JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - A local builder who swore at a council member at a planning meeting last week says he's sorry for what happened sort of. "I regret my outburst at (the June 11) meeting as inappropriate (but) I needed to stand up to the bully," Jim Waterhouse said in an email included in council's Monday night agenda. Waterhouse didn't mention the "bully" by name but it was Councillor John Martinello who was the target of his epithet which led to the businessperson being ordered to leave by Mayor Mark Walas (see page 7 for more on last week's meeting). Waterhouse also called Martinello a "disgrace" before leaving

Council criticized over treatment of municipal staff
l Continued from page 1
and the councillor responded in kind. Martinello said he had been the victim of an "assault." The outburst by Waterhouse, who was sitting in the gallery at the time, occurred while council was discussing a complaint by a resident about streets left dirty as a result of construction work being done by another developer, Stephen Tobey. Martinello had introduced a motion that staff investigate the allegation and recommend penalties if necessary to ensure compliance. Tobey reacted angrily to the charge and said complaints about messy streets
should be made to staff rather than directly to council members "to stir the pot." "But we don't have any staff," he added. They keep quitting "because they're harassed by members of council." Martinello held firm in his pursuing the matter, saying the complaints go back to April 2017, and he continued to ask questions, which caused Waterhouse to lash out. The builder in his email asked council when it was "going to stop this type of behaviour" because the bullying needs to end "and doing nothing makes you equally responsible." Council received the correspondence without comment at its June 18
meeting but one local resident, a frequent critic of elected officials, offered his view on the episode in the citizens comments segment earlier in the evening. David Green said he didn't condone the outburst but said it and other discussions that took place at the planning meeting "were expressions of sentiments ... that many of us are feeling." He pointed out that 15 staff members have left the employ of the municipality since the current term of council started and two others are on sick or medical leave. "That's what's frustrating us," Green said. "There's no one left to manage the jobs."
Dr. Suresh Appan & Associates
He also criticized unnamed council members who submit motions and then challenge staff when they say the handwritten motions are illegible. "That's a form of harassment," Green said. "Staff shouldn't have to defend themselves on a simple matter of being able to read what is presented to them. It's common decency and there's no procedural bylaw needed for common decency." Green closed by saying: "Ask yourself this question before you file papers to run for re-election in October: Am I part of the problem or can I be part of the solution? “And if you're not sure, ask me because I have an opinion."

ALICIA VANDINE The Brian Todd Memorial Community Fund (BTMCF) granted 12 community support organizations, five school groups and the Municipality of Brighton a total of $50,000 in support of their many worthy projects and initiatives at its annual general meeting held on June 14. With the sale of their building in 2017 to the municipality, the corporate name of the Brighton Health Services Centre was officially changed to the Brian Todd Memorial Community Fund in recognition of Brian's lifelong devotion to community service and his desire to improve the quality of life for all Brightonians. "We are no longer in primarily the landlord business," said Bruce Davies, treasurer, BTMCF. "We are in the giving away money to our community business." The following community support grants were

ward purchase of new CT scanner, the Friends of Presqu'ile children's summer program, Campbellford Memorial Hospital toward purchase of portable ventilator, Community Care Northumberland's Meals on Wheels program, Quinte SailAbility replacing life jackets and Codrington's Farmer's Market's Wellness Fair.
The Municipality of Brighton also received support for two of their projects, the building of multipurpose stage area to replace the old gazebo in Memorial Park and the design cost of an updated and expanded skateboard park. "In the past, our board has focused on organizations that support health promotion," said Judie
Mortlock, chair BTMCF. "With our expanded government-approved mandate, we can now take a holistic approach and support a broader range of community development initiatives. Being the first chair of the Brian Todd Memorial Community Fund is one of the most satisfying things I have ever done." In the School Grant cate-
gory, students identify projects that will help enhance the experience of students and leave a legacy for future students. Both Smithfield Public and Spring Valley Public schools received funding for the purchase of new portable sound systems. Brighton Public School received funding to create key chains that are used as volunteer thankyous using a 3D printer and ENSS commissioned new art created by artist AJ Van Drie to hang in their library. The ENSS Leos Club will use their funding to help spruce up their courtyard area to make it more usable for students. "I knew Brian for only a short time," added Mortlock. "I do think he would be so pleased that we are continuing the work he began granting community agencies and school projects." Donations from the community are gratefully accepted on the agency's website www.btmcf.net.

Brighton's 'super-girl' receives Ontario Junior Citizen certificate VICTOR SCHUKOV Brighton's Charlotte Gorrie has, in her mere 12 years, done so much humanitarian work, her deeds would require a newspaper to dedicate an entire edition to them alone. The super-girl was recently nominated for the 2017 Ontario Junior Citizen Awards for outstanding youth age six to 17 who perform worthwhile community service. Every nominee receives a Certificate of Recognition from his/her local community newspaper through the Ontario Community Newspapers Association. (Twelve outstanding future leaders were chosen this year from 2,664 entries.) A few years ago, Charlotte asked her grandmother about the war in Germany. Her Oma said that as the battle came closer to their home, her mother woke her to evacuate immediately, leaving behind her only doll. Charlotte remembered her Oma saying that she never got another doll. That Christmas, Charlotte bought a doll and gave it to her granny. In 2015, when her grandmother was in a nursing home, Charlotte visited her every day. After that, Charlotte started to routinely visit residents of local nursing homes. "I take along my puppy Lucky and go to Applefest Lodge and Maplewood," said Charlotte. Every Sunday, she walks Ena an 89year-old lady to church. At four years old, she started a craft sale at her church to raise funds for a new hall, and joined her parents for Relay for Life.

Charlotte Gorrie (centre) shown here with her award, her mother Bettina is on the left and Suzanne Bruyea, her nominator, on the right At six, Charlotte started having home birthday parties with a twist: "Instead of gifts I raise funds. My best friend is adopted from Haiti, so I did a fundraiser for her orphanage, God's Littlest Angels." Her mother Bettina added, "When Charlotte was in for enlarged heart surgery, she was always concerned about the other kids, so she did her second fundraiser for the Sick Kids hospital and raised $610. Her third was for the Brighton Library, raising $340." In 2011-2012, she participated in CanSkate Program Stage 2. She volunteers regularly at the Tuesday community breakfast welcoming seniors at the door. Charlotte does roadside
plant sales for the Lions foundation, and is into her fourth year in the guide dog walk charity. "I often go to the Humane Society to pet the animals and take the dogs for walks. They deserve love too." In 2017, she raised $1,100 door to door. While her surgery was a success, she still has an incredibly big heart, figuratively speaking. There is so much more. When she is not volunteering, she is teaching herself how to play piano, and inventing her own baking recipes. And she just wrote her first book, and is trying to get it published. The Gorries live on a hobby farm with horses. Charlotte has been riding since she was three, and

competes in barrel racing. What does she want to be when she grows up? Charlotte said, "Either a massage therapist or a veterinarian because my horses' chiropractor has been giving me tips on how to work with Misty (one of her dogs) who has a bad hip or Dancer who has a floater bone in his hock." (She sounds like a doctor already.) Charlotte said, "I like people to be happy. I enjoy making them smile." She made a big sign to put on the road. It reads "SMILE." Her mother said, "Charlotte is very observant and includes everyone. She never misses when someone is having a bad day and tries to make things better. At five, playing on the Brighton hockey team, she often helped a boy having a difficult time, teaching him how to get up from the ice.
When she started showing horses at seven, she won first place. A girl that she competed with was in tears because she placed second. Charlotte wanted to give the girl her ribbon. Last year, at track and field, Charlotte finished a 1500 meter run. Then she noticed her classmate struggling in the first 100 m of the second half. To encourage her, Charlotte ran with her, running a total of 2900 metres."
Charlotte said, "I plan on adopting children when I get older because there are so many kids around the world that need a loving home." Her mother added, "She gets upset if I donate her outgrown clothes, saying that she will use them for her child because she knows she will adopt a girl. People call Charlotte an old soul." How true. We can all learn from this young lady.

OPINION
• EDITORIAL •
Urging caution near work areas Construction season is upon us and with that comes an increased need for motorists to pay attention and adjust their driving accordingly. The price for not doing so can be devastating. Two years ago near the Town of Renfrew, a community in eastern Ontario, a 42-year-old was hit and killed by a vehicle while working at a highway construction project on Highway 17. Another worker was seriously injured and airlifted to hospital. In the fall of that year, a 70-year-old man was charged with careless driving. This fall, an inquest will be held to examine the events surrounding Milton's death. The jury may then make recommendations aimed at preventing similar deaths. It's only fair for those who work on our roads to have a safe and healthy workplace, too. And with the many road construction projects underway across the region, OPP are reminding motorists of the importance of construction zone safety and reducing speed when entering construction zones. OPP say drivers are advised to proceed with caution when approaching a construction zone and to obey all warning signs, people and/or devices that are directing traffic through the area. It is an offence under the Highway Traffic Act to disobey STOP or SLOW signs displayed by a traffic-control person. Lower speeds are often posted in construction zones to increase worker safety and to reflect increased road hazards such as construction vehicles, uneven or gravel surfaces and narrowed lanes, say OPP. Motorists are reminded that speeding fines are doubled in construction zones when workers are present. The advice is for drivers of all vehicles, large and small. The OPP announced last week it has embarked on a commercial motor vehicle campaign called 'Operation Corridor'. It targets all major truck routes in the province with an eye to reducing the number transport-related collisions. There have already been 25 fatal collisions involving large transports this year, a jump of 25 per cent over the same time a year ago, according to police. There are ways to be as prepared as possible for what you might encounter on the roads. Information on roads and construction projects in Ontario can be accessed through the Ministry of Transportation's Traveller Information Services, which provides road information for provincial highways in Ontario, by calling 511 or by visiting the MTO Ontario 511 website at www.ontario.ca/511. Let's respect workers by making the choice to drive safely this summer.

Kudos has to go to Mayor Mark Walas for his even-handed management of the debate, and to all council members present, especially the three councillors that preferred the long-term solution of a mechanical plant but were willing to fully debate the alternative solution once their first choice was defeated.

Messy streets prompt complaints from residents JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com
Brighton - Tensions ran high at Brighton's planning meeting this month when a local developer vigorously fended off an accusation his company is causing a mess on town streets. Stephen Tobey, owner of Gordon Tobey Developments, reacted angrily to the charge levelled by Fox Den Drive resident Todd Yurcich in a May 18 email that Coun. John Martinello referenced in putting forward a motion last week that the allegation be investigated by staff. The motion further asked that staff ensure Tobey Developments comply with local bylaws and its agreement with the municipality to construct the Hamilton Woods subdivision, and to recommend penalties if necessary to ensure compliance. Tobey initially responded in an email June 11 that his company cleans streets it uses on a regular basis and "deals with each week's needs as they arise." Yurcich expanded on his original complaint in response to Tobey's email, saying "Lance Street was dirty from the equipment driving up and down it. “In my opinion it was not cleaned regularly and (I) only saw the road cleaned ... within two hours of me sending out the email." He said roads were "impassable due to

"There's mud every day," he acknowledged, but these complaints that come from residents "directly to councillors are crap," and intended "to stir the pot." Residents should be making their complaints to municipal staff. "But we don't have any staff," Tobey said. "Our staff keeps quitting here because they're harassed by members of council."

to April 2017. He asked Ashton if there is anything in Brighton's agreements with developers and builders that requires them "to clean streets on a regular basis. I know it happens in any other municipality that's semiadvanced." That drew a profane outburst from another developer in the gallery, Jim Waterhouse, who cursed Martinello. He was ordered to leave by the mayor. Waterhouse called Martinello "a disgrace" before departing and the councillor replied in kind. Martinello's motion was defeated 5-2 in a recorded vote, with only Martinello and Coun. Brian Ostrander voting in favour. "We're getting a little spoiled," Deputy Mayor Roger McMurray said. "A little bit of mud on a paved road is not a big deal in my estimation."

Brighton - Northumberland OPP has released the name of the suspect in a break-in at a Brighton residence on June 13. Dylan Myles Blaker, of no fixed address, has been charged with resisting a peace officer, escaping lawful custody, obstructing a peace officer, two counts of possessing a substance for the purpose of trafficking and failing to comply with a recognizance. Baker was arrested after officers, assisted by the OPP emergency response team, conducted a search following a report a man had been seen by witnesses entering a home brandishing what appeared to be a handgun. The man fled on foot before Northumberland OPP officers arrived at the scene but a man matching a description of the suspect was located nearby a short while later and arrested. Police notified area schools shortly after 10 a.m. to institute their hold and secure protocol while the suspect remained on the loose. The school resumed normal operations after being informed by police around 10:40 a.m. that it "was being released" and that the hold and secure was over. "There were no reported injuries as a result of this incident," OPP media relations officer Const. Kimberly Johnston said in a news release. The OPP K9 unit completed an evidence search of the area, and a stop train order that had been put into effect during that time was subsequently lifted.

ENSS athlete caps extraordinary season by being named athlete of the year JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com
northumberlandnews.com
Brighton - Sam Hall capped a remarkable season by being chosen East Northumberland Secondary School's senior male athlete of the year. He won every high jump event he entered, including the gold medal he won at OFSAA held earlier this month at York University - only the fifth gold medal an ENSS athlete has ever won at the provincial championships. He also set a school record with a jump of 2.13 metres at the eastern regionals in Ottawa. Hall, in fact, has set so many records at meets he's competed in that he's established himself as the number 1 high jumper in Canada under 20 years of age, coach Anne Falla said at the school's Blue Dragons Athletic Banquet held on June 14. Hall, who won a silver medal representing Canada at the Youth Commonwealth Games in the Bahamas last year, is also fleet of foot, holding school records in the 100-m, the 200-m and the 4x100-metre relay. He anchored the ENSS team that won a silver medal at OFSAA and set a school record doing it - 42.48 seconds. Falla said Hall "owns the high jump top 10 list" for ENSS, and occupies almost all of the top spots for 100-m, which includes his school record of 10.85 sec.
"He is a fast and beautiful runner," she said. "Obviously it's a dream come true for any coach who has an athlete of Sam's talent on the roster, but I would also like you to know that Sam is a selfless and humble athlete. He is one of the precious few ... who stays on the bus after the team gets home from a road trip to help the coaches pick up garbage." Allison MacDonald was named senior female athlete of the year. "A dedicated athlete who strives to excel in her high school sporting events, she succeeds in both individual and team sports," coach Julie Lange said. MacDonald won two MVP awards, for track and basketball, where she was a dominant player on the court. Junior athlete of the year Aidan Hussey also excelled in
multiple sports and was MVP for the school's golf and volleyball teams. "His love of the game and belief in the team made him a strong captain (of the volleyball squad)," coach Kelly Northwood. Hussey also played an important role on the junior boys basketball team and was "a pivotal member" of the junior boys badminton team. Hussey's first-place finish at the Bay of Quinte tournament earned him a spot in the singles event at COSSA but he was unable to play because the competition conflicted with his playing the lead role in the school musical, Aida. Autumn Fanjoy is the school's junior girl athlete of the year. She was the school's top midget girl in cross-country and was "a leader on the court" for the volleyball team. She was also a member of the track and field team. Reece Herrington received the award for outstanding contribution to ENSS athletics. During his four years at ENSS, he played soccer, ran crosscountry and was "the franchise player on the track and field team," Falla said. "He pushes himself to be the fittest, best athlete he can be, in practices and in competition." He's also tough, a good sportsman and "a quiet leader ... admired and respected by his teammates," she said. Herrington was a member
of the relay team that won a silver and set an ENSS record. It was the school's first OFSAA relay medal in the school's history.
Top athletes per team ENSS principal Charlotte Filip said the school has a "tradition of excellence in sport" because it has students who are committed athletes, willing to work hard to improve their skills. "Hard work beats talent every time and our athletes know this simple rule."Filip said. ENSS is also very proud of its Special Olympians, who won gold in bocce last year and silver in soccer this year.

Stagecoach king accepted challenge and set a mark in land transport JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - When asked to perform what seemed an impossible feat, William Weller didn't disappoint the Governor General by turning him down. The Cobourg businessperson agreed instead to take his excellency from York to Montreal ... in just 38 hours! In 1840 that was unprecedented. It was a trip that normally took several days, but Weller saw it as an opportunity to further enhance his reputation as the "stagecoach king" of his day. "It was an outrageous thing to do," says Brighton historian Dan Buchanan. "Nobody had ever done it in that time frame."
His new book, 38 Hours to Montreal, is about the challenge that Weller accepted and the circumstances leading up to it. Spoiler alert: Weller did what he was asked, with two hours and 20 minutes to spare. Governor General Charles Poulett Thomson paid him for his services, and Weller earned an additional thousand pounds by wagering on himself that he would beat the deadline. Also of note: The conveyance employed wasn't a stagecoach but a sleigh because the journey was made in February, when the primitive roads were frozen, which facilitated faster travel, as they were terrible for wheeled transport most other times of the year. "It was certainly what we would call a land speed record," and "was seen as a sign of progress," Buchanan said. He was inspired to write the book because he was "intrigued" by Weller and the "effect he had on the

whole development of Upper Canada (Ontario)." He owned several stagecoach lines that ran between Niagara and Montreal, delivering mail and carrying passengers. A retired computer consultant, Buchanan said he's "very interested in understanding the nuts and bolts of ... how society has developed over time ... at the grassroots level."
He's drawn to people in the "middle level of society (who) really put their hands on the problems of the time and improved life on the ground. That's what William Weller did and he did it more effectively than most people" during his heyday, spanning three decades, which included stints as mayor of Cobourg and a council member. "He did all sorts of things to make his business work better," such as designing carriages at his Cobourg factory and putting in features for the comfort, convenience and safety of his passengers. 38 Hours to Montreal is "written as a narrative so you're sitting on the sleigh with Mr. Weller all the way down the line, seeing what he's seeing." "When I first started to look at this story, my first question was why was the Governor General in such a damn hurry," Buchanan said with a laugh. It was to speed up reforms in how Upper and Lower Canada were being
governed and Thomson's efforts helped paved the way for their union and ultimately Confederation. His "boss" back in London, Lord John Russell, was "urging him to work quickly" and the promise of a peerage upon completion of his assignment provided further incentive to

Brighton -- Dan Buchanan will be at Lighthouse Books on June 30, to kick off the sale of his second book 38 Hours to Montreal, his tale of stagecoach king William Weller's trip from York to Montreal in 1840 with the Governor General as his passenger. "I always want to do everything I can to support my local book store and this is an obvious place and time to do it," he said in an email announcing his book signing at Lighthouse, which will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Later that day, from 2 to 4 p.m., he'll be at Let's Talk Books in Cobourg, where the story of Weller, who was a businessman in the town, "resonates" and Buchanan has many supporters. The store is located on
Covert Street, just north of Victoria Hall. Buchanan will be selling his book personally on Canada Day at the Codrington Farmers' Market from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Signed versions will be available at $20
proceed with haste. He "got things done, and he would have recognized William Weller as the same kind of man," Buchanan said. To learn more about The History Guy and his latest work, visit http:// danbuchananhistoryguy.com.

Writer wants to harness his people skills to being a Brighton councillor
JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Writing a weekly column about interesting people in the community has not only made Victor Schukov "a better person," it's also made him want to run for council. He's profiled more than 150 people and it's given him "a great cross-section of understanding of what people like and what they don't like around here," he said. He shares their feelings. "I'd just like Brighton pretty much to stay the way it is, and stay healthy," Schukov said. "Brighton is
really the sweet spot between Toronto and Montreal." He was living in Montreal when he decided to retire here in 2014 after working 40 years as a chemical engineer, and concurrently as a professional writer for half that time. Schukov, who's 65, said a lot of people have told him they are looking for "new blood" on a council that is divided in order to correct its "imbalances." "It would seem to me a real healthy council would have most of the councillors on the same page," he said. Being on council would be "my way of volunteer-
ing. I'm looking for some way to give back, and this is the best way I could do it, it harnesses my people skills," he said. Moreover, with his engineering background, Schukov said he's "extremely well-trained, particularly in processes," and he would apply that knowledge and experience to help solve elevated levels of ammonia in Brighton's effluent. "I hope to contribute and get this thing settled finally," he said. He also wants to add "a couple of specialty shops that are really interesting," and to have "clean industries fill up the industrial
park." Schukov said the municipality could be doing more to promote tourism, such as "spruce up the town a bit ... Make Brighton brighter." "Sustainability of the mom-and-pop businesses for me is everything," he continued. They give Brighton "the small-town feel." For that reason council has to proceed "very carefully" in how it manages change and growth so that it can maintain the image that people find so appealing. Otherwise, "before you know it, it's not the same place."

Submitted/Cheryl Lafferty
Although inevitable, death is an emotional subject that’s difficult to discuss. While estate planning can make people uncomfortable, it is an essential part of securing assets for future generations and can make a death in the family easier for loved ones to handle. Estate planning is an umbrella term that refers to a host of things that must be done prior to a person’s death. When done right, estate planning can prevent family feuds and ensure that the deceased’s estate stays in the hands of family rather than being relegated to the government. Estate planning can be a complex process, so men and women should seek help to ensure the process goes smoothly. Getting Started Estate planning should begin early in a person’s life. It’s easy to talk about saving for a home or retirement, but it’s not so simple to discuss who will care for your children should you die while they are still minors. Those who are not able to sort through these answers on their own should enlist the help of an attorney or a financial adviser, both of whom can take some of the emotion out of the discussion and put it in more practical terms. The Will A will is an important component of estate planning. Without clearly and legally spelling out your wishes, there is no guarantee that those wishes will be honored. It will be up to a state or province to make potentially life-altering decisions that can impact your surviving family members, and the only way to ensure your wishes will be carried out is to put them into a will. Although men and women can write their own wills, many people prefer to seek the assistance of an attorney, who can make sure all necessary details are included in the will. Medical Directives In addition to a will, estate planning includes your wishes if you become incapacitated or suffer from a serious medical condition that precludes you from making decisions about • Drafting wills, powers of your care and finances. Spouses can be named attorney, and codicils to make important health decisions, but you may want to indicate other information, such as life • Assisting with all estate support measures or organ donation, as well. If you have strong opinions on treatment, medical matters, including; applications directives and living wills are a necessity. for certificates of appointment Funeral Arrangements Another aspect of estate planning concerns (probate) funeral arrangements.

Funeral planning may include choosing a burial Commercial/Corporate, plot, selecting a casket, indicating cremation, and and General Law services. paying for everything in advance so there is no financial burden on surviving family members.

June is Reasons to include more dairy in your diet
A healthy diet can improve quality of life and reduce a person’s risk of developing disease or other negative health conditions. For example, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables can boost the immune system and promote cardiovascular health, lowering your risk of heart disease in the process. While the benefits of including fruits and vegetables in your diet are widely known, the medical benefits of dairy are often overlooked. The following are a handful of ways that dairy products like low-fat milk, cottage cheese and yogurt can make a nutritious
and beneficial addition to your diet. • Dairy packs a protein- and calcium-laden punch. One cup of nonfat yogurt can provide as much as one-third of your daily recommended calcium intake and nearly 20 percent of your daily recommended protein intake. Though dairy products like ice cream don’t pack the same nutritious punch as yogurt, healthier fare like reduced-fat cheese and skim milk can go a long way toward meeting your daily intake of protein and calcium.
• Dairy is a great source of vitamin D. In addition to providing sufficient calcium and protein, dairy also helps men, women and children boost their vitamin D. That’s especially important in the winter months when people tend to get less exposure to the sun. Exposure to the sun is a natural way to boost your vitamin D, but the shorter days and colder weather of winter can make it hard to get sufficient vitamin D during that time of year.
Dairy products like low-fat milk can boost your vitamin D, which can improve your bone health and, according to recent research, might help reduce your cancer risk. • Dairy may help lower your blood pressure. Men and women with high blood pressure might benefit from including more dairy in their diets. In a study of 5,000 adults, Spanish researchers found that those who reported consuming the most low-fat dairy products were more than 50 percent less likely to develop high blood pressure than those who consumed less low-fat dairy. Though researchers are not certain as to the reason behind low-fat dairy products’ impact on blood pressure, some
theorize that their calcium and protein content are likely behind the benefit. • Dairy benefits your bones. Dairy has long been known to improve bone density. But it’s not just seniors who benefit from the bone-strengthening impact of dairy. Youngsters who consume dairy can also expect an increase in bone mass, which can make them less susceptible to injuries like broken bones. Seniors who consume dairy to improve their bone density should know that a recent study from researchers at the Institute for Aging Research found that not all dairy products are equal when it comes to improving bone density. While milk and yogurt were linked to higher bone
mineral density, dairy products like cream and ice cream contain less protein, calcium and vitamin D and more fat and sugar than yogurt and milk, and these products may actually be associated with lower bone mineral density. Though there are many ways men and women can improve their overall health, it’s important to consider the nutritional value of dairy when making any alterations to your diet.
