    Good for you, OP, this helps keeps prices down for the rest of us. Now, please also make sure that you give up lobster, prime rib, and expensive real estate . . .

    Recently I stopped drinking cow's milk, first I ditched full cream because it was too 'heavy' and then just gave it up completely in favour of almond milk. IMHO, milk was designed to make a 100 kg calf into a 1000 kg cow. Not good for us! Also, there's that myth about pus and blood. I know it's not true but it gets me every time... ugh.

    I like almond milk in my coffee and sub it out to save calories in some dessert recipes. Milk isn't bad for you though, although that's a popular MFP myth people like to spout on here. In fact I sure your trolling right now with your op. Raw milk has excellent health benefits and most people who are lactose intolerant have no problems drinking raw milk. Most of the benefits of milk are lost in the pasteurization process. That's why calves often don't survive when fed pasteurized milk. I'm sure someone will chime in in how bad it is for you momentarily....

    Eh. I fed my kids raw human milk and frozen human milk. Many of the benefits were lost during the freezing process, but I wouldn't say most. However, raw milk is an effective topical antibiotic (anti-viral agent as well)

    After some research, I came to the conclusion that neither cow's milk nor almond milk can be processed so as to get you effed up. I therefore declare it a draw.

    How many animals cook their food?

    How many animals sit at a desk every day?

    How many animals read?

    How many animals built modern civilization?

    How many animals wear clothes?

    The appeal to nature, of which this is a variety, is a classic fallacious rhetorical tactic.

    Many but not most huh? Kinda splitting hairs if you ask me. Anyways freezing is the opposite of pasteurizing so I wouldn't try to compare the effects of the two.

    OP: Why are you asking a question in the topic if you're making a assertion in the body of the OP?

    Are you attempting to incite a riot over milk?

    :huh:


    It appears you really don't want to ask a question, you want to argue why you're 'right'.

    Finally, someone who gets it. Dairy is for making baby mammals fat. Congrats for opening your eyes
    I wish you could explain this to the farmers in the U.S who have this for their livelihood. Since you seem to have a opinion on every subject on these boards, explain why since you always make others give examples.

    Don't get the whole other animals don't drink milk argument. It's not like they choose not to, it isn't an option for them. If you give it to them they will drink it people. Don't you have any pets?

    Freezing destroys the immune factors and changes the fats. What additional effects does pasteurizing have?
