I have to admit to being clueless about breast cancer. My family cancer of 
preference is kidney cancer. I have always associated estrogen with breast 
cancer and had no idea that NL has such a high incidence of breast cancer. 
Do you think this is correlated to their high dairy consumption?

I know their burgeoning increase in height has been associated with the 
growth hormones in dairy and always thought I was safe as I am short by 
dutch standards plus don't really consume much dairy at all in comparison to 
the SAD diet.

I'm not sure about clean unprocessed dairy not being paleo and I know this 
has been discussed here many times but you have a point about the growth 
hormones.
