Yet, this is FALSE, since “lactose intolerance” is quite common.
“. It is estimated that 75% of adults show some decrease in lactase
activity during adulthood worldwide. The frequency of decreased
lactase activity ranges from nearly 5% in northern Europe to more than
90% in some Asian and African countries ”

Bovine beverage contains IGF-1, the SAME growth hormone the cow has,
thus humans ingesting dairy get blasted with growth hormones, and thus
become overweight, as one result.

Refute ALL adverse effects assertions here; PLEASE!!

Yet, there is NO KNOWN mechanism of “adaptation” whereby ANY SPECIES
could “adapt” to any diet different from the one with which it
co-evolved. You, and your dishonest ilk, always claim that adaptation
to CULTURAL diet occurs, BUT you can NOT provide ONE hypothetical
mechanism whereby any such “adaptation” has occurred. Thus, YOU ARE A
LIAR!!
Present a credible hypothetical mechanism, consistent with
contem****ary evolution theory that shows ADAPTATION has occurred, OR
politely withdraw the claim and never mention it again.
This relates to intellectual honesty, and you WILL raise your
standards to MY enforced LEVEL, or you will be dismissed.

What is their sugar use?
What is the global distribution of diabetes?
YOU certainly are NOT to be TRUSTED to provide accurate or meaningful
data.
Substantiate EACH claim with credible data, or go away!

What % of the human society have “adverse reactions” to fruits and
berries?
We are frugivorous apes, or are you denying THAT too??

The DATA, however, say differently. Lactose intolerance is a global
problem because humans are NOT designed to digest any milk after
weaning; is not this obvious??

DO NOT LIE about statistics, or misuse terminology in a pathetic

This is meaningless gibberish. Present credible citations to sup****t
this. OR WITHDRAW it.
RAISE YOUR STANDARDS OR LEAVE.
