And it doesn't have to. The fact is we still drink it and depend on it for calcium, the fact is that it seems to have never have replaced anything else in the realm of calcium, meaning it was our main choice of calcium.
And so it doesn't even matter to you that only people of European descent even have the ability to drink milk? The rest of the world can't physically do it. Their body cannot digest it after they are babies.
You're just using milk as an excuse to believe your beliefs. It doesn't hold water once it is critiqued.
Granted a lot of people don't drink milk but I'll bet they still eat the processed cheese that comes from it which by the way ranks the highest on the calcium list. Perhaps they eat products that have calcium from milk in them.
I don't need to prove anything, its in the stores today being sold is pretty damn good proof to me.
Happy is trying to tell me that the reason we started to drink milk was an alternative to tainted water. So in other words it just so happens to be a coincidence that it ranks high on the calcium list that we happen to be lacking in. I don't buy it.
Dude, you are high, I never said that, please show me the page where I said that. And learn english your gibberish is showing again.
You was asked to explain by me if you are correct how do cows that only eat grass produce full fat milk. Your answer was I believe they drink milk.
Going to ignore the rest of your dishonest post as you have had described to you in great detail and have been supplied many links to back up all that info that show you are wrong.

Back in the old days they ate a lot of wild game and cows that were lean. If the body is working properly it processes fats to energy. Beef has two of the needed saturated fats but butter has one that meat doesn't have much of.
The other saturated fat comes from tropical fruit like coconut which they didn't have in Europe. I'm trying to find the local source of this type of fat but still need to research it. To utilize Saturated fats for energy it appears that there has to be a proportion that needs consideration. I've got much research in this area yet.

You know whats funny Happy, is you shifted the excuse of us using milk to poor water issues, which again leads me to believe in the same point I was trying to make all along.
Why is it that no one else seems to see how obvious it is, if we don't have water here to drink, it possible this isn't our home. You never hear about other species on this planet suffering from poor water conditions, or not being able to find water to drink.
Our needs with water go beyond just having water available and this is the problem. The water on this planet doens't suit us, as is. It still needs to be filtered and processed for safe drinking. You never hear about other species having problems with unsafe water. I guess you never stopped to wonder why.
Either way Happy, your still making my point.

I'm allergic to milk. Since I burnt my box I had to come up with alternatives so chose the best source of calcium I could find. I make soup out of soup bones every week. I boil the bones for hours and I get all the calcium I need. I still haven't worked out a suitable antidote for PG yet, the calcium needs to be present in the intestines at the time. Same thing applies to Oxalates, if the veggi has calcium levels that are adequate they aren't toxic. Spinach needs milk.
In comparison to what?
The large majority on this planet didn't until very recently. The reason it's a popular source of calcium is that it's so readily available,
Which aside from sardines don't measure up to our needs according to the chart I have listed many times on calcium needs.
that's all. As mentioned earlier, there's tons of other sources of calcium,
My assertions sticks, no one is still able to provide reason why we ever turned to milk to begin with. Happy says it was a water substitute. I don't buy it and want to see that source. In addition no one is ever able to produce what it is that milk supposedly replaced, and why.
In short, your assertion that a % of humans drinking milk is somehow proof that humans "don't fit in" is beyond laughable.

Oh dear Happy as I thought this dud has leapt on the water thing showing we are not from here but ignored the explanation of why as per ususal.
What a complete and utter rear end this guy is.
You know full well that was what you were asked and the answer you gave. You go search it out as I have already told you. I don’t jump through hoops for you.

In comparison to what? We have nothing by comparison.
Which aside from sardines don't measure up to our needs according to the chart I have listed many times on calcium needs. Something else that seems to have been missed several times that I have posted it is that our need for calcium actually goes up with age.
My assertions sticks, no one is still able to provide reason why we ever turned to milk to begin with. Happy says it was a water substitute. I don't buy it and want to see that source. In addition no one is ever able to produce what it is that milk supposedly replaced, and why. The fact is we use milk for its calcium, always have, always will, granted not everyone drinks it but most people do eat cheese, or some other diary products like butter, or sour cream. I would say that groups percentage is probably pretty high.

The water was bad in places for a long time. The English used tea to purify their water and a lot of Europeans used alcohols in the past
