Milk, Does It Really do the Body Good?

So many folks don't understand if milk is good, or bad.  Here is the lowdown.  According to the Harvard School of Public Health, "Cow" Milk does have certain nutrients that are good for the body, i.e.: Calcium, Potassium, and Vitamin D.  What has been debunked, is the idea that it increases bone health.  Fracture rates have yet to be proven with any significant difference between milk drinkers in the U.S., to studies shown in some Asian countries where there is no milk consumption within most households.  It gets better!  The cons of milk: high caloric intake, and studies also show increased cow milk drinkers to have a higher risk for prostate cancer in men, as well as ovarian cancer in women! YIKES!  Almond Milk is a much healthier option.  It has the same if not higher nutritional value to that of milk for Calcium, Potassium, and Vitamin D.  Almond Milk also has nutritional value that Cow Milk does not offer, Vitamin E, Zinc, as well as higher levels of magnesium and potassium.  Almond Milk is Lactose, Gluten, and cholesterol free as well.  The high level of antioxidants decrease the risks of the associated cancers found in milk, as well as giving you an anti-aging value.  #foodforthought
