Do not worry, milk will not give you ovarian cancer, Kindred.
Seriously, milk is fine, soy is fine, meat is fine, carrots are fine, all these things are good for you... in moderation. That is, make sure you have a wide variety of foods, do not drink only milk or eat only chicken or whatever. Have lots of different stuff.
Plus, most of the studies they do trying to show that this or that food gives you cancer, they do them on sedentary individuals. If you leave your bike outside in the rain over the winter and it gets rusty, did the rain cause the rust, or was it really that you weren't riding and caring for the bike?

i have a nagging feeling that many studies have a pre-determined outcome in mind at the beginning and often aren't broad enough to give 'true' findings. It's a generalisation i know but there's just not enough solid information in that blurb to make an informed decision that milk is bad. Doesn't help that the author deosn't like it.
You could always give the good doc's special cocoa powder a try (wonder if that's been peer reviewed to make sure it's above the line?).

sorry to go off topic a bit here but when you talk about studies having a pre-determined outcome here is a perfect example . The study that came out years ago that eggs where bad for you and are full of cholesterolwas actually funded by The American Grain Growers Foundation. Have a think about that!!

Cows drink milk humans don`t.Or at least we didn`t a loooooong time ago.
We have developed certain enzymes so we have evolved to be able to digest milk.
20 or 30 years ago ( maybe even longer-can`t remember) when obesity and associated diseases were increasing everything was demonized.Eggs,potatoes,milk,cheese,meat,the list goes on and on but it was all just massive BS.
Even as a kid my brother,sister and I used to drink litres of it.We had 2 10l bags delivered every week and none of us had/any problems.

off topic but I think franco columbu advises that bodybuilders not eat yogurt as it produces a layer of fat under the skin?
