Lose fat fast for free! Ninja Diet step 2.

2. Avoid Dairy products.

Most cheese is 70% fat.
In America many studies clearly show that milk does not build strong bones.
Nor does it cause weight loss, reduce PMS, or deliver the other supposed benefits claim by the dairy industry has used in media promotions. The science supporting milk for bone health was always shaky, and with a new Harvard study showing zero benefit for children’s bones. Similarly, the Harvard Nurses’ Health Study, which followed more than 72,000 women for 18 years, showed no protective effect of increased milk consumption on fracture risk.

 .

This matters because dairy products do a surprisingly amount of harm to your body.
First, they are the leading source of saturated (“bad”) fat in the western diet, and that causing obesity, heart disease, and diabetes.
Meanwhile, nonfat milk gets most of its calories from sugar—that is, lactose. Ounce for ounce, nonfat milk is about as fattening as a typical soda. Dairy products are under investigation for their roles in type 1 diabetes, prostate cancer, arthritis, digestive problems, and childhood anemia, among other conditions.


A study published in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, which followed adolescent girls’ diets, physical activity, and stress fractures for seven years, found that girls consuming the most dairy products and calcium had no added bone protection. In fact, among the most physically active girls, those who got the most calcium in their diets (mostly from dairy products) had more than double the risk of stress fractures.3 While calcium is important for bone health, studies show that increasing consumption beyond approximately 600 milligrams per day—amounts that are easily achieved without dairy products or calcium supplements—does not improve bone integrity.2
In studies of children and adults, exercise has been found to have a major effect on bone density.4-6
You can decrease your risk of osteoporosis by reducing sodium,7increasing intake of fruits and vegetables,7,8 exercising,5,9 and ensuring adequate calcium intake from plant foods such as kale, broccoli, and other leafy green vegetables and beans. You can also use calcium-fortified products such as breakfast cereals and beverages.

Fat Content and Cardiovascular Disease

Dairy products—including cheese, ice cream, milk, butter, and yogurt—contribute significant amounts of cholesterol and are the number one source of saturated fat in the diet.10 Diets high in fat and saturated fat can increase the risk of heart disease, among other serious health problems. In two studies, hypertension—a known risk factor for heart disease—was significantly decreased among patients who practiced strict avoidance of animal products.11,12

Cancer

Prostate and breast cancers have been linked to consumption of dairy products, presumably related to increases in a compound called insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I).15 IGF-I is found in cow’s milk and has been shown to occur in increased levels in the blood of individuals consuming dairy products on a regular basis.16,17 Other nutrients that increase IGF-I are also found in cow’s milk.
Case-control studies in diverse populations have shown a strong and consistent association between serum IGF-I concentrations and prostate cancer risk.18 One study showed that men who had the highest levels of IGF-I had an almost two-fold increased risk of prostate cancer, compared with those who had the lowest levels.19 Other findings show that prostate cancer risk was elevated with increased consumption of low-fat milk, suggesting that too much dairy calcium could be a potential threat to prostate health.18
Dairy products account for approximately 65 percent of estrogens consumed. Estrogens (and their metabolites) are a risk factor for breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers due, in part, to their ability to influence cell proliferation.20 A study suggesting that milk consumption may contribute to breast cancer risk reported that 15 different estrogen metabolites were found in various milk products. (There were no appreciable amounts of estrogen metabolites found in soymilk.)20 Cutting fatty foods is priority No. 1 when you endeavor to lower your risk for breast cancer, and, as noted above, dairy products are the No. 1 source of saturated fat in the diet.

Enough already.

Ninja diet a no oil plant-based food that eliminates dairy products, in combination with exercise, and stress management, can not only prevent heart disease, but may also reverse it.13,14 It is time to bring humanity back into health and.
 The Diabetes Prevention Program proved that lifestyle changes are more powerful than drugs for preventing diabetes.And in 2006, PCRM’s research team showed that a plant-based diet was a powerful treatment for people with diabetes. Avoiding dairy products helped participants slim down, cut their blood sugars, and
reduce their need for medicines.
