Do you have a cite for that number? TIA. Milk is a significant source of protein and calcium in my diet. And even if I switched to so-called 'soymilk,' the jury is still out on the hormonal effects (beneficial or not) from soy consumption. Truth is that I don't like the taste of soymilk (even the vanilla sweetened kind), and I love milk. So I'll just take my chances for now (and hope that no studies definitively link milk consumption with significantly increased risk of breast cancer!).
