Critics Review
I believe this is an important book. Critics should think carefully and avoid knee-jerk reactions.
”[A] shattering expose of the health problems caused by milk and the efforts of elements in the dairy industry and Government to cover them up.”–Jacqueline Steincamp, Healthy Options
“Devil in the Milk is a monumental study, convincingly laid out, and one that demands our immediate attention… . If we can use this book to convert our cows to A2 cows, then use the principles of properly fed, properly prepared dairy, we will do much to reduce the disease burden in our country and find our way to the robust health that is our birthright. I encourage everyone to read this book and see for themselves.”–Thomas Cowan, MD, from the Foreword
“I believe this is an important book. Critics should think carefully and avoid knee-jerk reactions.”–Sir John Scott, Professor Emeritus of Medicine, University of Auckland
“Devil in the Milk is potentially as significant as Carson’s Silent Spring or Nader’s Unsafe at Any Speed.”–Alan Robb, The New Zealand Farmers Weekly
