Is Your Consumpton of milk products - Healthy - Deadly - or somewhere in between

Updated on January 10, 2011

Is consuming milk for your health a panacea or a poison?

It's poison according to the author of the book "MILK - THE DEADLY POISON" Robert Cohen

Someone has put out a video on utube about the subject of milk produced especially with the use of artificial growth hormone in order to produce more milk at a lower cost.

According to researcher and author Robert the protein "casein" that is in whey protein from milk prevents the absorbtion of calcium. So,why is milk seen as a panacea concerning calcium consumption? He says that we can get more calcium from garbonzo beans also known as chick peas160 miligrams per serving and Ammerith grain which has 260 milligrams per serving.

His research shows that the countries with the most osteoperosis from a lack of calcium absorption are Denmark,Norway,Holland,and Sweden.all of which consume large quanities of dairy products made from milk as well as milk itself.

Is this a good reason not to drink milk?

What about Yogert? It's made from milk !

Some Yogert is made with fat free milk.

Fat free milk has more calcium per serving than milk with fat in it.

Another question I have is

what effect does the fat in our milk have on our health?

I know toxins accumilate in fats,so do hormones as far as I know.I may be wrong about hormones being in fats although they may be in the proteins in milk.In that case artificial hormones in milk would be a bad idea if it's shown to cause breast cancer as has been the case in Denmark Norway,Holland and Sweden.

Fat free or skim milk is healthier than whole milk or 1% or 2% milk.

Another question

Why is milk homoginized ?

To keep the fat from seperating from the milk protein which naturally seperates.

Maybe,the biggest problem with consuming milk is the lack of the ability of many people to absorb calcium as well as lactose or milk sugar in milk.

Vitamin D3 is said to be crucial for overall health and we in the UnitedStates usually put vitamin D3 in our milk for that reason.

Should we consume only fat free milk and or milk that is also lactose free,including fat free yogert? I should say that in order for vitamin D3 to be absorbed it has to be consumed with a fat from some source. I've mixed fat free yogert with flaxseed oil and or soybean oil. Faxseed oil is high in omega 3 fatty acids.

Yogert is rich in sulfur rich protein which healthy to consume with a little omega 3 fatty acid mixed in along with fresh fruit.No extra sugar though.

The Yogert we eat should have at least six live yogert cultures that begin with an "L" which means large intestine and "B" which stands for small Bowls or lower intestine

Even then we should take a probiotic that has all the good bacteria we need for optimum health. 70% of our immune system is in our intestines.

You should ask your doctor about your bodies ability to tolerate milk and milk products and how your health might be affected by consuming them.
