I am sorry I did not answer you.
Here is a start?
Take milk.
Follow a family in the morning, shopping whatever, foucs on their consumption of milk, their perception of it as being healthy and good.
Talk to some experts about the use of posilac. I know this would be the hardest part. You might have to contact several agricultural colleges etc.
Talk about what posilac does, how it is injected below the cows tail, how this increases blood flow to that area and raises the milk output.
Then talk about what it does to the cow. How it causes the (whatever the utter sac is) to swell and drag on the ground. How the cow has trouble walking. How the cow becomes weaker and sicker and how the utters become sore and covered with puss.
You could talk about the elivated levels of horomone in the milk and what this might do to the drinker. You could have the fda swear that its safe. If you want to go a little Geraldo have a glass of posilc diary milk standing by and ask him to drink it in front of you. I fhe does fine, if he refuses you have a great moment.
Talk about how bills drafted that would require milk containers to be labeled as to where the milk came from have been voted down, how former Clinton staffer now have board jobs on the monsanto board.
I relaize that some of this might be to grand in scale or budget. If you like you can focus on how monsanto has been clashing with school boards that are trying to ban milk from cows treated with posilac. This fight was fought and lost in NYC public schools, the biggest school group in the country.
You make people aware you show them the sides and the stakes. Why have allegies gone up 300 percent in 10 years?
If we do our jobs people get up and make change. |

For your absurd misstatement about allergies? Asthma is up, but some of that is due to elevated ozone levels in congested areas during summer months.
So much of what you say is baseless it's hard to know where to begin, so I won't. Somehow, I don't see any biology, chemistry, statistics, or nutrition in your background. Or spelling, for that matter.
Low fat milk IS, for the overwhelming percentage of the population healthy and good.
I've got the National Academy of Sciences Committees on Food Safety and Nutrition, the UN World Health Organization and Agricultural Organization, every land grant College of Agriculture, and virtually every nutrition dept and university school of public health (like those of Harvard, Yale, and Michigan) on my side. The scientific literature simply does not support what you say. The epidemiological data on cancer and endocrine-related pathology simply does not support what you say.
It's a non-story, but feel free to take a shot at it.
