Ice cream is NOT good for your heart

Someone wrote to me yesterday saying she heard ice
cream is good for the heart and wanted to know if that was
true.

I guarantee that someone on the board of the Dairy Council
dreamed that one up.

Ice cream is about as good for your heart as arsenic.

The same can be said for all dairy products, including all
forms of milk (whole, skim, 1%, 2%, low-fat), cream (heavy
and light), half and half, cheese, yogurt, ice cream,
frozen yogurt, frozen custard and sour cream.

Dairy products are acid-producing to the body. There are
mountains of studies linking the consumption of dairy
products to heart disease, cancer, arthritis, migraines,
allergies, asthma and other respiratory conditions--all
classic examples of illnesses caused or worsened by acid.

Dairy products also coat your mucus membranes and result
in thick, slow-moving mucus build-up. This is one of the
main reasons why so many children walk around with almost
constant stuffy noses and ear infections--their little
bodies can't deal with all the mucus and end up within
flammations and infections.

And what do doctors do for these kids? Prescribe drugs
(antibiotics) or put little tubes in their ears to drain
the pus and mucus. Another perfect example of ignoring the
cause and masking the symptoms.

If your kids have frequent colds, stuffy noses, sinus
infections and ear infections, do something that will
actually help them--take them off of dairy and you'll see a
huge difference.

Now, the Diary Council wants to make sure profits are
made, so dairy it touted as a health food. Celebrities are
paid bundles to paint fake milk moustaches on their upper
lips and pose above the caption, "Milk. It does a body
good."

The ads should read: "Milk. It does a baby cow's body
good." That's what it's designed for--baby cows--not humans.

Cow's milk is designed to take an animal that weighs
between 80-100 pounds at birth to about a 550-pound weaned
calf within 6-10 months. I don't think Brooke Shields had
that in mind when she posed for her milk ad recently.

Cow's milk also has 300 times more casein than human milk.
Casein is a thick, gooey substance that helps form huge cow
bones. But inside a human, it's nearly impossible to
digest and creates a tremendous amount of acid in the
stomach.

One of the scare tactics used by the dairy industry is
that dairy products are essential to make sure you have
enough calcium.

That's a joke.

I say that because the calcium in dairy products is
basically useless to a body with acid. You see, when your
body is overrun with acid (from acid-forming foods like
dairy products and bad food combinations), it leeches
minerals, including calcium, from your bones and organs to
neutralize the acid.

And you don't get the benefit of the calcium from dairy or
any supplements either, because it's used up in the fight
against acid too.

The bottom line is this: Dairy products are NOT good for
you. They are NOT a health food. And they're NOT
essential to get calcium.

Now you may be saying, "What do I do? I've eaten dairy
all my life?"

Great Taste No Pain is here to help.

The Great Taste No Pain manuals explain the dangers of
dairy, show you how to eat them to minimize their harmful
effects, and present delicious alternatives to dairy and
other animal products. The recipe book contains recipes
featuring alkaline, calcium-rich foods, with no moustaches
necessary.
