milk - do we really need it?

[joggerjayne]

If you couldn't get any milk ... what would you REALLY miss ?

I prefer coffee with milk, but I could manage without, or drink green tea.

Apart from that, I could live without milk.

young children?

[ChuckFickens]

What about them?

I only have milk in tea , but have you tried cornflakes with
orange juice , and weetabix with warm water and sultanas

[sara3]

I think the calcium is more important for the older deary women.

and no, I don't mean me!

[sara3]

theonlyone, sorry but that just sounds horrid!

[benny3008]

Nah, i dont do weetabix with water, sultanas sounds like a gd idea though.

I;m going to be really boring here, but there is now evidence that suggests that those who live on a vegan diet are far less likely to suffer from osteoporosis. The reason is that despite milk and other diary products being rich in easily absorbable calcium, the acid content of those products may actually leech more calcium from your bones that they actually provide. Ok, I'll shut up now :-)

oh, is nothing sacred? lol!

I don't buy 'regular' milk so I'd never miss it. I hate milk!
