The April issue carried a thoughtful review of the possible untoward effects of milk drinking prepared by the Committee on Nutrition of the American Academy of pediatrics. It is regrettable, however, that the Committee chose to endorse the recommendations of the Protein Advisory Group of the United Nations. Alarmist statements in the lay press are unfortunate and, to a great extent, untrue. I refer to the subject of "lactose intolerance": at present it does not represent a nutrition problem in this country.
