Many of you reading this do not drink Milk and for good reason. Youβve been told many tales that Milk is not what it seems and you should drink substitutes of Milk instead (Click Here).
So this is really about debunking the myths that surround Milk and to get you Di1βs drinking Milk once againβ¦ Of course if youβre lactose intolerant you cannot, but you can also share this with a family member or a friend! Β
Here are three of those myths that come up the mostβ¦
Milk Provides No Health Benefits
Really now? Β I refuse to believe any Di1 would believe this to be true! So if you do you must be new around here.. Hello and let me put you straight.
Just one cup of Milk provides 9 essential nutrients including Protein, Phosphorus and Calcium along with Vitamins A, D, B12, Riboflavin, Niacin & Pantothenic acid. The western dietary guidelines when looked at, say that people from the west do not consume enough Vitamin nutrients into their bodies.
Many children who drank up to three glasses of milk per day have been shown to have higher quality health than those children that did not and opted for the fizzy drinks or juices.
Consuming milk and dairy has been known to help with your bone health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, High blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes (Click Here) .
Milk Has Too Much Sugar
There seems to be a confusion between natural Sugar and table Sugar (AKA added sugar). Natural Sugar is found in real food such as fruit and milk which in fact has a ton of healthy nutrients that our body needs to be healthy and optimal.
Whereas added Sugar is added to food in order to try and enhance the flavour. When you decide to start adding sugar, it starts to mess up Β the important nutrients that your body needs. So think Fizzy drinks, Cakes, Biscuits, Candy and other such trash.
This is the Sugar you should be getting worked up about and getting rid of from your daily consumption of eating and drinking, Β not the natural Sugar.
Chocolate Milk Is Not Healthy
If Chocolate was single, Iβd agree with you but you put it in a relationship with Milk and itβs Β a healthy combo! The reason for this is the Chocolate Milk still provides the same nine essential nutrients found in the ordinary white milk.
The only difference is the addition of the Chocolate of course which then increases the carbohydrate content in the form (Itβs now sweeter than white Milk) and hence, the calorie content will be higher too.
This does not mean Chocolate milk is bad for you, Itβs a healthy addition to anyoneβs body, but of course do not think you can just keep drinking it like some of you drink your Teas and Coffees.. Too much Chocolate Milk is no good for anyone, no more than 3 glasses per day.
If you have a child and youβre still Β worried or hesitant about giving it to them but your child is still drinking Fizzy drinks (Click Here)Β and Juices (Click Here) and God forbid Alcohol.. Iβd refocus my priories on that. Something that could actually save your childβs life, rather than eliminating something that could preserve it.
Lastly, Chocolate Milk has been shown to be very effective for recovery for Athletes who take part In intense exercises or partake in particular sports. It provides a blend of carbohydrate and protein and this really helps with the repair and recovery of their muscles.
THATβS IT!
I really enjoyed sharing this with you guys.Β Please do let me know thoughβ¦

I will be drinking more milk from now on.
I always thought If you can stomach it, then drink it. I’m lactose so I don’t drink it.
I’ve set myself the goal of drinking 2-3 glasses during the day for the next 30 days,
just to see how I feel afterwards. Do you think that’s a good idea ?
It sounds like a plan Dave.. go for it!
Can’t drinking a load of milk make you gain muscles?
No only gain weight via drinking the whole bottle.. muscles come from exercise and food and great sleep π
I will be drinking Milk but only Skim I feel sick
when I drink the full one.
Ok nothing wrong with that Abraham π
I use to only have milk in my cereal, even then though it was not often.
Now I’ve decided to start drinking more thanks to this article π
You’re Welcome Virginia.. thank you for letting us know this π
I used to read health articles about how milk is bad for you, so I’m happy I saw this
because it’s showing it from another side which you cannot really find anywhere else
on the net.
I thought this made a lot of sense and broke down my resistance to not drinking any milk
to starting to introduce it to my daily routine.
Aha nice Rebekah π
Yes I will start drinking it again! I found what you said to really hit home in my head.
Aha I’m really happy to know that Stefan.. thank you for letting us know π
