Milk for prehistoric man?

February 27, 2007, 01:17 AM

I have known a long time that Orientals do not eat dairy products not only because they do not like them, but because they cannot digest them.

Here is an article explaining the genetics and the history of lactose tolerance in ethnic Europeans:

Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
he said, 'Don't count calories.'
