> Keep in mind that there is a mechanism of action that explains why the consumption of mammalian food products (including dairy) significantly increases risk of chronic inflammation, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer in humans: the autoimmune response of dietary N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) uptake in human cells.
That's interesting but wouldn't the consumption of dairy fat be very strongly correlated with the consumption of dairy? And these folks had lower bouts of heart disease, not higher. Do you know how much this autoimmune response is associated with red meat as opposed to dairy?
