Why You Don't Need Dairy

Break with refreshments followed by:

So What is a Healthy Diet?

By Juliet Gellatley, Founder and Director, Viva! and Vegetarian & Vegan Foundation and Nutritional Therapist, BSc DIP CNM, FNTP, NTCC

Juliet's compelling talks ask:

...is it natural to consume milk after weaning? Indeed, is it safe to consume cow's milk at all? She looks at many health issues and new research showing why dairy is linked to cancers; how natural growth hormones in milk affect us and what are the dangers of milk protein and saturated fats? She exposes the way that major studies have revealed that dairy causes heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

Importantly, she also examines the calcium myth. Do we - and especially our children - need milk for calcium? If not, where should we obtain it and how do we ensure our kids have strong bones?

The we have a fun quiz on eating healthily and Juliet covers:

What is the perfect diet for a human? Are we designed to eat meat? Plants? Both? Raw food? Cooked? Is sugar all bad? The myths and realities!
