Milk is a casual drink. It has been since thousands of
years the favor making resonating propaganda of milk has been taking place. In 2011 about 108 Quarts of cow milk has been consumed on average by an American child. That, the milk is a healthy drink and a solution for all problems comes from turned out to be a myth for the following reasons;
1. It depletes calcium from your bones
2.It is custom designed for Calves
3. It increases fracture risk
The reports show that the countries which have low consumption of Dairy products have less incidence of bone fractures among their population.
4.This is an acidifying animal protein
The cow milk has a more positive potential renal acid load which ultimately saps your bones of the crucial mineral calcium of your bones.
5. Today's milk is only a processed food
The best alternative is unsweetened almond milk. If it is difficult to get the best one will be rice or soy milk. It is better to try organic soy milk moderately as there are some controversies about this also.

The milk of any mammal is developed for their children. The milk of your mother is custom designed for you. Similarly, the milk of cow is designed for calf. Cow's milk is not supposed to be made for you. That is obvious. Cow's milk contains extra proteins which humans do not require.
However, milk we have today is just artificially processed milk. In earlier times, milk used to be generated naturally. Today, the case is different.
Yes, I agree, milk is unnecessarily hyped at times. However, logic of equating milk with fractures is invalid. There are other fractures too which probably world ignores.

Are you saying that milk from cows is bad for health? And the authorities are not aware of that?
