 I'm not sure if this is the best newgroup, but I was wondering
about a few things:

   (1): What exactly is whey, and what it it's nutritional value.
   (2): What nutrients are lost when whole milk is converted to 
        skim milk.
   (3): Is using distilled water for drinking and cooking wise.  I've
        heard it can drain the body of minerals.
   (4): What is the current concensus on 'multi-vitamins', and for what
        vitamins is it OK to take over 100% USRDA (some go as high as
        2000% USRDA).

references to information on the above would be appreciated.
