Honestly, it would not surprise me in the least. Seems like everything now has added "beneficial to health" ingredients in it. Beneficial to who's health?! =/ It is a shame really.

See, 75%-80% of all humans on this planet CAN NOT process milk proteins, yet they call it "Lactose intolerance" as if being able to process it was the norm.

There is not a single animal on this planet which would ever drink the milk of another species.

Milk is poison, pumped full with growth hormones and antibiotics. That alone should keep you from drinking it.

I drink a gallon of milk in 2 days. I love milk and I'm super healthy.

I love milk, YUM

put a little coco in it and its double YUM YUM!

Its funny how almost everything we eat has something added to it. Look on the packaging and theres stuff on there that we don't even know why its there and what it does. But the annoying part is that we don't get a choice in the matter. They just dump it in and put it on the shelf and thats that. We are supposed to accept it

We absolutely get a choice. My wife and I buy real food from local suppliers (dairies, farms, ranches, etc) and we grow some of our own veggies and fruits and we frequent our local farmer's markets weekly. We're not organic eggheads or into any agenda, we simply like eating local and fresh. Do I enjoy a meal of totally processed junk food and fast food on occasion? You bet your ass. About 90% of the time though we eat real food though (i.e. - non-processed and never with ingredients that my grandmother or 4 year old daughter wouldn't be able to pronounce).

The medical school I attend has a teaching kitchen where we show people how to eat local, eat fresh, cook their own meals and get rid of preservatives and fast food. AND we show them how to do it cheaper than what they're spending on unhealthy food currently. Just takes a little common sense, planing and education (like most things).

I drink only Organic Fat-Free Skim Milk from grass-fed happy, healthy cows. I don't have any of those problems. Milk is one of the ways our species has extended our longevity.

Tell that to my cats, they go crazy when I take out the milk!!

I have a tall glass of milk before bed every day and am not sick in any way!

That is quite a funny statement. It is made with a large dose of hyperbole, some cynicism and a whole lot of "take that" but it makes no sense. Animals MIGHT drink the milk of another if they could store it - they can't. Animals DO drink the milk of another if they need, one can see animals who have lost a mother suckling another mother of a different species. You could say animals almost never drink mom's milk after reaching the weening stage, but then again humans don't really either. You can say the Cow is a domesticated, even engineered animal, that was created to provide food and milk, not just food, and 150 years ago the animal's products were pure and just fine for most.

When speaking of milk, folks need to refer to Raw, unadulterated milk, versus processed milk. The two are entirely different products, with one having some benefit to some people, the other have little benefit to most people as the lactose protein issue is most often the case with processed. And while it is wonderful to make blanket statements that condemn anyone and anything, one should always understand that in many cases one mans miracle is another poison.

As for the tryptophan issue. The 5-htp is actually needed for mood balance, hormone stabilization and whole bunch of other things, so having it in some milk products is not the same as having fluoride in the water, soda, packaged soup, pasta, juice, all prepackaged foods made with water, rinsed vegies, and of course baths and showers. Nearly all fake sugar products dumb down, as do a great many food products themselves - bread may, corn probably does, hydrogenated oils probable do, and just about all fast food does.

One thing I've noticed over the years is that when little kids get deep, dark circles under their eyes, their demeanor gets really UNUSUALLY cranky and oversensitive and whiny (noticeably so) and they start having loads of sinus, breathing, and/or asthma problems, that if I can get the moms to stop giving the kid cow milk all the time and switch over to soy or rice milk, the kid undergoes a complete, 100% reversal of all those symptoms.

I've witnessed this since about 1990 when I first started paying attention to it.

Also, I used to get very bad bronchitis about twice a year, and when I stopped drinking milk then I never got bronchitis again. Been some 23 years now.

I don't recommend that people drink soy, though, generally, because of all the problems with it (hormonal imbalances from the excess estrogen being the worst aspect) but in one of those severe cases where mom is a "skeptic" and doesn't know what rice milk is, sometimes a switch to soy is all she'll be willing to try with her kid. And even that switch reduces all the symptoms these kids have with the chronic black undereye circles, being bizarrely whiny, being excessively tired all the time from not sleeping well, and sinus/breathing issues.

It's not the milk. It's the source of the milk.

Store bought homogenized, pasturized, hormone fed and antibiotic shot-up milk is garbage food.

On the other hand, raw milk staright from the farm... now THAT'S milk!!

It still has all the enzymes in it so it is easily digested. I started drinking it about 6 years ago and never looked back. I drive 25 miles to the farm, buy 4-6 gallons, put one in the fridge and freeze the rest.

Noms.

Oh, I dunno. I find most any mammal will go for milk if it can get some. We've got fingers and cows. It's all that's stopping the cats.
