A study published in the U.S. ‘Journal of Reproductive Medicine’ shows that drinking milk dramatically increases the chances for women to have twin babies or even triplets. The study shows that compared to mothers who avoid dairy milk, the milk-consuming mothers have a 13% greater chance of having a multiple birth! Vegan women were found to have a 20% less chance of having twins compared to women who consume dairy products. (Mechanisms of Twinning: Effect of Diet and Heredity on the Human Twinning Rate, May 2006).

The study shows that this is due to cow hormones known as ‘IGF-1′. These hormones are present is all types of dairy milk. All recent studies show that IGF-1 is responsible for several types of cancer and other diseases in humans who consume milk.

Dr. Gary Steinman of the ‘Long Island Jewish Medical Center’ in New Hyde Park, USA, conducted the study. He took samples from more than a thousand women who were avoiding meat and dairy products and observed that they had five times less chances of bearing twins compared to female milk consumers. Dr. Steinman thinks that animal-product foodstuffs, especially dairy foods, can increase the chance of releasing more than one egg during ovulation, leading to the fertilization of twin eggs.

This theory is also supported by the finding that in some traditional dairy consuming populations, the rate of twin birth is high. If it is true that consuming milk increases the chances of a multiple birth, this adds further support to the horror story of IGF-1.

Anyone who consumes dairy milk will absorb the harmful IGF-1 bovine growth hormones, and this plays havoc with the natural hormonal balance of the human body. Giving birth to twins or triplets is an aberration in the human species, and is not a sign of good health for mother or babies.

Worse still, the combination of IGF-1 and estrogen in dairy milk is known to greatly accelerate early puberty in young girls and boys. This in turn can make people more prone to getting a variety of cancers in adult life.

The onset of early puberty in girls causes moodiness, depression, aggressiveness, social withdrawal, behavioural problems, and a greater tendency to become addicted to drugs, smoking and alcohol. Worse still, it is known that early puberty in a girl can greatly increase the risk of osteoporosis after the menopause.

‘There are several reasons why dairy products raise a woman’s hormone levels causing a variety of hormone-dependent problems from early onset of menstruation (menarche) to PMS and uterine fibroids - but one is unique to cow’s milk: cows are milked even while they are pregnant. As a result of the pregnancy, cows secrete high levels of estrogen into their milk.’ Janowski T., ‘Mammary Secretion Of Estrogens In The Cow’, Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 2002 Jul; 23(1-2): 125-37.

The simple solution is to avoid all kinds of dairy milk. Instead, use non-dairy milk which is widely available from supermarkets. Avoiding dairy milk has a dramatic and beneficial effect on your overall health. You can make your own delicious and super-nutritious non-dairy milk quickly and easily. This will save you money and be much better for health. See below for details of a free book showing how to make non-dairy milk.
