Milk! Does A Body Bad

As kids we are told to drink our milk... but WHY??

Dairy products are a health hazard. They contain no fiber or complex carbohydrates and are full of saturated fat & cholesterol. They are contaminated with cow's blood and pus along with pesticides, growth hormones, and antibiotics.

Milk does not build strong bones, but actually weakens them and accelerates osteoporosis. Osteoporosis results from calcium loss, which is caused by drinking milk. Dairy products have a high-protein content that leaches calcium from the body through urine. That's right, consumption of milk causes the very condition it's advertised to prevent. Pretty scary huh? You can decrease your risk of osteoporosis by reducing sodium and animal protein intake & increasing fruits and vegetables. Dark leafy greens such as: brussels sprouts, broccoli, and kale all give the body a greater absorption of calcium than dairy products.

Milk does not "do a body good." Milk is the leading cause of iron-deficiency anemia in infants, and the American Academy of Pediatrics now discourages giving children milk before their first birthday. Julian Whitaker, MD is the editor of Health & Healing, which states that milk consumption during childhood also contributes to the development of Type-I diabetes, milk allergies, sinus problems, constipation and fatigue. Over 1/4 of Americans experience allergic reactions, poor digestion, and mucous build-up when they consume milk.
