I have been reading about facts and fallacies about milk for awhile and has come up with some important information to share. Tell me what you think about it.
While there is some argument that milk is the best source of calcium and human needs to drink milk in order to prevent calcium deficiency, I have noticed that not everyone drinks milk everyday. How about vegans? How do they survive without milk? Research has shown that vegetarian have a lower risk of osteoporosis than non-vegetarian who has a dairy product on a daily basis.

In the other hand, milk has been introduced into our food chain for centuries. (Even the Bible mention it ) Osteoperosis have just been another popular disease for this modern time. I cannot argue that milk is not good for your health because obviously, people have been drinking milk for many generations. Here comes the solution : Maybe 'milk' is not the problem but how it is treated that matters.

I am not a vegan, and I eat dairy products once in a while. I don't oppose milk that it is a bad food, and I don't really support that milk is the best food either. Let's see here what the studies have shown about milk.

Milk is the white liquid that is especially produced by the female species of warm-blooded animals . Mammals have mammary glands that are specialized in separating different substances from the blood and combined them into the substance we know as milk. Because the blood has to pass through this gland in order to produce milk, thus milk contains several chemical components, which are passed from the blood. Cow's milk that you see in white color contains a half-million white blood cells per milliliter.  

You may have heard someone say about a growth hormone that they inject into cows. This hormone is called bovine growth hormone or BGH. It is supposed to stimulate milk production and cause no harm to milk or meat. However, here is the problem, BGH causes a dramatic increase in mastitis ( inflammation of the udder.) and this condition requires antibiotic therapy, and the residues of the antibiotics also appear in the milk. 

It is contaminated.

Simply say that drugs, antibiotics and hormones used in cows are not good for human health. Because milk production has been increased rapidly in the last 50 years to respond to the demand of milk, the only possible way is to use technology of chemicals, drugs, forced feeding plans and specialized breeding. Cows eating pesticide, or herbicide-sprayed feed tend to accumulate residues in their meat, fat, and milk.

Below are some studies related to milk and health. 

It is now known that early feeding of human babies on cow's milk tend to increase the developing of cow's milk allergy. This happens to one in ten babies. Common symptoms include diarrhea, vomiting, colic, asthma and sleeplessness. Cow's milk should not be given to infants under four months. It is best to avoid feeding babies with cow's milk until they're one year old.

Major part of milk is protein. Too much protein will make the blood become acidic. The body needs to neutralize the acid by taking calcium from bones. Besides calcium in milk is harder for the body to absorb than calcium in plants. This may also link to the lost of calcium in bones.
