1. Pure bull shit.
Yes Cows should not get all those chemicals but overall taken
in the right amounts diary products taste good, are loaded w/
"good things," and are used by humans very well thank you.

Late night info-merical as real science / news.

6. Lactose Intolerance
Milk is for baby animals. That's a no-brainer.

Human children with teeth enough to chew solid foods can find better sources of calcium and protein, without additives that are the bovine equivalent of steroids.

Adults no longer harbor the enzyme in their guts to digest it properly, and so develop a nasty, gaseous (and worse) intolerance. Some do better with small amounts of fermented products (cheese, yogurt), which is already biologically altered.

The "drink three glasses every day" dictum promulgated by the dairy industry is probably another one of the "obesity epidemic" contributors, interpreted as it was to represent a minimum daily requirement. Indeed, I grew up knowing families where it was gulped like water.

7. i agree with you.
children should be breast fed -- then soy or rice milk can be used -- never cow's milk. broccoli has more calcium than milk.

the dairy industry is very powerful and i agree that they contribute to obesity.

ever notice how almost everything has cheese now? today i went into the "cracker barrel" and they had a new dish "apple cheddar chicken".

not to be gross but a doctor i know said "if you drink milk -- you're actually drinking the animal's blood -- minus the hemoglobin."
