Bob, I like butter, eat it daily(bought from a health food store). I like meat also, but am allergic to beef but have it on occasion. I say to you "enjoy". :) <<> Hi Ole Bob, > Based on recommendations re: my wife's diabetes, we stopped all dairy > products and she has been improving ever since.

The cumulative > effects may be slow ... may be insidious - long term!>> Robert, I agree... beef and dairy are not what they were 40 yrs ago and its a shame. You read so much negative information about our food today, antibiotics, hormones, food chain farm animals being fed meat byproducts, genetically engineered seeds...TILT! ...it gets to be "too much information". I think people just tend to ignore as we are creatures of habit/comfort. I am thankful for my illness in some regards, it has forced me to research all of this to regain health and prevent future problems. Its the reason I found this list. I eat meat and butter, don't plan on giving them up. But milk... no thank you. Not just because I was weaned along time ago and milk has no nutritional benefits for humans, causes mucous to form in nasal and throat areas, milk allergies, etc., but after watching 20/20 or 60 min. and saw a special on dairy farms and what they strained out of the milk... no way! Not to mention what they give the cow(hormones/antibiotics) before they milk it and what the results of that are afterwards due to antibiotic resistant bacteria. Fast food burgers. Yes, I do have them on a rare occasions but usually get the chicken(questionable also) After reading somewhere, maybe this list, you shouldn't eat fried chicken anywhere as its not in the hot oil long enough to kill whatevers lurking on that chicken. Sorta takes the fun out of "lets get a quick lunch". Fast food beef has to be on the bottom of the barrel as far as I'm concerned and I'm sure in the future we are going to start seeing some health issues surrounding these places. I personally know of a case in the N.E. states of a man who died from "mad cow" disease. A long, lingering disease process which made it hard to diagnose until the end(8 yrs I think). That info was kept in the family. A fellow from the funeral home told these people that this was the third case he'd seen, that was a few years ago. Tip of the iceburg? The upside of all this is, I always have my bottle of CS handy incase any bugs from this stuff decide to play havic with my system. :) Terri L.
