Except it's not a parody.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

it's very clever though. Love it.

yeah, that bit was funnier in the SNL Drug Olympics sketch with Phil Hartman... where he clean-and-jerks his arms off as a doped up weight lifter.

And as a biologist, I happen to be privey to information that lactated secretions from other large mammals is not exactly a panacea to help promote bone health... in fact the evidence is fairly scant that milk after early childhood leads to even small improvement in bone growth and maintenance.

So in a sense, the kids are actually right. They could just eat healthy, have a small multi-vitamin, get some excercise outside in the sun, and leave milk to the babies if they don't like it. And I say this as someone who just enjoys truth in advertising... I have a gallon of whole milk in my fridge.

Yeah, I'm with you Bamdrew. I remember a while back Suzanne Summers, of all people, put out a book that dealt with the evils of milk. And the arguement was, why would we drink something that's meant to help baby cows double their size in a few months.

Cow's milk is for cows. Human milk is for humans. I have to admit though, the cows milk goes better in my coffee. I've tried both.

thanks for grossing us all out, dag.

... re-reading my statement, maybe I should note that if you like milk (and I do too) it does have vitamin D and A and some Calcium, so its better than drinking a soda. But if you don't like it (my girlfriend is mildly lactose intolerant) then whatever... you're not going to have a higher rate of bone breaking osteoporosis when you're 65. Heredity, followed closely by exercise, makes the biggest difference in bone health, but whatever.

Recommended Calcium Intake
Age / Calcium (mg/day)
0 to 6 months: 210
7 to 12 months: 270
1 to 3 years: 500
4 to 8 years: 800
9 to 13 years: 1300
14 to 18 years: 1000
19 to 50 years: 1000
51+ years: 1200

1000 mg/day is a lot. interesting ups and downs with puberty and older age.

especially with the bovine growth hormone in milk these days

gotta ask ourselves why the governments of european countries and canada don't allow it in their milk supply

You shouldn't drink that stuff, anyway.
Why? What's wrong with it?
- It's not in sync with evolution. - Shut up.
Cows have only been domesticated in the last years.
Before, they were running around mad as lorries.
The human digestive system hasn't got used to any dairy products yet.
