– STOP Drinking Milk –
Milk contains animal hormones, those of either cow, goat or sheep. Now ask yourselves what animals other than humans consume milk from other mammals. You’re right. None. That is because it’s not at all nutritious or beneficial to growth, bone development or increasing calcium levels in the body. The pituitary gland releases the hormone prolactin which stimulates our growth and milk does not increase its release from the gland nor has it been proven to strengthen bone. Calcium is produced by the body in adequate quantities and its intake can be increased through consuming enough protein. I took a blood test not long ago to check my calcium levelskeep in mind that I never drank cow’s milk or that of another animal in my life and amusingly enough I had a slight excess of calcium by 0.2 more than the average person who presumably drinks milk regularly (~10.2 normal parameter) since I consume enough protein by including meat in the vast majority of my meals which is the core source for protein. You may ask yourself how is there more calcium in meat? We are falsely being told that a glass of milk contains roughly 300 mg of calcium. That would make a glass of pure milk and that is not what we’re given in milk cartons is stores today. If you were, for example to milk a cow yourself at a farm then you would have pure milk. Still, this milk will not taste quite as good as the processed store milk. The hormones and bacteria present set the foundation for numerous health issues especially autoimmune disease like type 1 diabetes, celiac disease, IBS, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis and MS. A dairy free diet has proven to allevite the inflammatory response
