I agree - I think that factory farming has really helped it.

There are no health risks for commercially raised animal products,

although presumably there would be compared to grassfed. Check out:

http://www.ravnskov.nu/cholesterol.htm

the most well rounded such site

http://medicaltruth.com/cholesterol/myth.htm

the article is in PDF, but its very well written and enjoyable. Its

an article that appeared in the atlantic monthly in 1989.

http://www.sover.net/~timw/fat.htm

" The soft science of dietary fat " article published in Science, a

very prestigious peer-reviewed research journal. Its not technical so

you should have no problems reading it.

http://www.second-opinions.co.uk/cholesterol_myth_1.html

kinda long-winded, but has some good stuff. Worth checking out just

for the graph that compares margarine consumption to heart disease

rates.

and finally, I did a literature review pn cholesterol, which is

article 6401 in the archives of this group.

I'm not sure about milk, but beef, absolutely, eggs, very probably, though

eggs from battery chickens have so much bad stuff in them I sometimes

wonder. I wouldn't touch any meat from non-ruminants raised the standard

way, though, as their fat will be completely different from the healthy fat

of their naturally-raised relatives.

I was just looking back at old stuff and found this reference, which no

longer seems to be available. Do you have a copy or know where it can be

found now?
