Typical dairy products (milk, cheese, yogurt, and so forth) are loaded with
fat and cholesterol, and researchers are discovering that dairy products
appear to play an important role in cancer risk.
Harvard researchers in the Physicians’ Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study
found that men who frequently consume dairy products had a higher
prostate cancer risk. Possible reasons for this connection include dairy
products’ tendency to boost insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) production
in the body and the high calcium content of dairy products, which
decreases vitamin D activation. Breast cancer and ovarian cancer risk have
also been examined for their links to dairy consumption. Happily, soymilk,
rice milk, nondairy yogurt, and other dairy alternatives make the switch
easy.
