Best info I've seen. A lot of BS flying around out there about this. I figure the WHO knows what they're talking about.

Someone on another thread suggested milk might be infected as well, so I had to find out because my son (15 months old) drinks a ton of milk. But milk is okay. (whew!)

1. The Lancet

A britsh Medical Journal did find a cirucmstancial link

My sister, a health care provider, and I talked about it... because my nephew is about as old as your kid

To be safe, get ORGANIC Milk...

Oh and the Lancet has also been cited by the WHO.

By the way... Health Experts in the UK did destroy milk from infected cows to be on the safe side back in '98

2. good idea

we always buy the non-hormone milk anyway, but going organic for the next little while is probably peace of mind.

thanks for the response.

3. Just make sure it is still pasteurized
