Milk? :O

Yeo Valley Organic Milk..... Mmmmmmmmmm.

On topic, why do indians always seem to buy whole fat milk :confused:

Technically, our bodies haven't evolved enough yet to metabolise bovine milk fully - however, raw milk is absolutely fantastic and has so much nutritious value and content. Naturally some people will be intollerant, it's nature's way of segregating the population.


Milk is awesome, and I drink a fair bit of it - but as often as I can I keep to the raw stuff, but it's expensive, so stick to the unhomoginised full fat stuff! :cool:

Raw milk is vile isnt it? I used to live next door to a couple of farms and they gave me some "milk" to try, I nearly vomited when I tryed it.

What a load of ********.

And the levels of lactose intolerance in other cultures are thought to be due to the different points in history at which they domesticated cows.

Not all of it is BS.

when my son was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome about 9yrs ago, we were advised to see if he was lactose intolerant. As parents we believed what we were told about milk being healthy.

Our son was dairy free for just over 4 weeks (which is quite hard when they are 9yrs old). After that he went back onto dairy and the impact was very noticeable, very quickly. He became very sick and the elements of his Asperger's syndrome got worse.

I think milk and dairy products, like many other things, should be taken in moderation.

I never understood people buying raw milk:confused:

Just find your self a local Dairy farmer and you should get your self a great price for it. Probably close to being Free:D

Do you chill it? I can't stand milk that's even slightly above fridge temperature.

Yup. Stays fresh a little longer. Owing to the fact it isn't pasturised you do have to make sure you get through it - you can freeze it, but it's clearly not quite what you'd want to do.

It's a little expensive compared to normal milk, but it's a treat.

Clearly I'm turning into a cow thanks to all the hormones! ;)

Nope, it tastes rich and thick and full of flavour.
 
drink 3-4 pints of full fat / semi skimmed depending on what feel like a day, pint in morning then in evening and usually another before bed and some with cereal as well. never had any issues with it i dont think :D

My wife and daughters are lactose intolerant, so I'm fairly familiar with all this, and I've discussed lactose intolerance already in this thread.

I don't believe that the milk caused your son's Asperger's symptoms - not directly anyway. I'd guess his usual symptoms appeared worse because he was irritable because his bowels were giving him gyp. I await your vociferous arguments on that latter point.

Anyway. That a minority of people are lactose intolerant does not mean that milk is inherently unhealthy. Some people die of anaphylactic shock if they eat peanuts, but that doesn't mean all of us should stop eating them.

I live in London - there are no farms nearby. :)

My wife used to work in a school in Leicester that was full of really sheltered city kids. They once had a school trip to a farm and the kids were amazed by how big the cows were. They thought they were dog sized or something, because they'd only ever seen them on the side of a milk carton. Weird.

Furthermore any woman who drinks it while pregnant will transfer the addiction to her unborn child. :(

It might just be the way you've phrased it but that reads as if there might be cases where it's not transmitted i.e. the woman doesn't drink dihyrogen monoxide during pregnancy and so can circumvent the addiction. If you find the way of doing so tell me how, I don't want any future children of mine to start with such a dehabilitating addiction before they are even born...

Have a look in the Post A Picture Of Yourself thread for Gustov - I reckon the photograph looks more like he's part of a low rent boyband though, maybe sub 911 sort of level of achievement.

Milk isn't the problem there is it. Your child did not get Asperger's from milk.
 
What a load of crock. The opening argument falls flat on it's face. You stop eating something for months and then try eating it, chances are it will not agree with you.
