Cancer and animal protein

Rats usually live about two years.

Rats fed with 20%* milk protein (Casein): 100% of them were dead or almost dead suffering from liver tumor at two years.(Pg. 61 of the book below).

Rats fed with 5%* milk protein (Casein): 100% of them were still lively after two years.(Pg. 61 of the book below).

Rats fed with 20% casein with tumor growing (foci, pg. 54 of the book) showed huge decrease of tumor when protein intake is dropped drastically.(pg. 56 of the book)

Protein from soy or wheat did not cause tumor at 20%.

* RDA of protein is 12% by US government.
