional medicine so ignorant and non-accepting?

The Dairy Education Board – JUNE 21, 1998
“Linda McCartney – a breast cancer victim, a vegetarian activist who endorsed the consumption of milk and dairy products. Did Linda know that cow’s milk contains a hormone that is the key factor in the growth and proliferation of every breast cancer? That hormone, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), is an exact match between humans and cows. Did Linda or her oncologists realize that every twelve-ounce glass of milk doubles the amount of this naturally occurring growth hormone in her own body, a hormone that makes existing breast cancers grow?”

This information was suspect over 10 years ago? That’s just scary…

Milk Causes Cancer Too

Mother’s milk of all different mammals contain different ‘cocktails’ of growth factors. These growth factors enhance growth and development of different organs in suckling. Adults consuming whatever milk, always absorb those growth factors too. Cells in adults however, don’t need to multiply that fast anymore. And of course cow’s-milk-growth factors are not meant for humans.

Besides stimulating growth of normal cells, growth factors unfortunately also stimulate growth of cells that have been damaged by mutagenic substances (from prepared foods, polluted air etc.). If DNA / RNA has been damaged, this may cause cancer.

Preventing cancer is about decreasing intake of mutagenic substances (consume as little proteinous prepared foods), and about preventing absorption of growth factors other than those from human milk by the suckling. Consume as little prepared food and do not consume any kind of milk.

Does Milk Cause Cancer?

Q
I’ve seen conflicting articles about milk consumption and cancer. Does it raise or lower the risk?
A
Answer (Published 3/30/2007)

You raise an interesting question. Recently, a Harvard researcher gave a provocative talk on the association between cancer and cow’s milk and other milk products. The scientist, Ganmaa Davaasambuu, M.D., Ph.D., a native Mongolian, noted that ingestion of natural estrogens from cows (particularly from pregnant cows) in milk may be linked to breast, prostate, and testicular cancers in humans. All are “hormone-dependent” tumors, meaning that they need sex hormones to grow.

Organic milk is better in many respects than conventional milk but still may be full of natural hormones. My advice: cut down on dairy products except low-fat ones. Substitute soy milk for cow’s milk when possible.

So… I’m thinking I will refrain from dairy for the time being.
Just in case…
