Story of the Day...Milk causes Calcium deficiency?

Herbs once drank whole milk and lots of it. I recently tried to get him to drink soymilk but that's a very difficult proposition. Whole milk tastes incredible and creamy and soymilk just kind of grows on you.

I like soymilk with oatmeal and brown sugar.

I like soymilk in coffee sometimes.

I like soymilk with Lucky Charms. That's healthfood.

Some milk news is happening. Medical School's home library contributed to this blog, otherwise this is hearsay to be denied in a court of law. This is a living breathing story with documentation to come. Here's the nuts and bolts:
  • Dairy Council spending ~$200 million to promote milk drinking as a weight loss technique
  • Corporations still pushing worldwide calcium deficiency propaganda when only U.S. and Canada, two biggest milk guzzlers ironically, are mildly deficient while rest of the world is cool.
  • Overindulgence of milk products actuyally causes the body to absorb less calcium.

Face it, this is utter madness. More to come on this milk matter.
