Meat & Dairy = Cancer & Heart Disease

[jamesjjjspike]

Where did this play? on mainstream media and they didn't axe it? DAMN!!

[LuckynumberSlevin11]

Can you get protein from plants? No. hahahahhahaha. so dumb

[eatforenergy]

@LuckynumberSlevin11 what is protein? Amino acids. Do plants contain all amino acids yes! What does the body do with protein? Breaks it down into amino acids so it can be utilized. Amino acids are the basic building blocks of enzymes, hormones, proteins, and body tissues. Skip the difficult digestion and toxicity and eat alkalizing foods. Why do I even bother? so dumb

[LuckynumberSlevin11]

@eatforenergy Hey I agree with you wholeheartedly but Americans are still dumb and ignorant. I don't think I was that clear with my sarcasm. TBH I can't remember what I was saying and my original comment is exactly the opposite of what I think. Funny. Sorry for riling you I know the feeling. Funny.

[eatforenergy]

@LuckynumberSlevin11 Sorry I came down on the wrong side of your comment. Yes its sad that people are so clueless. Thats the way the powers that be want us. We are just pawns in the game. They want to feed us garbage, poison us with toxic injections and pills. America is the zombie nation. People mindlessly going about their lives without a thought of anything of real importance. It quite sad if you think about it. God helps us all!

[LuckynumberSlevin11]

Americans are dumb. Ignorance is splattered all over this news report

[carmikeman]

what r they gonna due next, outlaw hamburgers!!! live and eat the way u want to. nobody is telling me what to eat because after i do die, i won't be eating very much.

[MrFoodismylife]

The national dairy association disagrees and says dairy is good for you... like they are goona say its bad?.... imma take the objective scientist anyday

[SlumberCloud]

I have not had milk products since I was 13. Im 26 and my bones are healthy. So is my weight. Im under 100 pounds, in fcat now almost under 90.

[rwdford]

I think this video is not giving a balanced view, raw dairy can be very good for you, look up Dr Weston Price,(his excellent book called: Nutrition and Physical Degeneration) it appears we cannot thrive on a totally plant based diet, although I totally agree plant based diets have a lot of good to offer, particularly raw juicing is excellent for everyone, but studies of ancient cultures have shown the healthiest disease free people were also consuming raw dairy or large amounts of sea food.

[UMakeTheConnection]

@rwdford I would recommend you watch "Food That Kills"

/watch?v=0r3uGuWDlGU

I once thought the way you did, but can't imagine consuming any dairy ever again. We are the only mammals on the planet that consume dairy after being weaned. It is loaded (raw milk) with approx. 80 different hormones. It is a life support for a newborn mammal. Milk is liquid meat. Factory farmed milk is worse of course due to antibiotics, pasteurization & Posilac in some.

/watch?v=yMHvMAUDHj4

[TheDeziren]

@rwdford Humans are naturally herbivores, not omnivores. You can thrive on a plant based diet, but not on an animal based diet. Plant protein is what we need, not animal. Things like Iron, B12 and calcium are not only obtained through animal foods, but some people seem to think that they are. Even the vitamins and minerals in plants are more easily absorbed than those from animals. Try to look more at newer research, rather than old.

[UMakeTheConnection]

@TheDeziren You are absolutely correct. It`s also important to determine the `source`of the research or study, as I have found many can be funded by the meat and dairy industry, (indirectly) or others with `direct corporate interests``.

[ToolsnFire]

@TheDeziren, can you live in the wild on plant foods? For example, in Southern California, using only native plant foods? Or if not, where in the world could someone do that? And when was the last time humans did so?

[daro2096]

@rwdford

If you want to consume a food that contains blood, pus and pooh that is your choice. Consuming animal products makes your blood ph too acidit. Your body then leeches calcium from your bones to counter it and then its urinated out. After 50 years you bones are so weak they are easily broken. freedomyou com/nutrition_book/milk%20and%­20cookies

[heightboosting]

its hard for people to give up meat which they have been eating their whole life, thats why they make so many excuses to why they can have their heroin addicted meat !! Meat destroys your health and triggers cancer !! It accumulates over time so dont think because you are not sick now that you wont become terribly ill in the future !! Wake up !!! Do the research !!!

[HybridD91]

What do you tell a mother who feeds their children milk? Breast feed bitch, if they aren't babies, use Rice, Almond, and/or Soy Milk. Try some veggies. Some veggies have calcium and isn't as acidic in comparison to dairy products.

[daro2096]

@HybridD91

I know a woman whos still breastfeeding her son at over 1 years old. 99% of women today make the huge mistake of stopping breastfeeding their baby at 6 months or even younger. In olden times you were breastfeeding a child for at least 3 or 4 years.

Cows milk is the worst food you can give to an infant.

[gheeist]

interesting that Weston A. Price has found the exact opposite to be true in all his studies and research. All the cultures he has studied are the healthiest when they are on high dairy/meat diets. Every constitution/body type, every culture, every lifestyle seems to benefit from different diets. There is never one that is "right".

[Tharagus]

I hate China so why would i like the "china Study" .........JK .......but seriously if we have teath to eat it then i will continue to eat it.

[theusedjosh]

go vegetarianism:)

[ananasjuice4]

Grains fed to cattle are often genetically modified with much pesticides.

[ckkidd11]

@ananasjuice4

Incorrect. Pestisides are used to protect the crop against "pests" i.e. insects.

[ananasjuice4]

It's important to differentiate between organic meat/dairy and non-organic which usually would contain high amounts of pesticides, chemicals from fertilizers, bovine growth hormone, antibiotics, PCBs (stored in fat); many of which have been proven to cause cancer and other problems, over-use of antibiotics causes bacterial resistance to them. Not too mention that livestock mostly eat grains which is not their average food and brings to mind many more health risks.

[worldpeaceweare1]

Meat and Dairy is directly link to the cause of most Heart Disease, Cancer, and diabetes... This has all been proven in the china study... Yes babies doo need milk but milk from its mother from the same species... not from a 2 ton cow thats hormones levels and protein levels are different from what a human child needs.... the human body is designed to be a plant eater just like all other forms of apes... If we were designed to eat meat our digestive systems would be similiar to a lion but itsnot

[UMakeTheConnection]

Thank you and I hope people do take the time to read The China Study. There is so much information out their supporting a plant based diet, yet it is not well reported thanks to media ownership, bias and corruption, in addition to big pharma who prefer us sick rather than healthy, for obvious reasons.

[TheFartWorks]

Nonsense, animal products/flesh/eggs/milk(wheth­er one or all) are essential for us to be our best. Our bodies reveal the truth with time, not inaccurate 'comparative anatomy'. Tools, Fire, and Ingenuity with diet have made our species.

[UMakeTheConnection]

@TheFartWorks Of course I take advice from all junk sites on YouTube about my health choices. I'm sure TheFartWorks knows about Farts, but not about health. You might want to pick up a book and read some studies.

[TheFartWorks]

@UMakeTheConnection , if you only knew,... you're statements are full of balogna/baloney. The China study is 'incomplete' in considerations covering 'all' the aspects in living as it relates to diet. I'm very experienced with all this, including how it relates to my health, and other peoples' experiences. Failure to thrive over the long term is the standard on vegan/raw vegan, and lopsided vegetarian diets. It's about balance and quality with whatever is eaten, farts aside.

[TheFartWorks]

@UMakeTheConnection, fart for health. Meat and animal products definitely make for more strength and stronger tissues. Farts are most common with bulky carbohydrates such as fruits, vegetables, and then of course 'contentious' foods such as milk and beans, depending on the individual. All that even with a clean and lean body system. I've been in the dietary health field since 1984, results speak for themselves. Be aware of what your body indicates. The standards rule. Look at humanhistory

[kryptilian]

@TheFartWorks

How have you been in dietetics so long without having to dole out "official" guidelines? Are you a registered dietician? Also, when switching from a heavy meat to mainly plant diet, there are upsets while the body's enzyme production levels and intestinal flora change to accomodate the change.

I'm not trying to be a dick, just curious for more information. I've seen one dietician in my life, who told me that muffins, crackers, and milk are okay but they made me sick.

[TheFartWorks]

@kryptilian, here's the deal: your body's an engine. What you consume will give you results you can discern. Do cleansing, that's all good if you got gunked up with food or quantities your body couldn't adequately process. Ok, so that's basically taken care of. Now go out, live to perform, get in tune with your body, consume, get in tune, be aware of what your body indicates. Go on the results that your body practically reveals. Again, live to perform as a physical and mental being.

[daro2096]

@TheFartWorks

Plant based diet is much better. There are children been brought up on a vegan diet from day 1 and they are much stronger than children raised on meat and dairy. I rather get my nutrition first hand.

[ToolsnFire]

@daro2096, what you just said is not true. You're on the diet religion bandwagon, veganism is not human, except in unusual circumstances of limited choice. I know what I'm talking about, by deep personal experience/s and observations. The generalist omnivores are much stronger than those raised vegan.

[daro2096]

@ToolsnFire

Drinking the milk of other animals is not natural. Only humans consume milk after their been weaned. No animal on Earth would be stupid enough to drink milk they can't digest properly.

What I said was fact. You can get all your vitamins and minerals from fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains.

B12 comes from bacteria in animals. You do not have to eat the animal or drink its milk to get B12.

Meat eaters have heart disease, cancers. You hardly hear of a vegan dying from these ailments.

[daro2096]

@ToolsnFire

The dark green leafy vegetables have the highest rates of calcium.

Typical North American consumes something like 1700mg of calcium through drinking milk but their don't absorb any of it, it passes right through their system plus calcium leeched from the bones urinated out. A typical African consumes something like 500mg of calcium through a plant based diet and absorbs most of it without losing any from the bones.

[daro2096]

@ToolsnFire

Someone who has been vegan all their life will be much stronger than someone who has been eating meat and diary all their life. A vegan won't have any bone diseases or diabetes.

I know 80+ year old vegans who can run 5 miles a day still. Show me a meat eater of the same age that can do the same(assuming they live that long for vegans live 11 years longer).

[ToolsnFire]

@UMakeTheConnection, if you only knew. Different people have different requirements(Mercola and others have classified that). So many people have had problems with the body's integrity going vegan, raw vegan, 811, etc., not as cleansing problems, but as 'adequacy' problems. Starches, aging, imbalanced eating, low quality produced products, 'teetotaling', are most associated with heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Results with your own body are the real deal. Get in tune.

[HybridD91]

@TheFartWorks Tell Carl Lewis that.

CANCER CURE = RICK SIMPSON'S HEMP OIL

[medlmayer]

and damon, i cant help but laugh a little..as you argue for the benefits and safety of milk and steroids..such a danger to society, this idea of taking in less animal product and not using drugs which cause immunosuppression. but hey what do i know..my spouse isn't a doctor:P

[haydenvegan]

Thank you for this, it's awesome!!!

[UMakeTheConnection]

Thanks Hayden ! I wish people would read this book for starters. This is scientific and meat / dairy consumers need to at least be aware of the truth. The corporations that are pushing animal products will totally deny this claim - as they have everything to lose.

[ostroucl]

I look forward to reading that study. I don't eat meat, except fish ocassionally and I am very healthy and I look younger than most people my age.

A good book about the meat industry and diet is Diet for a New America- John Robbins

[UMakeTheConnection]

I have read Diet for a New America and admire John Robbins. Im sure you know his history with "Baskin Robbins". I guarantee you will learn more than you want to from the China Study. It is in simply terms to understand, no need to be a scientist, but I was in awe and it change the way I eat and live. No doubt, one of the best books I've ever read.

[damoninsky]

Are you people actually believing what you see on Extra than what you read in journals of Nature or Science? This was so silly to watch...."food makes you sick"..."food is medicine"...."food is toxic"...this is basic nutrition facts, nothing special...all he said was to not eat dairy...hmm, curious, since we've been eating dairy for 1000s of years and certain kinds offer incredible nutrients for our body. But if you want to go ahead and follow the commercial, be my guest.

[UMakeTheConnection]

If I offered you "human breast milk" right now today, you would be appauled. Yet, for some strange reason.. no doubt marketing and big business advertising, you believe that drinking milk from a COW who gave up her baby just to provide for the corporation she is enslaved in is good for you. You must be dreaming my friend. Cows milk is for calves... yet they never see it... that's called veal! It's not a health food, it's a cancer promoter. Sorry if you don't agree, but you may some day.

[UMakeTheConnection]

Watch "Food That Kills" on YouTube...

I thought the same way as you did about 4 years ago.... don't take my word for it - just do some research of your own.... I have absolutely nothing to gain by telling you this.... I just wish someone told me 30 years ago.

[damoninsky]

Why, do you have cancer now?

If you do, how do you know it's from milk and not from anything else you've been exposed to? We do live in a pretty polluted world,

[damoninsky]

Where is the research that proves that cow milk is a "cancer promoter". Oh, the research better be in a credited journal too...not Extra.

To say that cow milk is only for calves is like saying corn is only for crows, or apples are only for worms, or meat is only for the animal's own muscles.

Currently, milk is NOT a carcinogen...it's been consumed for 1000's of years.

A reason not to drink it would be to reduce animal suffering (as you mentioned), but NOT because it's bad for you.

[medlmayer]

If you live in the usa you are being bombarded by recombinant bovine growth hormone,a steroid given to cows. And then of course theres the whole antibiotic issue. Do you really want to assert that this isn't dangerous? Or maybe you want to assert that these things aren't cancer producing.I urge you to do some research on long-term steroid and antibiotic use and how it affects the human body. Then come back and comment. Until then, peace,love, and great waves of information upon you:)

[damoninsky]

I am very well aware of the antibiotic/hormone issue, and I eat nothing but organic meat. There is absolutely NO research that concludes that these cause CANCER. For decades now, there have been multiple studies and NOT ONE suggests this conclusion. 

These practices ARE however, bad for the environment, from run-off to bacterial resistance; this and other reasons is why I'm on organic.

YOU do the research and find a legit article in an accredited journal saying these cause cancer!

[italndiva]

there is tons of research about this..where do you live?

[damoninsky]

There IS tons of research, but there is no substantial evidence to support it causes cancer. You won't find a credible science journal that suggests otherwise.

I'm in Oregon/California

[UMakeTheConnection]

You may want to watch "Milk -The Deadly Poison" as well as " Food That Kills"

Also, if this doesn't help you may want to check out the book "The China Study" or perhaps the DVD "Eating" check out Dr. McDougall's website drmcdougall(dot)com Listen my friend, I have nothing to gain by sharing this information. It's totally up to you to discover this for yourself. We have been brainwashed & spoon fed by corporate media and agri business. I'm too old for arguing, either you take it or leave it.

[damoninsky]

I'm well aware of corporate media, but I'm also aware of unbiased accreted science articles/journals.

I like documentaries, but I also recognize they're bias and agendas which tend to focus on certain info while leaving other info (just as pertainent) out.

I know there is TONS of crap wrong with our agro system...I just read Pollan's books...but there is no proven connection between milk and cancer...yet.

[italndiva]

It is both. How can a cow's milk be good for you? It is from another species and not meant for people. It is meant for calves. Which they take from a grieving mother, fact, and just literally milk these cows until they are worthless. Nothing natural about putting a cow on a milking machine and taking the life out of a cow for years until they kill it for the meat or dump it at the side of a road, sometimes. We all must EVOLVE into compassion.

[damoninsky]

"How can cow milk be good for you?"

Calcium

Vitamin D (if fortified)

Fats

Protein

These are CRUCIAL for development and living. It's not hard to realize why we've been using milk for 1000's of years.  We've also used animal muscles for 1000's of years too! We've also used different PLANT species and their ovaries for food too. In fact, we get LOTS of good stuff from other species!

I agree cows need to be treated better, but this doesn't mean that "milk causes cancer"..that's just wrong.

[italndiva]

Calcuim~The most healthful calcium sources are green leafy vegetables and legumes

Vitiamin D~The sun..15 minutes a day and you will get a zillion mg of the BEST D ever

Fats~everywhere and milk fats are very BAD for you.

Protein~Broccoli, green leafy veggies, soy, Americans actually get too much protein. Read some suggested books as you are living in the dark ages 1,000 of years ago. We do not need one thing that we can not get from a whole plant based diet and extend our lives.

[damoninsky]

But vegetables are from different species.

If you live in polar regions, you don't have 15 minutes of sun.

"milk fats"? how are they different from other fats? People all over the world depend on goats and cows for milk fat/protein and calcium. They are STAYING ALIVE because of milk.

One of your main arguments is that since milk is from a different species, therefore we shouldn't consume it...well PLANTS are from different species too!

[italndiva]

You are grasping at straws and I really want people who have an open mind. I have provided you with much information as have others on this page yet you keep wanting to *fight*. I am done as you can answer any of your questions by googling or asking your doctors. All my doctors are vegan so I know they know as much as any of us and more. So please you are a very stubborn person who doesn't want to hear truths or go outside a box of what you keep saying over and over. 1,000 years. It is boring!!

[damoninsky]

For the record, my wife is a doctor and I personally know dozens of doctors and NONE of them are vegan. Yours or my sample size is meaningless.

None of your information provides PROOF that milk causes cancer!!!!

Just accept that. It's ok to complain about our food industry and to give reasons why we shouldn't drink milk or eat meat or non-organic, but you at least have to give FACTUAL information (which there is plenty of)...you don't have to scare people with made-up cancer facts.

[italndiva]

Your wife could be a podiatrist for all I know. I am taking about real life great doctors. Maybe we are more aware of nutrient ion here in CA yet the points you make/made are different than what EVERYONE on this page is saying. It is like you asking the meaning of peace..I tell you and you fight saying 1,000 years ago we never had peace. I doubt you ever read a book telling how bad milk is and it is FILLED with pus from lesions. You can't accept the TRUTH we give so why bother us? GO AWAYYYYYY

[damoninsky]

I am correcting a single fact, here...Find A SINGLE science journal article that proves "milk causes cancer".

If "EVERYONE on this page" is saying milk causes cancer, then your "page" is a cult. California is full of them! I'd like to think you aren't in one simply because MOST of what you say is true.

If milk causes cancer, every news media outlet would be all over it and they wouldn't be selling it. Journalists have decided to ignore your sources.

My wife is family physician.

[italndiva]

Please leave me alone and check out PCRM..Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine who are ALL Physicians who have DEDICATED their lives to the TRUTH of animals and how bad they are to eat. Most doctors only take ONE nutrient class during their whold studies. I have co-authored a book and have done more research then most people. I would suggest that YOU pick up a book and read about what the truth is. The person who put this video on has suggested a number of books. Get educated then speak

[damoninsky]

I don't believe everything that are in books; I'll go check out the NEJM, we get that.

[damoninsky]

OK, New England Journal of Medicine titles:

1. Children Still Need Milk and Sunshine (Bishop N)

2. Vitamin D Deficiency (Holick MF)

These both suggest that milk SHOULD be consumed. I couldn't find anything on "milk causes cancer". Maybe if you could locate these articles that show overwhelming evidence that milk causes cancer, that would satisfy me and your guilty conscience for publishing false information.

[UMakeTheConnection]

The next time you're in a book store (if that could ever happen), pick up The China Study and look in the back under references. There should be about 35 pages of references  which support these findings. If your wife is a doctor, she should have no problem finding and accessing some of these. Don't kill the messenger.

[italndiva]

It is in the New England Journel of Medicine. The doctors Bible. Now leave ME alone. You are ignorant on so many levels.

[medlmayer]

if your wife is a doctor, then you know that steroids cause cancer..you wanted proof of that, (since this is the primary issue behind the animal protein issue in the united states,) just look at hannah clark's incidence of cancer even as she made an incredible regeneration of her heart. the immunosuppressive drugs, (steroids,) caused cancer. why do you keep arguing with people?? do you work for the meat industry lol?

[damoninsky]

What are you talking about? Doctors prescribe steroids all the time!

All I'm saying is that MILK DOES NOT CAUSE CANCER! This video is spilling disinformation and people are buying it. I'm not doing this because I like to argue, I'm doing this because I don't want people to blindly accept wrong information.

Now here YOU are spouting disinformation about steroids.

[medlmayer]

doctors prescribe prozac and ritalin all the time as well, and we all know how safe those are. and the suggestion that BECAUSE a doctor prescribes a drug is testament enough as to it's safety, is absurd. as to disinformation, truly steroids are the single most dangerous drug class in the usa, due to their wide and regular use. and i doubt this blind acceptance you purport exists. there is no reason for anyone to hold either of us up as authorities and not inform themselves independently.

[damoninsky]

Where did you hear "steroids are the single most dangerous drug class in the US"? I would think alcohol or nicotine would be; but that's irrelevant.

There's no point in singling out a drug as being bad when it does WAY more good than harm. Ritalin does GREAT things for people who really need it, of course it's abused and results in consequences, but that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be prescribed. People abuse painkillers, they can even KILL, but that doesn't mean that they're bad.

[italndiva]

yes! Milk is from GRIEVING mother's! Who ever thought of drinking another species secretions?

[damoninsky]

who ever thought of eating another species muscles?

[italndiva]

yes, or using the stomach of cows or pigs for gelatin? Or wearing dead animals skin for fashion. So many horrible things we do to abuse and use animals. If you take one day and pay attention to things that people do each day that involves cruelty to animals it is an overload! I keep finding out things they use animals for all over the world and it is just disgusting. I think if we were intented to use animals the way we do they would have been created not to feel or have nervous systems. xo

[Protoscrianza]

Open your eyes people.

[androclestipster]

Excellent info video my friend. Thanks for posting it. If only we would all listen up.

[FynFlyte]

Is that interviewer a bit slow. She is speaking as if she has difficulty with English

[thefutureisvegan]

The Dairy Industry: "benefits of dairy established for decades". Who paid who for the research? LMAO

[UMakeTheConnection]

No kidding.... the question is always "WHO" paid for the research... they don't mention those important facts when announcing new studies.

Buyer beware.... check your facts and don't take the first word as the final word.

[thefutureisvegan]

This research/book totally demolishes the animal protein myth and what constitutes an appropriate diet for humans. The research is robust, reputable and irrefutable. Yet powerful interests override this sort of information and so many people are dullards even when it's in their own interests to know these facts.

Caught in the middle are millions of suffering animals.

[journeyman47]

Why is anyone suprised at this news? Any doctor or nutritionist knows all this... but nobody wants to hear it.

[manque15]

I agree...its one of the basically fundimental things we should know yet people are surprised. Our bodies are thee most amazing things for curing ourselves if we just stop putting all the chemicals in our bodies and not giving ourselves the chance to heal natually.

[journeyman47]

Very true.

[UMakeTheConnection]

Thanks manque... I can always depend on you to provide backup on these important issues. Our bodies depend on nutrition to function fully and we are so brainwashed to eat fast food/processed food. Sadly those that are sick are in deep with the medical association... just stop eating the garbage and our bodies will respond accordingly. Thanks for your comment and I'm still enjoying all your wonderful recipes !!!

[DianeDi]

You're right, nobody wants to think they aren't eating well, particularly when our government, corporate marketing / advertising departments and of course our one sided media tell us the opposite.

It's truly time that "we the people" take back our health. Never mind worrying as much about the health care situation in the U.S. If we eat nutrient rich foods, grains, legumes, veg and fruit, "we the people" can put them out of business.

[journeyman47]

Yes!
