In response to Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine’s claims that milk consumption doesn’t help prevent osteoporosis, the National Dairy Council issued a press release pointing out PCRM’s long running difficulties in giving accurate information.
As the NDC points out, "the claim the group is making does not represent the total body of available science. It is an erroneous conclusion based on a single study limited to a narrowly defined population. The study, by its authors’ design, was not constructed to show cause and effect as this group would want you to believe. Rather, it was constructed as an epidemiological study intended to generate observations and hypotheses that may lead to further study."
PCRM misrepresented a study? No, you don’t say.
