"Brainstorming one night with her fellow scientist husband about
why, in the West, one in 10 women get breast cancer (one in 14
in Ireland), while in China it's only one woman in 10,000,
the pair came up with the simple answer: Chinese people don't eat
dairy products."

I don't know this author or this book, but that statistic sounds
extraordinary to me...not saying it's not right, just extraordianary!

Is it true? And if it is, or even if there is a big differential not
quite as HUGE as this one, could it not be to do with more and longer
bf?
