Well after reading through these forums, i find alot of posts saying to stay away from milk but i was wondering why this is?
as i see it here are the pros and cons
Pros-
High in vitamins and minerals-
it contains high levels of iodine, vitamin d and ofcourse calcium which, besides dairy products, isnt contained at very high levels in other foods.
High in quality protien-
Whey and casien
Contains bioactive goodies-
Lactoferrin for example
Cons-
Apparently high in AGE's-
Considering most ways of preparing meat or even vegetables exposes these foods to much longer periods of heat than the pasturization process then surely it cant be too bad? Also isnt whey protien powder subjected to a level of pasturization?
Contains IGF-1-
ASAIK isnt it only associated with decreased longevity?
Unless im missing something completly obvious, surely there isnt much reason to completly cut it out?
