Is anything good for you? What am I supposed to eat and drink? Sorry I did leave out that lowfat/1% milk was included. I drink either nonfat or lowfat anyway.

What is not as important as how Eat slowly Chew everything 50 times (drink food) Don't eat after 4pm Eat a big meal in the morning small at lunch Eat all fruits possible with the peel No chocolate No sugar No fruit drinks (1 glass OJ is made from 5-6 OJs can you eat 5-6 of them) do all that and you are half way there Nonfat milk linked to prostate cancer 1 hour, 37 minutes ago NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The amount of calcium and vitamin D in the diet appears to have little or no impact on the risk of prostate cancer, but the consumption of low-fat or nonfat milk may increase the risk of the malignancy, according to the results of two studies published in the American Journal of Epidemiology. ADVERTISEMENT Dietary calcium and dairy products have been thought to increase the risk of prostate cancer by affecting vitamin D metabolism. Data from several prospective studies have supported an association, but many other studies have failed to establish a link. To explore this topic further, Dr. Song-Yi Park, from the University of Hawaii in Honolulu, and colleagues, analyzed data from subjects enrolled in the Multiethnic Cohort Study. This study, conducted between 1993 and 2002, included adults between 45 and 75 years old, were primarily from five different ethnic or racial groups, and lived in California or Hawaii. A total of 82,483 men from the study completed a quantitative food frequency questionnaire and various factors, such as weight, smoking status, and education levels were also noted, Park's group said. During an average follow-up period of 8 years, 4,404 men developed prostate cancer. There was no evidence that calcium or vitamin D from any source increased the risk of prostate cancer. This held true across all racial and ethnic groups. In an overall analysis of food groups, the consumption of dairy products and milk were not associated with prostate cancer risk, the authors found. Further analysis, however, suggested that low-fat or nonfat milk did increase the risk of localized tumors or non-aggressive tumors, while whole milk decreased this risk. In a similar analysis, Dr. Yikyung Park, from the National Cancer Institute at National Institutes (NIH) of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, and colleagues investigated the relationship of calcium and vitamin D and prostate cancer in 293,888 men enrolled in the NIH-American Association of Retired Persons Diet and Health Study, conducted between 1995 and 2001. The average follow-up period was 6 years. No link between total or supplemental dietary calcium and the total number of non-advanced prostate cancer cases was noted. Total calcium intake was tied to advanced and fatal disease, but both associations fell short of statistical significance. Similar to the first study's findings, skim milk was linked with advanced prostate cancer. Calcium from non-dairy food, by contrast, was tied to a reduced risk of non-advanced prostate cancer. "Our findings do not provide strong support for the hypothesis that calcium and dairy foods increase the risk of prostate cancer. The results from other large...studies, with adequate numbers of advanced and fatal prostate cancers, may shed further light on this question," Park's team concludes.

Lots of water, lots of veggies. I remember when they said you had to drink 8 - 8oz. of milk and get so many oz. of each food group every day. But let's face it, if you were to do that, we'd all look like the side of a barn.

I was JUST reading that on the Yahoo homepage... I gotta say WTF is up with all these studies?? I am surprised they haven't said that drinking water is bad for you. Beef is bad for you, milk is bad for you, blah blah blah. They say tomatoes are good, cranberries are good, pomegranates are good... yeah, that's today, tomorrow they're going to say they're poisonous or they cause anal leakage... ugh!

Eat and drink what you normally would because the credibility of food industry research is questionable at best. You left out that lowfat milk is included along with the nonfat BTW. Why would anyone here in V & V take this research seriously anyways? Oh yeah, it's because they agree with it. The same types of warnings have been given regarding soy and the vegers here cry "Fraud!". If you believe this article about milk you sure as hell better believe the warnings about soy, otherwise you're just enacting a double-standard and the only one who suffers is yourself.

That's the same thing I said, what the hell can we eat. They found anything to come up with.

it just affects prostate cancer does it? Then i wouldn't worry too much about it. What is more important than what kind of milk you drink, is making sure you stay fit and exercise, and have regular check ups (yearly once you're 40 yrs old for the prostate guys). Besides it DOES say there that it doesn't increase the RISK for cancer, it simply MAY BE that it MIGHT make it more LIKELY that a cancer will be more malignant. There's no give-ins there. That's all weak vague hypothesis. Men are much more likely to die WITH prostate cancer than to die FROM it (provided the proper treatment is sought). There are plenty of treatments available nowadays. Another thing to remember is that people releasing studies need to find something, so that they get more money to continue their studies. Data can be manipulated in all sorts of ways so that it appears to be important.
