That old slogan looks like it was true after all. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6898103.stmSomehow "drinka thirdofa pinta milka day plus no more than one or two other portions of dairy products in the same diurnal period" doesn't have quite the same ring to it, though ..... I love milk and butter and so on, but it was never meant for human consumption even though they always seem inclined to see it as 'natural'
The more dairy produce the men consumed, the less likely were they to have the syndrome
Presumably at some point they would have Negative Diabetes?
I miss real science where they worked out the mechanism by which a certain food (or action) would have a certain effect.
Now it's all like this:
"stand up if you have diabetes, but sit down if you have a mobile phone"
"now sit down if you ever watched the omnibus edition of Coronation Street"
"Eureka! we've proved that Corrie causes mobiles phones!"Yes but have you ever met anyone who watches Corrie who doesn't have a mobile phone?. Even I do, (I figured out how to top it up).
I don't drink a pint of milk a day so I suppose I will just have to get diabetes , I would drink more but am limited by how much milk I have left from my 2 litre weekly carton and if I buy extra it just goes off before I can drink it.
Milkmen leave milk on the step at 11am so are useless for workers as it has been robbed or gone sour by 6pm.*it was never meant for human consumption*
Aha -- meant by whom? (Terribly difficult not to think in "design" terminology, I find.)
And by the same token, was it in fact meant for people genetically lactose tolerant?I don't lactose. I have ten. Eccles nice one eccles
