There's a connection with any kind of milk and prostate cancer If you are in a high risk group, cut out all dairy products.

I saw some news pieces that indicated a possible statistical correlation. No one has identified a causative factor or mechanism. Worth further research, but not enough to make me stop drinking milk.

yes, the reason I answer this way is low carb diets are a good way to treat or even prevent prostate cancer. Non-fat,lowfat, skim milk are higher in sugars and are not staples on the low carb diet. http://www.upmccancercenters.com/news/reuters/reuters.cfm?article=13274 http://www.healthcentral.com/prostate/news-196076-66.html Here is a blog of a physician who uses the low carb diet to fight cancer: http://livinlavidalocarb.blogspot.com/2007/09/german-wurzburg-cancer-trial-shows.html Oh, and here is a good site for various low carb diets: http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/
