Good article, but inconclusive, as you mention. Odd that no mention of pesticide use - either on the cows for insect induced illness or in the grass/feed was mentioned.
They did say that it was not the fat, nor the estrogen - but ‘something else’ in the milk that might be the culprit. I don’t think it’s the calcium…

Agree, with most of the diet based research on prostate cancer, many of the conclusions are directional. In the end each of us makes our own choices on how to live our lives. Each journey is different.

Phil, I’m leery of those studies. Most of us are old enough to remember the whipsaw about real butter, real milk, real sugar, etc. The alternatives turned out to be worse or no better, margarine, oat milk, splendida, etc. Studies sometimes supported by chemical, food industry, and post-docs trying to get jobs. I’ll stick with real things. But, of course, I’m not a moderate person.
