BTW, Dr. Roger Williams (a world-famous scientist and biochemist...he's the one who actually discovered pantothenic acid, gave folic acid its name, and did original work with numerous other vitamins and dietary factors) felt that milk helps protect against heart disease. He recommended that whole milk be consumed, as an excellent part of any diet.

Read the chapter on heart disease in his popular book Nutrition Against Disease. It has a lot of material on the effect of milk and butterfat, including the results of scientific studies. Highly recommended reading.

Interesting bit about their use of mint or spearmint. I'm drinking spearmint tea as an experiment, started last week. Could the mint be something that helped them keep their hair? All these civilizations with great hair all ate good fats. So good fats seem to be a key component. I'm vegan so I'm going to just up my in take of omegas like flaxseed and stuff.

I've just started reading this book and one quote about milk sticks out.
Any extreme position with respect to milk -- either that it should be used universally or that its use should be restricted to small children -- is a faddist notion which cannot be defended scientifically.
That may have been true when this book was written in 1971 but we now have scientific evidence to back up why milk is bad for everyone. And T. Colin Campbell spells it all out in The China Study. This book is a blast from the past to say the least. Back to reading...

How do you know that? There have been a lot of other changes as well.
Decrease in physical activity. More people working inside rather then outdoors. Increase in electromagnetic fields. Increased pollution. Increased use of chemicals. Increased hygiene. Might as well blame baldness on all of that...
How do I know? The China Study, a study conducted in the early 1970s proves it. Read The China Study book, better, go to amazon.com and read about this book. This book is what gave me the idea that male pattern baldness was not genetic at all but diet related. Just like cancer and heart disease. This guy studied different countries within China, those countries in China that consumed the most animal protein had the most heart disease and cancer, those that didn't had the least. So it's a snapshot inside China, studying diet and cancer and the connection. If it were genetics why then were cancer rates so different within China. He discovered a direct correlation between the percentage of animal proteins consumption and higher cancer rates. Proving that it's not genetics but diet. And NO I'm not trying to sell this book, I know I'm talking a lot about it, that's because it's important to my argument. It's hard to get into a debate when so few of you are even familiar with The China Study.
You are aware that both of the authors of the book you're referring to have male pattern baldness, I hope?
In fact, if you look hard enough, pretty much every physician that thinks they have something important to say about the human diet has some form of baldness.
Your genetics determine your body's response to your diet. Genetics are more important.
