    Health Hazard - Milk?

    I'm watching all of these videos and reading papers about how corperations function and how bad some of them are. In a small section of the video "The Corperation" I saw a one sided view of how milk is basically bad. Milk can cause many types of cancers, heart complications, weakened bones, and many more problems. I think decided to be lazy and google the topic and i found a rather unprofesionnal site (www.MilkSucks.com) but they had some pretty convincing arguements as well as links to many other sources (i went to the chicago tribune link and their article supported some of the website's claims that milk is in fact bad).

    So, now that i've heard all of the downsides of milk. Is there anyone here that can educate me more on this topic? I've been drinking milk for quite some time and now i hear this.

    and one more thing. The website compares a cup of milk to a cup of beer and shows that beer is better than milk... i feel like there is some information missing because i grew up being told that beer is bad.

    Extremely one sided. It ignores the positive health benefits of milk and concentrates on the possibly negative ones.

    A) Milk is pasteurized, so this idea of diseases in it, well is greatly overblown
    B) They never consider the vitamins and nutrients such as Calcium, Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin C found in milk today

    PETA.. its PETA, or even worse. They start trying to prove a point and never consider for a moment the other side. They only mention health in passing because even if drinking a glass of milk everyday made you live to 100 it would not support there agenda.

        Reading that one could argue the same way Peta does.

        FOOD contains calories, and such can make you fat. You should never ever eat food.

          Or the Enviromental Elves, e gad those guys are extremists, they burn down places

          Also theres a place where the average life expectancy is highest, their diet is heavy in pork. I also love those don't eat meat because its bad for the animals arguments (have nothing against not eating meat for any other reason) if it wern't for todays supplements those people would be dead from the lack of key B vitamins

              If your a lac-tard like me... yes it is! Hell I had a milk shake one day ( I was feeling suicidal and death by yum-yums seemed good ) and I spent an hour in the bath room pay for it.

                I'll start drinking beer instead of milk because the internet told me to. Awesome.

                      PETA...

                      wait no, sorry...

                      PETA...

                      I have a personal problem with them.

                      Those morons think that horse riding should be illegal and that horses should be released, they have tried to crash horse shows... we just act like uncivilized apes and fling poo (horse manure... its all natural)

                      1. Modern riding/driving horses are a man made invention they cannot survive without us.
                      2. If they were released: if you thought hitting a raccoon was bad...
                      3. They would breed like nuts! Then you would have to hunt them down.
                      4. Have you ever tried hunting a horse? I have its almost impossible. THEY ARE SMART. You cannot get within a mile of wild horses on foot.
                      5. I would be out of a JOB!

                      So I ask PETA, which is better for the horse.
                      PETA folk are narrow-minded.

                      Milk is bad

                      Sorry for the rant, PETA just really makes me PO'ed.

                        You know whats funny in some parts of the world hunting certain animals actually protects them? It's true hunting elephants for the Ivory from some country help fund a refuge and preservation for the same animal

                          we hunt whitetail dear so they dont get over populated and hit by cars.
                          we also hunt them with our cars.

                            I drink beer, and I feel fine. I drink milk, and i feel bad. Guess it's that whole intolerance thing.

                              As has been said above...disregard anything you read on that site.

                              If PETA is involved it is pure animal protecting tree hugging propaganda. If we weren't eating them or using their products some other predator would be.
