    I'm guessing you didn't bother to read it, the PDF version has a rebuttal to all the studies,

    You could read Chris Master Johns instead if you like.

    The whole premise was around Cholesterol. He took out bits that suited his agenda and twisted them.

    Any way we are going off topic, maybe @psuLemon could move this to the debate board?

    oeh... he still sites the one blogger as his main source and there is no peer rewed rebuttal.

    I eat dairy all the time (heavy cream in my coffee, cheese, yogurt). It fits into my macros.
    Incidentally, I once cut out dairy and wheat for 6 weeks as an experiment and noticed zero changes.

    Of what? A paper where they left out people who didn't fit their agenda? There was no need to review it, they twisted the data to fit.It never said what they wanted it to say so they made it fit.

    There is no science in a study that is incomplete and inaccurate.

    I think another argument against it is the lack of peers citing it in general.

    I strongly recomend to read the book "the china study". It answers your question and explanes how to eat to be healthy. Its based on real reaserch not on some "nutritionists opinion". And no, you should not be eating dairy. Its one of the leading causes of cancer and been shown to caus autoimmune disorders in childern.

    Can you post links to peer reviewed studies out-and-out stating that dairy causes cancer? Thanks.

    If you have no medical reasons not to, by all means consume dairy products. I go through a gallon of milk, a container of nonfat greek yogurt, and a container of cottage cheese every week on top of other cheese I consume, and I live alone. I have never had a single issue, and according to my doctor, I am in excellent physical condition as well as "very healthy". Don't let scare tactics and ridiculous claims force you to restrict your diet.

    Are you allergic to dairy or do you have trouble digesting it? Do you have ethical problems with it?

    If not, there's no reason to avoid it. Just account for the calories.

    THIS!

    there are a lot of studies looking into the link of dairy and different cancers, here a a few;
    https://academic.oup.com/jnci/article/97/23/1768/2521503/Prospective-Studies-of-Dairy-Product-and-Calcium
    http://cebp.aacrjournals.org/content/12/7/597.short
    http://link.springer.com/article/10.1023/A:1008823601897

    also, a fun thing i found. the one blogger that supposedly "exposed" the china study, and who started this entire thing, also said this:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFfK27B_qZY
    so, to all the people who keep naming her as their only source, yes she disagrees with the china study (the study) but she seems to support most other things in the book. so her argument was: china study bad - veganism good.

    It's perfectly plausible that someone could conclude that the China Study is bad and veganism is good. They aren't the same thing, veganism goes way beyond the China Study. And Campbell (the author of the China Study) isn't even vegan.

    I wish people would stop using the China Study to promote veganism.

    This is true, and that it was a book (with a lot of conclusions that go beyond the study), rather than a peer-reviewed paper.

    Also, this new PURE study (that Jerome Berry referred to upthread) seems to have opposite conclusions in many ways. I will be interested to see that when it comes out. I've also found it frustrating that Campbell does not seem interested in engaging in debate or discussion about the problems pointed out with the study. In that he makes some huge claims, I think he should.

    Here's a good analysis of a bunch of different diets: http://www.annualreviews.org/doi/full/10.1146/annurev-publhealth-032013-182351#abstractSection

    They basically conclude that whatever specific pattern a diet that is largely based on whole plant foods is good, but do not conclude that you get a particular benefit from excluding meat or dairy.

    You might want to take a look at the limitations of most of those studies. More often, they are small sample and do things based on recall or observation. And only when consuming large amounts 2-3x does it increase the risk a few percentage points for males (since it's prostate cancer).

    Conversely, there is additional evidence that it can prevent other cancers and osteoperosis, and with have no impact with other cancers. Essentially, you can't just say dairy causes cancer or linked to higher rates of cancer, but rather that if you drink in excess as a male, you increase the chances of prostate cancer. Which BTW, the OP is female, so kind of a non issue.

    I read a good book debunking food scares a few years ago. I'd look it up but my kindle is charging. That's the kind of food book I enjoy. And cookbooks. I love cookbooks.

    Is your Kindle charged yet? I'm curious on the name of the book (and how I can "accidentally" drop it in my wife's Kindle list).

    CONCLUSION:

    The totality of available scientific evidence supports that intake of milk and dairy products contribute to meet nutrient recommendations, and may protect against the most prevalent chronic diseases, whereas very few adverse effects have been reported.

    It could be "The Gluten Lie" by Alan Levinovitz -- it has a similar premise. It covers all sorts of food scares, not just gluten. I haven't read it yet, but it's been on my wish list for a while.

    I for one don't LIKE milk or yogurt.
    My dairy comes in the form of cheese (in moderation-- maybe 2 to 3 28g servings per week, and lowfat kefir poured into my oatmeal (for the protein and probiotics.

    "Such studies provide convincing evidence that increased consumption of milk can lead to reductions in the risk of vascular disease and possibly some cancers and of an overall survival advantage from the consumption of milk, although the relative effect of milk products is unclear."

    Never made cheese, but I am making my own yogurts! Tasty little buggers, especially with a spoonful of homemade jam mixed in (image... dairy with added sugar!)

    Personally for me dairy is out! It is pretty bad for you. I enjoy almond or coconut milk. Do the 7 day challenge give it up for 7 days then eat it again and tell me how you feel.

    How, pray tell, is dairy "bad for you"? Do you have any legitimate sources to back this up?
