Read this fantastic article link above - perhaps the BEST quote I can include in this post is by my favorite and most trusted source, Dr. Neal Barnhard:
“Sugar — in the form of lactose — contributes about 55 percent of skim milk’s calories, giving it ounce for ounce the same calorie load as soda.” ~ Neal Barnard, president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine
Another great factoid from the article:
[Osteoporosis? You don’t need milk, or large amounts of calcium, for bone integrity. In fact, the rate of fractures is highest in milk-drinking countries, and it turns out that the keys to bone strength are lifelong exercise and vitamin D, which you can get from sunshine.]
Read this great article! Great Info!
