Is Milk good or bad for you?!


Question:

Is Milk good or bad for you?

I've Herd that Milk is good for you because it builds strong bones, But I've also herd that it is bad for you because it has puss. Wich is correct?


Answers:

Milk has calcium in it which is good for you. However, the condition most dairy cows are raised in is conducive to infection and bacteria so milk may have traces of those bacteria in it. Cows are also given growth hormones to help them mature faster so they can be productive sooner so you are consuming those hormones from their milk as well.

There is a lot of controversy about how healthy milk is for people. Some people suggest skipping cows milk and drinking soy milk, but that has it's own set of problems (it has a lot of estrogen in it which can encourage cancer and also can cause males to have more feminine characteristics since it is a primarily "female" hormone).

I suggest you read up on it, become informed, and then make your decision based on your understanding of the information you have read. A good place to start is with your favorite search engine.
