Is too much milk healthy?

Not that I know of, unless you are talking an extreme amount, as too much anything would be bad.


I hear some people say that you should avoid dairy altogether, as it is not "natural" for humans to drink cow milk. I suppose they have a point, but I like milk and dairy. It is a good way to get protein and calcium.

I always buy skim milk. At first if you are switching over from something heavier it will taste watered down but you get used to it and then the others seem very creamy.

I dont know much about the hormones used in cows that gets transferred to the milk, maybe someone else could comment on that.

 

Agreed.

As natural as it is to eat chicken eggs. The reason other animals don't drink it is because they have problems milking cows.

I'm back to whole unpasteurized milk

Quality of dairy depends on how the cow was fed. I only use milk and butter from biologically fed cows that are out in the field in summer.

 

In most places of the world people don't eat dairy products. They stay healthy enough. Anybody who thinks that dairy is a necessity is mistaken. By the way, the scientific research clearly shows that putting milk in your tea reduces the beneficial effects of drinking tea.

 

No single food source is a necessity, but they can all contribute to a healthy diet.

Source please.

Milk causes lung congestion and thickening of the mucus in your lungs and ears ... therefore if you have asthma, like me.... avoid it where possible.

 

Milk is a congester, an animal protein which serves no good purpose.

Humans should be drinking goats milk for compatibility reasons. Cows milk is a poison.

But of course, when I have a cuppa, I still use it. Old habits die hard.

 

As an adult, you need CALCIUM... not dairy....

Drinking too muck milk will 'hold in your chest'... As kids, we naturarally broke it down, turned it into solids..

Too much dairy will limit a mans cardio-vascular circ.

 

Too much of anything is bad for you. I think the posters already covered this.

BUT, like what someone mentioned is that milk pretty much takes away all the antioxidant benefits you might have been receiving from the green tea, so I would start drinking the tea without it.

A gallon a day keeps the bullies away.

 

A gallon? Damn. Sounds like you'd be training for an eating contest rather than a boxing match at that rate.
