    Daily intake of recommended amounts of milk and dairy products (300 ml) will not increase the risk of bladder cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer and colon cancer. Fermented yogurt has a certain protective effect on preventing colon cancer. Therefore, it is safe for cancer patients to drink milk and yogurt. Yogurt is better than pure milk during chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
