Enjoy your source, or shut the fuck up.

I also forgot to add stupidity to the list.

seems legit and peer-reviewed

There's so much crap that is bad for you.

I should make a post of everything that gives you cancer that you might use daily.

Oh by the way about half of the cancer causing products in
Johnson’s Baby Shampoo has been removed! So ya you all dead because this only changed last year.

I'm confused, are people saying that cow's milk is unhealthy period or that it's insufficient for infants? Because that's what the articles seem to be focused on.

If it's the latter then what is there to argue about? We've known that shit forever.

Also what was this thread about?

[kuronosan]

Yes, because when the burden of proof is on my shoulders I make everyone else do the work.

I suppose when you get asked for references you tell people to go look in a phone book too?

By the way, before you start citing stupidity as a problem, you probably don't want to copypaste shit that isn't an original idea. It makes you look, you know, stupid.

Medical Experts are now starting to agree with what alternative health practitioners have advocated for decades now. That cows milk is actually very unhealthy for us and can potentially cause iron deficiency, anemia, allergies, diarrhea, heart disease, colic, cramps, gastrointestinal bleeding, sinusitis, skin rashes, acne, increased frequency of colds and flus, arthritis, diabetes, ear infections, osteoporosis, asthma, autoimmune diseases, and more, possibly even lung cancer, multiple sclerosis and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Not so great news for those who love dairy products.

And yet...

The study did not find any association between overall milk or dairy product intake and ovarian cancer.

The association appears to be with calcium itself, rather than with dairy products in general: A more recent analysis of the Harvard study participants found that men with the highest calcium intake...

Your studies don't seem to support your hypothesis very well, because the problem lies not within the milk but within the type of calcium it contains. You see, certain calcium compounds do indeed inhibit the uptake of Iron by the intestines. These compounds can be found in just about anything.

Your analysis is further hampered by this statement from one of the websites found on those you linked:

At this age prolonged exclusive breast-feeding, the delayed introduction of foods, lack of meat in the diet or the over-dependence on cow's milk may bring on anemia. Adolescents, especially menstruating girls, are particularly at risk because of the growth spurts during puberty and poor eating habits. Other cause of iron deficiency include loss of blood from the intestinal tract as a result of various gastrointestinal disorders e.g. inflammatory bowel disease, milk protein allergy, celiac disease.

These issues stem from the body's inability to process the milk properly, which varies from individual to individual. This has absolutely nothing to do with the nutritional value of milk.

Now go and be a good little boy and leave your tin-foil hat at the door and next time you decide to cite google, read the fucking websites you cite.

[archibaldcrane]

Don't you know that every argument about taxation or economics comes down to milk?

[hey]

It is unhealthy, period.

[kuronosan]

It is unhealthy, period.

So is eating pizza, sugar, excessive vegetables (iron overload), breads, grains, meat, chicken, duck.

Eating too much of anything can kill you. A glass of milk once in a while won't do shit unless your body already can't process it. How hard is this to understand?

Fuck, you can die from drinking too much water. That doesn't make water unhealthy. It makes too much water unhealthy.

Armchair fucking nutritionists up in this bitch.

"Milk’s main selling point is calcium, and milk-drinking is touted for building strong bones in children and preventing osteoporosis in older persons. However, clinical research shows that dairy products have little or no benefit for bones...

Dairy products—including cheese, ice cream, milk, butter, and yogurt—contribute significant amounts of cholesterol and saturated fat to the diet...

Prostate and breast cancers have been linked to consumption of dairy products, presumably related to increases in a compound called insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I)...

Milk proteins, milk sugar, fat, and saturated fat in dairy products pose health risks for children and encourage the development of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease...

Milk and dairy products are not necessary in the diet and can, in fact, be harmful to health."

Yes, these guys are armchair nutritionists. Cow-produced milk is shit-tier and serves no purpose in human diet. Especially when we can achieve the nutrients it provides from other sources extremely easily and without the negatives.

So what you're saying is you don't eat, just take pills for everything?

[Pikarya]

from other sources

This means pills. Preferably Flintstone vitamins.

Have you ever eaten a pickle? How about a hot pepper? Have you eaten anything at all that isn't a whole grain, piece of fish, or a green leafy veggie? If you answered yes to any of those, I implore you to shut up.

And yes, just because a place has a website with lots of papers with confirmation bias doesn't make it legit.

Oh, almost forgot. Don't eat corn either. Your body lacks the enzymes to digest it.

[Ksandra]

because no matter what you eat there are side effects was my point...

[hey]

Yes, indeed. I'm not saying don't drink milk, i'm saying don't drink it because you think it's healthy. If you like it, then fuck eating healthy.

[Pikarya]

Have you ever eaten a pickle? How about a hot pepper? Have you eaten anything at all that isn't a whole grain, piece of fish, or a green leafy veggie?

I rarely, if ever eat any of those. If I need something from that group I pick the item with the least amount of cons catering to my personal diet.

Oh, almost forgot. Don't eat corn either. Your body lacks the enzymes to digest it.

Yes, I think we all understand the basic concepts of Fiber. I rarely, if ever eat corn. Probably 4-5 times a year max and servings each time under 1/2 cup intake.

[kuronosan]

Corn is Starch. Not fiber. Idiot.

Edit: self own. I deserve the humiliation.
Fiber is a carb.

[noblemountain]

Fuck that, corn is delicious. To keep this going off topic though...Monsanto is still the most evil corporation on the planet. I made a garden last year and love me some fresh corn.

[Odesseiron]

I seriously thought I clicked on the wrong thread when going through the last few pages.

[RKenshin]

The important take-away here, is never giving up on that search for ways to feel superior over other people.
