I've heard that Milk causes more harm than good...?

Question

*ALL* cow's milk (regular and 'organic') has 59 active hormones, scores of allergens, fat and cholesterol.

Most cow's milk has measurable quantities of herbicides, pesticides, dioxins (up to 200 times the safe levels), up to 52 powerful antibiotics (perhaps 53, with LS-50), blood, pus, f***s, bacteria and viruses.

So why do we continue to drink Cow's Milk? Isn't it for their poor babies...who barely get any milk because we're so busy hogging it all?

So sad.

calfs get a LOT of milk. my gramps is a farmer, i should know. ike the guy said, some milks will tell u if they have hormones and such in them. also, if u r still worried, try soy or organic milk. they are both reli great for u, and taste delicious!!! just don't buy milk from asia and i think u will be safe!=]

Answer 4

you are so right about all the nasty things that are in our milk supply. if you only knew! creameries cannot test all the milk from individual farms. so they blend it all together and take the tests from the entire combination. that way, the tests only show results that are below the required government standards.

the only milk that doesn't have all those things in it is milk that screams at you with a label NO HORMONES, NO CHEMICALS OF ANY KNID,  OR ANTIBOTICS. this milk, of course gets a premium price. even organic milk has the additives the cow ate before being milked. they just haven't added anything after the cow has been milked.

government regulations and testing procedures and guidelines are a joke. do you think they are in your best interest, or do they favor the farmer who has huge subsiities (sp?) from the government?

milk comes from cows that are not cleaned properly twice a day before milking, have mastitis's or are otherwise sick (you didn't think all that milk was thrown away did you? that is the profit margin the farmer's need to stay in business.

to be quite honest about it, a human adult has no need at all to drink cow's milk. they have been brainwashed by the farmer's and the media to believe that it is the only way to get the nutrients they need for good health. this is so untrue! all the calcium, vitamins, and fat can all be gotten from other sources, mostly from plants. careful attention to the consumption of food or combinations of food will give you a balanced diet without milk. there have been many, many whole societies which have thrived and prospered without using milk in their diets.

you are absolutly right. cow's milk is for baby cow's. goat's milk is for baby goat's. human milk is for baby human's. do you think the human population would be drinking milk if it came from the mother's of human babies?

don't think so!
