Cow milk is superior to Soy Milk.

“1. Superior means to be better or of greater quality or importance.” Something we can both agree one. “2. Cow's Milk has greater nutritional value then Soy Milk.” According to your own source, the USDA, both Cow's Milk & Soy Milk have the same proportion of protein at 8g per cup.2,3 Soy Milk also has dietary fiber, which is required for healthy digestion. Your Cow's Milk has none. Everyone knows that iron is required for strong bones. Guess what? Soy Milk has over THIRTY times the amount of iron that Cow's Milk has!2,3 Soy Milk even has 3x more Folate than Cow's Milk. Why is Folate important, you ask? Well, good sir, it's an essential nutrient, which means that without it, YOU DIE. Folate is needed for healthy blood cells and prevents anemia.5 “3. Cow's Milk costs less.” That's because it is of lesser quality and importance. Cheaper things are less superior to more expensive ones. This is common sense. “4. Therefore(from 2-3), Cow's Milk is superior to Soy Milk.” False, as I've already explained and will elaborate on. “When comes to fat, Soy Milk certainly does has the advantage for fat in both overall fat and saturated fat, this is not in question. I don't think that the higher fat quantity is what really makes us fat. Why is it so bad then? The carbohydrates.” That argument fails before it even starts. Fat people are fat because they have a lot of... fat! Not carbohydrates. Nobody calls people with a lot of carbohydrates... “carbo” or anything like that. Besides, a popular bodybuilding practice is to load up on carbohydrates (read: consume a LOT of carbohydrates) both before and after a workout. Carbohydrate loading is even done before bodybuilding exhibitions! If carbohydrates were so evil, bodybuilders wouldn't be eating so much of them. Allow me to quote Arnold Schwarzenegger himself: “I was carb backloading before it was hip”4 And here is an unflattering photo of Arnold devouring pure carbohydrates: FAT is the problem, not carbohydrates, and your beloved Cow's Milk has more fat than the Soy Milk you attempt to vilify. I will now initiate my offensive. Most people are lactose intolerant.1 This means that Cow's Milk makes them sick, makes their farts stink, causes bloating, diarrhea, and a host of other nasty problems. Soy Milk can be drunk by everybody, even people with lactose intolerance, with 0 ill effects! Soy Milk can also be drunk by vegetarians, as it isn't derived from animal products. Cow's Milk cannot be argued superior if the majority of the world's population cannot even drink it without violating their beliefs or becoming physically ill! “I didn't even need to go into the testosterone lowering effects of Soy or the detrimental effect of Soy on the digestive system.” Cow's Milk is worse for the digestive system than Soy Milk is. Also, the testosterone lowering effects of Soy help to prevent Roid-Rage6, which is known for causing violent crime. You don't hear about Soy Milk turning people into killers, do you? Didn't think so. Cow's Milk is not superior to Soy Milk. 1http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov... 2http://ndb.nal.usda.gov... 3http://ndb.nal.usda.gov... 4http://www.hollywood.com... 5http://ods.od.nih.gov... 6http://www.foxnews.com...
