Stay away from____________!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello! I have been staying away from milk since I was born because I am allergic to it (my mother had to feed me with carrot juice and other stuff). But I want to defend it! I don't really understand the argument that the milk of the cows is made to feed baby cows, so we should not drink it... We still use it for butter and cream and cheese and who would want to stay completely away from them?

As far as the hormons are concerned, my feeling is if the cattlles were not fed with crap and if they were not injected with crap then the milk would be way better. Feed a cow with a good grass and let it live its life and you'll have a amazing milk!

Norwadays "organic food" is the trend but it should be a standard (sorry for the bad word).

Well, it was my first post here, so nice to meet you guys, I am Anne.

And I right now I am staying away from all the sugar and sodium of the processed food.

Stay away from milk. All the hormones and it's not natural to drink milk anyways after being weaned.. Unless you're that 10 year old on the cover of the magazine this week

Hey I drink milk every day and I've yet to grow a dingdong so I don't see where the problem is.

Horomones in milk won't make you grow a "ding dong." It will just mess up the horomones you have.

Well aware of that, I was making a joke. I may be young but I'm not as stupid as some of my generation, thanks.

I'm pretty sure the use of the words "ding" and "dong" means it was a joke. Not sure how anyone couldn't see that!!!!

Dig dongs are a very serious matter.

When I saw the title, I was gonna say "Amber"

Me too!

It's not natural to drink it because milk comes from COWS. Cow's milk is for baby cows, we are not cows! If you want to drink milk it should be a human's milk, not a cow's. Besides, we aren't meant to drink milk once we are able to eat solid foods.
Who wants to drink something that is meant to help a baby cow grow to over 400 pounds in 8-10 months?

This logic on this is....well..... illogical

There's a protein in milk and other dairy products called casein that studies show causes cancer. But so does everything else apparently.

Would love to see the case studies also.

But - even if true - it does not negate the fact that the arguement made above is illogical.

human meat...tastes like spam

i really dont get this amber thing especially since my name is amber

............Yet. :smokin:

lol. you can solve that hormone problem and get some fresh farm milk sold at a local market. i have read that dairy is not a necessity, although there seems to be some mixed research on that.
i stay away from high fructose corn syrup. that **** nasty.

hmmmm...I intentionally take a casein protein powder frequently

do you have source for this claim?

I didn't claim it.....

but if you have access to peer reviews from a college or library, try this one:

The Influence of Dietary Casein Level on Tumor Induction with 2-Acetylaminofluorene
R. W. Engel and D. H. Copeland
Cancer Res 1952;12:905-908.

am I mistaken or is that study from 1952?

I dunno about the reference there, but I'm pretty sure that study was done about 10 yrs ago by the china study guy, and it's a one-off study done on rats. Other studies have shown the opposite findings, that casein and whey protect against cancer. I would not call that convincing enough to eliminate a food group.

Stay away from vegetarianism. Seriously, eat meat. You're not cool and nobody cares.

Apparently you do - because you just mentioned it

I didn't do anything to you! :sad:

Stay away from the food police!

Seriously, I'm watching sodium, that's a big one.
