The Myth Of Milk?

[Hi-Dro]

milk is good for training and building muscle FTW

As far as milk building strong bone is a complete lie. Calcium is a metal that is the main building blocks of your bones. Calcium cannot be absorbed with the precense of protein. Milk is full of whey and casseine protein. Do a little bit of research and come to your own conclusion.

I do despise people who spew "science" without posting links to sources (that aren't wikipedia)

I dunno but I've been drinking soya milk for years.

There, I did the work for you.

Dietary protein content is thought to affect urinary calcium excretion. University of Connecticut's Jane Kersetter has led several studies in this area. An early study determined that for every 50 g of dietary protein consumed, 60 mg of calcium is excreted. Protein-induced hypercalciuria is thought to be partly due to an increased glomerular filtration rate and decreased renal calcium reabsorption. In another study, Kerstetter et al. reported that a low-protein diet leads to hypocalciuria and profound secondary hyperparathyroidism in young women. The jury is still out in regard to whether intestinal calcium absorption is affected by dietary protein. In a recent study, Kerstetter et al. sought to explore the etiology of low-protein induced secondary hyperparathyroidism and to further define the effect of dietary protein on intestinal calcium absorption in young women.

that's great. So by bolding those words, are you maintaining a nuetral stand point? Noticing that they are exploring the relationship with calcium absorption in young women. What I want to see is more studies for men. I am just as curious as you.

I genuinely have no specific knowledge on this subject, now do I claim to. But if logic tells me something sounds suspect the most pessimistic findings are usually the most accurate. The correlation is probably not complete coincidence. But much can be said for what scientists have 'proven' by reading their actual results

Iluvboxing has convinced me in this thread. I'm gonna cut out dairy products for a period and note the changes.
