Is It Better to Avoid Milk?

Gary Null, Herbalist Wendy Wilson, and Dr. Stephen Bittiker, on their shows, all seem to agree that it is better to avoid milk. Not only is it a mucous forming food, but it's calcium is not absorbed well. A chart in the International Journal of Cardiology, in 1991, shows people ages 55-64 per 100,000 people who consume the highest amount of milk had a higher death rate. A chart by the World Health Organization, in 1996, shows the shortest life expectancy and highest incidences of breast, ovarian, prostate, and colon cancers were in the countries with the most dairy consumption. You can see these charts in the interesting article at the link below. Charlie Skeen recommends rice milk or almond milk as a substitute, but not soy milk.
