    I like almond milk for its flavor. However, a lot of it is fortified with calcium carbonate, which makes me constipated (TMI?). I'm currently drinking Pacific Natural Foods organic almond milk that is not fortified. Then I pick up my calcium intake from dairy or calcium citrate tablets.
  • Glad somebody said it! Put a few commercials on tv about the "benefits" of dairy and everyone thinks it's good for them! Cow's milk is not for human consumption and anyone that does minimal research on it can find numerous reports NOT funded by the Dairy Association that make it clear it's not healthy for people...it actually increases the risk of osteoporosis, among other health problems. Not to mention the cruel treatment of cows in factory farms. Really sad!

    it is absolutely vital for the health, well being, and life of dairy cows that they be milked. they have been bread to such an extent that they produce ten times more milk than the calf could ever need. for this reason among others they are completely dependent on those that care for them. we need to take responsibility for caring for these animals that were created for us.
