What else they were eating is what I was wondering, too. Cancer seems
to have triggers, and then also needs growth promoters. If what Loren
Cordain is saying about betacellulin is true, then it doesn't take
much dairy to promote cancer growth. One would need access to the raw
data. This particular study doesn't mention dairy consumption.
