Or should I say "marginally less unhealthy"? Because there's still the other crud in dairy, and phytates also steal iron and no doubt other minerals present in grains. Better to stick to Paleo, and avoid the whole convoluted argument of how to add crap to shit and somehow make food out of the resulting mess. Pardon my French, as they say.
