However, there are those that join the ranks of Derek Hoyme, Leslie Wilcox, Chris Holstrom and Robyn Wyatt and come out as officially allergic to milk. Our milk intolerance really isn't all that curious. Humans are the only species that consumes milk after infancy, especially that of another species. Cow milk is perfectly designed to properly nourish a calf. I assume that I need not mention that the nutritional needs of a calf are not the same those of a human.
Calcium comes from green, leafy vegetables, nuts and some grains.
A diet that includes calcium in addition to weight training can successfully prevent osteoporosis. All this without mentioning the nasty hormones injected into cattle to produce more milk or the environmental degradation caused by billions of cow farts. Americans have been warped into seeing milk as a divine and necessary substance by an active and powerful Dairy Council. Take a closer look at the facts for yourself, reject the propaganda that is being shoved down our throats by those with a vested interest, and try a milk alternative. Personally, I hope to have to stand in line for my soy alternative in the caf tomorrow.
