SOY versus COW'S MILK

Let's compare 100-gram portions (3.5 ounces) of soymilk vs.
cow's milk:

Cow's milk has 61 calories. Soymilk has 33 calories. Cow's
milk contains 3.34 grams of fat. Soymilk contains 1.91 grams
of fat.

Cow's milk has 14 milligrams of cholesterol and no dietary
fiber. Soymilk contains 1.3 grams of fiber and has zero
cholesterol.

Cow's milk contains a full range of amino acids. Soymilk
also contains a full range of amino acids.

Both contain plenty of protein. Cow's milk actually has one-
half gram more protein than the 100-gram portion of soymilk.

Soymilk contains greater amounts of certain amino acids
including arginine, alanine, aspartic acid, and glycine.

Arginine slows the growth of cancers by strengthening the
immune system. Alanine aids in the metabolism of sugars.
Aspartic acid increases stamina and plays a vital role in
metabolism, acting as an anti-oxidant. Glycine is necessary
for brain and nervous system functioning and muscle/energy
metabolism.

When milk is pasteurized, Vitamins A, C, and D are
destroyed. The same can be said for those vitamins when
soymilk is manufactured. Soymilk does contain more than four
times the amount of thiamin (Vitamin B-1) and nearly twice
the amount of  niacin (Vitamin B-3) as does cow's milk.

Soymilk also contains more magnesium, copper, and manganese
than does cow's milk. In order to absorb calcium, one needs
magnesium. Copper also aids in bone formation. One early
sign of osteoporosis is a deficiency in copper. Soymilk
contains twelve times the amount of copper as does cow's
milk. Soymilk also contains 42 times the amount of manganese
as does cow's milk. Manganese is also needed for bone
formation. People with anemia rely upon manganese for iron
storage. Trace amounts of manganese are essential for neural
transmissions, protein metabolism, and many other body
functions.

· From the life and death of a thousand pound grass raised
steer and whatever he happens to kill during his life, people
get over 500 pounds of human consumable meat...that's well
over 500 servings of meat. From a grass raised dairy cow people
get thousands of dairy servings. Due to the influence of farm
machinery, and *icides, and in the case of rice the flooding and
draining of fields, one serving of soy or rice based product is
likely to involve more animal deaths than hundreds of servings
derived from grass raised animals. Grass raised animal products
contribute to fewer wildlife deaths, better wildlife habitat, and
better lives for livestock than soy or rice products. ·

Here we see plowing:
http://tinyurl.com/8fmxe

and here harrowing:
http://tinyurl.com/zqr2v

both of which kill animals by crushing, mutilation, suffocation,
and exposing them to predators. We can see that planting
kills in similar ways:
http://tinyurl.com/k6sku

and killing with insecticides should be apparent even to you:
http://tinyurl.com/ew2j5

Harvesting kills of course by crushing and mutilation, and
it also removes the surviving animals' food and exposes
them to predators:
http://tinyurl.com/otp5l

In the case of rice there's additional killing as well caused
by flooding:
http://tinyurl.com/qhqx3

and later by draining after a new environment is established,
then destroyed before harvest:
http://tinyurl.com/mte43

Please explain how you think cattle eating grass:
http://tinyurl.com/q7whm
could cause anywhere near as much suffering and death.

It's not "ice cream" -- it would require milk to be called that. It's
labelled here as a "non-dairy dessert." It's just starchy water and
sugar and flavorings.

Why "veg" chocolate syrup? What's wrong with the real stuff? And is

Perhaps you should take time to read the bibliography attached to the
articles Cohen writes.

There is plenty of science to refute the JUNK science churned out by
the dairy industry and their funded "neutral" 3rd party researchers.

Veracity isn't established by the number of one's footnotes, but rather
by the accuracy with which one portrays the information contained
therein. The tendency among "alternative healers" is to mislead via
the (mis)use of abstracts rather than full studies when making health
claims and drawing connections. Dr Steven Bratman has dealt with this
issue at length:

    In 1998, [Bratman] closed his medical practice to become the Medical
    Director at Prima Health, a division of Prima Publishing (now part of
    Random House). In that capacity, he reviewed existing literature on
    alternative medicine and discovered that it was based on abstracts and
    secondary citations rather than the original studies.  To bridge this
    gap, he directed a massive research program that ultimately obtained
    the full text version of 11,000 studies, and involved the translation
    of hundreds of non-English articles.  Analysis of these studies
    revealed a pervasive pattern of scientific errors in existing material.
    www.AltMedConsult.com

Cohen's misled others repeatedly about his bona fides -- claiming to
be engaged in scientific research. He's not a scientist, nor does he
work with "independent researchers." Like Lesley, he combs through
abstracts looking for his favored nit to pick and then makes connections
researchers reject (e.g., in Lesley's case, she insisted one particular
study found that fats were "addictive" and continued to promote her
ignorance even after the study's authors, alarmed by such claims in the
popular media, issued strong denials that their research had ever made
such a finding).

Seems you forgot to answer the questions below. Maybe because each of

nutrition is flat out silly if not imbecilic?  You hide behind a dentist

No.

Only about 75 to 80% of research in the US is paid for by industry.
That is not *all*, just *most* of all science. That also does not mean
that all scientists who work on papers funded by industry are, as you
put it, "on the take". But it certainly raises questions about the
reason why the research is undertaken in the first place, then it
raises questions regarding the collection and interpretation of the
data. Was all bias removed from the process? Or was the process biased
to get specific answers to the question posed by the researchers? And
of course, the funder gets to pick the question being asked in the
first place. Like "Is whole wheat better than refined white wheat?" as
opposed to the question "How does wheat compare to other real fresh
whole foods?".

No, *all* scientists, medical people and researchers are not "on the
take". But there are enough of them that are "on the take" doing all
that research and trumpeting the results by press conference as opposed
to quietly publishing the results like most real non-on-the-take
scientists tend to do.

When up 80% of researchers are funded by industry, and the requirements
to report these ties are lax, how do you determine what is real science
and what is marketting? Real scientists can't even tell the difference
without a great deal of applied cynicism and research on who's working
to whom.

When the Atkins diet was the rage a couple of years ago, the grain
industry funded dozens of "studies" that trumpetted how whole grains
were so much better than refined grains. They produced enough "studies"
and got enouh press and paid for enough advertizing thruout the media,
that it is now common "knowledge" amongst the masses that "whole grains
are good". That is how industry bias skews "science" and common
opinion.

Is this paranoia on my part? Nope, it is the reality of having a
massive research industry where 70 to 80% of the science being done is
paid for by the food and/or pharmaceutical industry.

Now here is my question:

Are all "scientific" researchers completely free of bias?
