healthy cereals and skim milk are not good for you.

Why not? As long as it fits within your macros...

Personally I have no idea why humans think it is healthy to drink a cows breast milk.

I don't think healthy cereals is bad as long as you don't have alot of sugar in it and the more whole grain the better. That is just for the simple fact of, it will make you feel fuller longer and quicker. Sugary cereal blows threw you quick!

Exactly. Calorie in and out. Whole grains make you feel more full, so real "healthy" cereal can be good for you if you need portion control.

I miss the golden days of childhood eating those frosted flakes. Sugary goodness.

I read somewhere that all this healthy stuff is not good for dieting. If anything knows alternatives please share!

Not good how? I eat a bowl of bran flakes most every morning, I love it, yum!

Is there a human milk production facility that I haven't heard of? If not...

Because it's delicious and also a good source of protein.

This. Milk is a great source of nutrients. Provided you don't have a lactose issue and aren't vegan there is no reason not to drink it.

OP... nothing is bad to have unless you have a medical issue with a certain food.

Or a baby cow for that matter. I agree, it's unnatural.

Unnatural would be a cow getting into the debate online with all you amazing creatures.

it is unnatural, as in we are the only animals that drink another animals milk. weather its natural or not I don't really think is the point.

is it good for us?

well, the main reason that people say it is, is for calcium.... but heres what Harvard had to say on that.

"it’s also not clear that dairy products are really the best source of calcium for most people."

so for most people, dairy is not the best source. interesting.

ok so what about other nutrients.....

Almond Milk and Cow's Milk Compared

Compared to cow's milk, almond milk is the much healthier choice. Almond milk contains a wide variety of the vitamins and minerals that your body needs to function. Almond milk also contains high levels of antioxidants, so it can help prevent many types of cancer and slow the signs of aging. Almond milk is also great for those who can't drink cow's milk due to lactose intolerance, or a casein or gluten allergy; however, those with tree nut allergies should avoid almond milk because it could elicit a dangerous allergic reaction.

Whole cow's milk contains a lot more calories and fat than almond milk, making almond milk the better choice for those on a diet. Cow's milk also contains saturated fat and cholesterol; almond milk is free of both saturated fat and cholesterol, making it a healthier choice, especially for those with heart problems.

While cow's milk contains high levels of calcium, and is fortified with vitamins A and D to help you meet your daily requirements of these vitamins, almond milk contains high levels of a wide range of necessary vitamins and therefore has a higher nutritional value than cow's milk. The only thing that cow's milk has more of than almond milk is protein; cow's milk has eight grams of protein per serving while almond milk has only one gram per serving.

so almond milk has a higher nutritional value, lower cals, is free of both saturated fat and cholesterol and only at the expense of lower protein.

so.... it would seem that it is not a very good source of calcium, its main draw card, and secondly inferior to other options due to less nutrients, and more bad fat/cholesterol.

I drink milk every day, but im not under the impression that its great for you. is it a little bit weird that we drink another animals milk, a little bit but meh, humans are weird.

im not knocking milk like "oh my god, that came from bovine titties... burn it with fire!", i drink it every day, but we should all think about what we eat, and be informed.
