I am trying to find out if I should and why.

I believe it is hyperinsulinism resulting from excessive consumption of
carbohydrates, specifically sugar in all forms, grains, potatoes.

Cholesterol is NOT my concern. I eat 1 - 2 dozen eggs per day. I am not
worried about ingesting cholesterol. As far as I know my cholesterol does
not go up when I eat like that.

I am not eating dairies for calcium. If I get any from them, that's fine.

Ahh, here we are getting somewhere. What is the harm in IGF-I in dairies?
How much of it are we getting? Is it naturally present there or added
by producers? If naturally present then why are we worried about
eating dairies and not worried about meat and all other animal products
that contains naturally present hormones? Are dairies specifically
rich in this one hormone and it's very dangerous? If it's not naturally
present then will eating organic dairies eliminate the problem?
 
What about my little list of questions? Answers to them would really
clear things up in my mind.
