Do you think the Almond Board or Walnut Board is going to pay to study milk... Companies pay to test their product. It is that simple. Research takes money and independent funding is not readily available. You are essentially calling all PhDs frauds by discounting their research because they received a grant from the Dairy Council.<br /><br />You are correct that you can get the amino acids and carbohydrates from other sources, but not as easily. It takes more planning, which the majority of our country is terrible at doing. If you find a good balance of Essential amino acids and carbohydrates that you are willing to consume after a workout, go for it. Milk is definitely one of the easiest ways to do that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8034529155352563520.post-74026526707430642042012-05-23T11:57:15.391-07:002012-05-23T11:57:15.391-07:00You are an idiot...that is allYou are an idiot...that is allAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8034529155352563520.post-9102438744934327032012-05-19T04:17:03.344-07:002012-05-19T04:17:03.344-07:00Lindsay, with all due respect, you should absolute...Lindsay, with all due respect, you should absolutely "think about it".

That being said, pushing cow's milk to humans has always been weird to me. Cow's milk is meant for baby cows. I've heard that worldwide, the more adults are lactose intolerant than not. That adults who can stomach cow's milk are the anomaly, and their bodies have changed to tolerate cow's milk.

I don't drink much of it, buy it maybe every other week, or not even that often, and when I do drink it is not really because I believe I need it to supplement my diet, but rather because I just like it. I grew up on raw milk (and lived to tell the tale).<br /><br />I also don't believe in drinking, almond, oat or whatever other milks industry pushes on us. Sorry, I'll just munch of almonds if I need their goodness. But that is just me, liking things they way they grow.<br /><br />Thank you for this post. Good info.
