The Effects of Hormones in Dairy Milk on Cancer

What are the effects of the female sex hormones in milk on men, women, and children?

Correction:
3:09 On the graph, the left column should be labeled "Estrone" instead of "Urine." 

For more on the relationship between cancer and dairy, see:

And I talk about the effect of dairy estrogen on men in Dairy Estrogen and Male Fertility.

What about the phytoestrogens in soy? See:

Thanks for watching. I hope you’ll join in the evidence-based nutrition revolution!

RIP to all the babies that were slaughtered in the veal industry and the mothers that repeatedly lost their babies. The real victims of the dairy industry.

I love how dr greger always make it a comedy show out of these upsetting revelations. Makes it worthwhile

[eelkeaptroot]

But let's put pink ribbons on milk cartons just in case....

Spare a thought for the poor calves, who are taken away from their mothers when they are a few days old and who live lives of total despair in tiny cages before being eaten. And for the mothers, who bellow in despair for their lost children.

I loved Jack LaLanne's reply when someone asked him why he didn't drink cow's milk; he said, ..."because I'm not a suckling calf!" 😂👏💪

Milk is a great source of dietary pus.

Dairy is for COWS ONLY please...so if you wake up and look in the mirror and see a cow...go for dairy. Perhaps you call your mom and she answers the phone moo...go for dairy. Otherwise drink water!

The funny thing is that every experienced cat owner knows you can't give kittens cow milk and have to buy cat's milk replacement from the store. It has completely different nutritional and hormonal profile.
At the same time they drink cow's milk themselves... Jesus, people are dumb.

I try really hard to inform people about this. I really do, but I am so sick and tired of being ignored.

Why is research on the connection between dairy and breast milk not possible at this time according to that one study?

[chiyerano]

I cannot help but remain in utter disbelief at how some men insist on consuming dairy with all of its hormones but avoid soy because they are afraid of becoming 'feminized' by the supposed estrogens in soy, never mind the very real estrogenic hormones in dairy that often help to give them man boobs and love handles if they eat enough of it. '..understanding the role of dietary hormone exposure in the population burden of breast cancer is not possible at this time.'? Hopefully this will change in the near future as at the very least inquiring minds want to know.

Like Joey says, "ya not a baby cow bro" ✌🏻️

[deepakhiranandani]

Thank you. Well illustrates what many vegans know in a general sense but are scoffed or worse for pointing out. I shall share this video at once. My regards and best wishes, as always.

[sharit]

Thanks for doing the research and posting! It's this estrogen connection that got me to finally 'quit' dairy 1 1/2 years ago. So glad I did!

[LevelUpWellness]

People are so afraid of soy but yet drink dairy like it’s nothing. The world is so backwards

[espaugh]

Great video! My daughter and I cannot have dairy neither meat, because of hormones. My child was in risk of premature puberty, because of dairy and meat, and as soon as I changed the diet things got back to normal. But many don't believe you and look at you weird when you tell the truth!

[melissameyer]

I wonder what affect the hormones have on the fetus and their future sexual preference if the mother is consuming cows milk. There's a lot to learn here...

[sarahharlow]

It still makes my skin crawl when I see people giving their kids ice cream cones, putting cream over fruit and so on. Dairy is scary but no matter what facts I tell friends and relatives they still suckle like calves in one way or another denying my information.
