Milk is often touted as an elixir for bone strength, but new research suggests that those superpowers may be true only to a certain extent.

A study published in the Oct. 28 issue of The British Medical Journal suggests that consuming three glasses of milk per day may double women’s risk of dying in 20 years, compared to drinking less than one glass daily, Medical News Today reported.

Researchers in Sweden found that the sugar D-galactose—which comprises half of lactose—increases oxidative stress and inflammation of the body. Experimental evidence in various animal species shows that chronic exposure to galactose can expedite aging and decrease lifespan. …

He is a chiropractor who was sent to jail for posing as a medical doctor and for prescribing dangerous substances.

Next thing you'll be telling me is that Algonquin J. Calhoun, Esq. has been disbarred. Please, no more bad news today!

Great science requires duplication by other researchers. Unfortunately, my lab rats bit the dust after the first dose of jalapeños.

I'll try again with larger lab animals like chimps. After all, as your case proves, if something doesn't kill you, it will make you stronger.

BTW, one "L" in "intolerance, dammit. How can I forward your work to the Nobel Committee with these glaring errors? OTOH, I guess if they gave one to Gore and one to Obama .......

I always considered milk a children's drink. I know some adults drink it but not sure how healthy it is for them. Beer or hard cider is definitely better health-wise.

Not that dairy is all bad. Cheese, yogurt, and cream are good products made from milk that provide health benefits for adults.

Milk and dairy, tree collards, sesame seeds etc. There are many sources of calcium in food, and I agree that they are better than supplements/ground shells.

Yeah, I think that different diets work with different physiologies, but that blood type isn’t the key. (I very much need a (s)low carb diet, but don’t have the blood type for that according to the theory.)

I hope you get enough calcium from them. It would be great if you can.

Well, I do try the veggie way now and then, but I confess that I still love milk and cheese. My problem is that when I drink milk or eat cheese, my calcium levels get high.

We have hard water, so I am thinking that we may get extra calcium from that. Anyway, if I eat veggies high in calcium, then I skip milk and vice versa.
