The Paleo Answer

Dr. Cordain just put out a new book called The Paleo Answer. So far I have made it to chapter 6...I stayed up until 2am last night reading the "Just say no to the milk mustache" chapter! I am so fired up about how the US government recommends cows milk as part of a "balanced diet" when it is so detrimental to everyone's health!

Cordain lays out the science of how dairy (cow's milk) causes heart disease, insulin resistance, acne, type 1 diabetes, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer, colic (in babies), asthma, excessive mucus production, Parkinson's disease, cataract formation, impaired iron and zinc absorption, and risk for hip fracture. I've definitely found this to be true in my experience!

Here's a link to the book on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Paleo-Answer-Weight-Great-Young/dp/1118016084/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328143452&sr=8-1
