Baby Quote by Alison Stewart
“One reason milk consumption may lead to cancer risk is insulin-like growth factor, IGF-1 (not to be confused with bovine growth hormone, rBGH). Milk contains IGF-1 for good reason: milk is designed for babies, and IGF-1 helps us grow. IGF-1 affects growth, as well as other functions, and is normally found in our blood. Higher levels of IGF-1, however, appear to stimulate cancer cells.”
![“Results from a prospective study of 25,892 Norwegian women clearly showed that consumption in excess of 750 ml of whole milk a day leads to a relative risk of breast cancer of 2.91 compared with consumption of less than 150 ml with a relative risk of 1.0 [104].” quote by Bodo Melnik](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/3bc/bodo-melnik-56778_breast-cancer_results-from-a-prospective-study-of-25-8_3079802.jpg)
![“In contrast to the positive associations for total and dietary calcium, there was no association with intake of nondairy calcium. This result might have suggested that other components of dairy products than calcium contribute to [prostrate cancer] risk.” quote by Dagfinn Aune](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/744/dagfinn-aune-108790_calcium_in-contrast-to-the-positive-associations_1309064.jpg)
