Canada says that Milk is unhealthy!

[ThoD]

i rather get milk from the cow and boil it, and then get cocoa to make my own chocolate

I like making my own choco too, it's fun and if you work it well, it can turn out much better than bought choco

 

[TotalInsanity4]

Chocolate milk IS bad for you if it's prepackaged. If you get milk and add the cocoa or choco, then it's fine, but prepackaged choco milk is literally "expired" milk sent back from stores, then they add choco to make it last longer and repackage as choco milk.

I work in the dairy department of HyVee and I have to say that whoever told you that is feeding you fresh hot garbage. If milk is damaged or expired, we have to dump it down the drain before scanning it out as damaged stock

Not expired exactly, reason I put it with the " ", just close to expiration (eg: for milk that lasts a month or so, about a week before it expires). At least that's what they do here and in most of Europe.

That's not the case here, we don't even send milk back to the distributor if it's bad. Just the containers, for proof

And soda (esp. diet soda) is worse for you still as the CO2 prevents the absorption of calcium, pick your poison.

The diet in diet soda probably stands for diabetes since no one's gonna drink it as a diet

DIabETes Coke

Plus the sugars eat away at your teeth

 

[JellyPerson]

There is no sugar is Diet coke but there is a lot of acid

So yeah, I mean water is good, but I think the milk being bad thing is somewhat overblown.

Artificial sweeteners aren't that great for ya.

You're kinda close, it's because it has artificial sweeteners in it so that diabetics can drink it without it messing up their blood sugar and killing them

 

[JellyPerson]

Exactly, and it tastes like shit too imo

 

[gnmmarechal]

This flat earth is only 6000 years old bruh.

Flat? It's clearly a slightly bent cylinder! Burn this heretic!

 

[JellyPerson]

Obviously the moon is a projection by NASA to make us believe in a capitalist, and climate change is something invented by Al Gore so he can rule the world

 

[DeslotlCL]

What a big deal some people make about milk or other kind of stuff...

Did you know that even drinking too much water can kill you? Yes, drinking water can kill you! smh, enjoy what you have always eat, just keep it balanced and you will be fine.

Milk is unhealthy! That's what Canada's government claims. The country is currently working on its dietary guidelines. In the future, citizens should therefore largely refrain from using products such as milk, butter and cream. And the new food pyramid looks pretty vegan. So many vegetables, fruits, whole grains and vegetable protein, instead of animal protein in the most important place. Also unsaturated rather than saturated fatty acids should preferably be on the daily nutritional plan.

What do you think of Milk? Is it bad or good?

raw milk != pasteurized milk

And milk is for getting fat, not for being slim. That is why it is produced by any animal. So it's got loads of calories and fat and whatnot. Not "bad", but not something you're suppose to be drinking loads of. It does have good stuff, like calcium and whatnot, but you just have to keep in mind it's got loads of calories and other things to fatten you up.

*Reads thread while drinking whole milk* I mean, there's so many studies, often conflicting, people should just be responsible and use their best judgment.

 

[Slartibartfast42]

You are still comparing fats/proteins to SUGAR, the body cant do anything with that.

edit: refined sugar before any one starts on the natural sugars.

The differences in healthniess between fat and sugar and whatnot is a secondary concern. It's a thin person concern. Someone who is 100 pounds overweight is primarily concerned with total calories for weight loss first. Only after that, do they care about the differences. I also did not mean to imply that you should drink soda instead of milk. I meant that if you think soda has too many calories for you right now, then so does milk. You have to sacrifice something. If you want to keep drinking milk, then you have to give up some other food. I'd prefer as much food as possible and to get rid of calories in drinks. I mean to drink water and iced tea. You should get your vitamins, proteins, and good fats in food form, not milk.

No it's not fine. If you are supposed to eat an 800 calorie lunch, and your mac and cheese is 600 calories, you should not have a 400 calorie of chocolate milk with it. That's 200 calories over budget.

Fair enough but that’s not how you came across, the whole calorie argument should really be for another thread.
