Hi Axel:

This is just a quick answer (I'm still swamped) to your very good
questions about the Hunza/dairy products issue.

My point was that they are using them.  According to some of the
arguments on the list, if you use **any** dairy, then you are dooming
yourself to a short and painful death (okay, maybe I'm exaggerating just
a bit :-)) and you can't possibly get any health benefits from it.

What I was trying to say is that long-lived and older cultures use dairy
successfully and don't appear to have any negative effects because of
it.  I know that they have lots of other things going on (the exercise,
relationships, etc., that you pointed out), but dairy isn't detrimental.
