I read the book too, and recommended the local library purchase it, but they

refused to.

The China Study is another book with long term research on protein (mainly

casein) and cancer. I skimmed the original (long) post, but excuse me if that

is the book referred to!

Thanks for *Sharing* (Volunteering, Communicating, Understanding

Justness.

I will pass it on to my wife and daughter and consider it for myself

My son is already off dairy (has been for years) as we found that worked best

for him *very directly,* (from such data? as with direct observation, of what is

so primary, and being somewhat in charge of that situation) of his not being

able to speak and we having to understand what was best for him so.. .

Dairy causes us to lose our wits for ourselves, somewhat like an addiction,

perhaps (if not merely a passion) Some might want to consider treating it that

way, at least as regards giving it a fair trial, which I feel we all should do

where we haven't, from what I'm hearing and seeing so far, and more and more as

time goes by. I'm considering it a priority (as I continue chelating, the AC

way, more or less.. .).

Thanks again.
