A myth around milk and cancer

Professor Gregor Majcid, of the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, says the idea that drinking milk can give you cancer is just a myth.  It has been linked to forms of the disease as it contains oestrogen.

This hormone can fuel tumours in breasts and ovaries in women and the prostrate gland in men.

However, the University claim, following analysis of over a dozen studies, is that there is no need to be concerned. The evidence suggests that the levels in milk are too low to cause any problems.

Cow's milk is packed with protein, calcium, zinc, iodine and Vitamins A and B.
