  1. Milk? Or poison!

  2. Attention Getter • According to Robert Cohen, Executive Director of the Dairy Education Board and NOTMILK.com, milk consumption is to blame for a variety of health woes, including the following:breast cancer • diabetes (both diabetes mellitus and juvenile diabetes) • kidney stones • acne • heart disease • osteoporosis • multiple sclerosis • stroke • rheumatoid arthritis

  3. Audience Connection • Americans drink more than six billion gallons of milk per year. Even more Americans eat dairy products of some kind. • Americans need to eliminate or limit their use of dairy to avoid it’s negative side effects.

  4. Credibility • This information is from the EPCC online databases and from The El Paso Times website.

  5. Summary • Milk is widely marketed in our society, but is detrimental to your health. • People should avoid using dairy products because milk causes weight gain and can lead to obesity. • There are many hormones in milk that can lead to several health problems.

  6. Got Milk? Milk Marketing • Milk is promoted as a weight loss solution • Milk is recommended for calcium and Vitamin D. • There are sources of calcium that are actually much healthier for you: • Broccoli • Chickpeas • Soy Milk

  7. Milk is High in Calories • Dairy products contain lactose, a type of milk-sugar that many people have difficulty digesting • In higher fat dairy products, most of the fat is saturated fat. • Dairy foods can be high in fat and, therefore, calories.

  8. What’s in there?! • Antibiotics in milk • Hormones in milk • Possible unexpected ingredients: blood, puss, bacteria.

  9. Counter Argument • There have been some studies, many of them funded by the dairy industry, suggesting that Americans who eat more dairy products tend to be thinner than those who eat less • Rebuttal • On the other hand, there are cultures where people eat little or no dairy and are lots thinner and healthier than us, so I tend not to think that dairy products are some sort of magic bullet for weight loss.
