Project Director at the Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility Campaign for Safe Food
Position:
Not Clearly Pro or Con to the question "Is drinking milk healthy for humans?"
Reasoning:
"Numerous scientific studies suggest IGF-1 [insulin-like growth factor-1] in milk survives digestion and enters the bloodstream in sufficient quantities to potentially trigger increased cancer rates... Avoid unnecessary risks to your health by checking the labels and buying only dairy products free from rBGH-treated [recombinant bovine growth hormone] cows."
