Health Drinks: Milk or Juice?

hi there modstar! another nice and interesting topic, as always =) in my case, i think i like juice better. i blame it on my lactose intolerance (but strangely, i wasn't intolerant when i was a kid), and those silly TV commercials and websites that say "piglets drink milk from the mother pig. kittens drink milk from the mother cat. but human babies... they drink milk from a mother cow?". it made me think about why humans would drink milk of another animal. but probably you will catch me drinking soy milk or rice milk. hehehe. but i still like juice better. juice has more vitamins, especially now that i'm still down with the flu. waaah. had a nasty fever from saturday til tuesday. and from wednesday, it turned into flu. waaaah. hehe. that's why i need to drink juice again later. =P thanks for reading this response and happy mylotting! =)

Just like my teacher used to say, "MILK is a complete food!". Right, I'll go for juice. Yep, I'll go for juice. Depends on the juice. If it's just one spoon of powdered Eight o' clock or Tang to a liter of water plus loads of ice which melts later, then, definitely that's not nutritious. The healthiest juices are those freshly extracted from vegetables and fruits and drunk right after juicing.

This is a good question even though you have elaborated the topic much and i need to say you that both are good only but you cant take much of milk per day since it rockets yyour weight to a high but whereas you can have fruit juices which are low in calcium for en number of times per day as they do not increase your weight and they give you the power as having a full meals and your weight does not increase that much... Happy Mylotting

Earlier I was very fond of milk with some flavor added to it. But when I suffered from fissure I learned that milk is not good for constipation problem. I was advised juice and it really helped me. Surprisingly, I have come to like juice which I did not like earlier.

Hello modstar! I would prefer juice. I rarely drink milk is just that I don't like the taste actually. At home, we never missed juice everyday. I know that it has a lot of vitamin c so even if I rarely drink milk, I still have some vitamins in me.

i pick juice cause we drink milk daily but we different kinda juices ........... i love pineapple an d grape .......they are the best

i am not much of a milk drinker so i guess i will go with the juice. any kind of freshly squeeze juice drink i can drink that. i drink milk too but not on a regular basis. i even buy chocolate flavored milk drinks for i really cant drink milk. i dont know why but i just cant drink milk everyday. i eat food high in calcium. thats where i get my calcium that my body needs.

Really the truth my friend modstar I don't like milk, but my fiancee insist that I take milk especially when I am not feeling to well, but I take a lot of juice, I like the flavor of pineapple juice,grapes, and manggo. How about you my friend what juice flavor do you really like? Have a nice day to you!

I am fond of both. But usually I drink more of the juice as compared with milk. Usually the juice is part of my meal. The milk is taken rarely now since I do take in food rich in calcium instead of taking in milk. Sometimes I just mix milk with chocolate to add flavor to the drink.

I like milk, and used to drink fresh and chocolate milk. I don't know why, but I started getting stomach upsets from milk (they said it's lactose-intolerance), so I switch to fruit juices instead.

I'm not really sure what your question is. Are you are asking which to drink? My answer would be, Why not both? Either one would be better for you than those flavored waters that are so popular now. Besides, while I love fruit or vegetable juices, chocolate tastes MUCH better in milk!

Hello modstar yes I agree milk and juice are two natural health drinks which can supplement the body with much needed nutrients..Mikl is very good for children but in older people milk intake has to be checked because it is a great source of cholestrol and calcium.I think you should also mention water since drinking of atleast 8 glasses a day is recommended by doctors and dietitians alike to cleanse the body and to keep the skin free of blemishes......

I drink milk and juice, though I dont really like milk but because of its very important role in our body I always forced myself to drink atleast two glasses a day because it is the requirement to obtain enough amount of calcium, folate and other vitamins and minerals. I also drink juice everyday, especially during lunch and dinner to have an easy digestion. For milk I choose a brand with high in calcium.

i prefer juice. it suits my taste! especially when its ice-cold! but when i'm on a diet, juice is high in sugar so i try to limit my juice intake. rather have water instead. =)

honestly I don't really drink either. I usually drink water tea or coffee. I will sometimes have veggie juice or fruit juice and the very rare time I will have milk. But you are right they are good for you and I should have more.

its depends on juice that you've telling at. there is bottled or in can juice drink... and blended one... so which type of juice drink?... anyway... my answer is milk... cuz it is rich in calcium that keeps our bones strong unlike juice drink you can have vitamin c in some vegetables and fruits...

Well, I drink milk and I eat fruit. But I drink coffee way more then anyting. But if I have to pick one then it would be milk over juice. Milk does the body good as the adds put it. Have a good day your friend onlydia

I do not drink milk, I drink only juice. Mainly apple juice and some grape juice. I do not like the taste of milk and have not liked since I was a child. I think that milk looks like a healthy drink but I just do not have a taste for it. If I try to drink it, it makes me sick.

hi friends i love both of them.i love milk with any milk drinks,especially with any sort of health drinks.and milk is rich in vitaminD and provides strenghts to the bones.i really love fruit juices.mostly i love orange juice as it is rich in vitamin C AND improves the immunity. bye!!!!!!!!!!!

health drinks they are both rich in vitamins,.. sometimes doctor said that or those person who are conscious in their health,..
