Free public talk: Why You Don't Need Dairy by Juliet Gellatley, Viva! founder & director and Nutritional Therapist, BSc DIP CNM, FNTP, NTCC

Millman Street Community Rooms, 38a Millman St, Holborn, London WC1N 3EW

Talks lasts 45 minutes with 30 mins questions. If you're feeling social, there are drinks afterwards! Juliet's compelling talks ask:
...is it natural to consume milk after weaning? Indeed, is it safe to consume cow's milk at all? She looks at many health issues and new research showing why dairy is linked to cancers; how natural growth hormones in milk affect us and what are the dangers of milk protein and saturated fats? She exposes the way that major studies have revealed that dairy causes heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Importantly, she also examines the calcium myth. Do we - and especially our children - need milk for calcium? If not, where should we obtain it and how do we ensure our kids have strong bones? Finally, is Britain going to factory farm dairy cows?
