Got Milk?
Milk's good for ya! Considering Harbaugh's well-known fondness for milk, this community might be interested in a little science, that milk "diminishes the risk of metabolic disease."
That info is from an article about the risks of excessive sugar, "The Sharp Bite of a Sweet Tooth," by Jane Brody in the New York Times on July 23, online: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/22/well/eat/the-downside-of-having-a-sw…
Of course sugar itself is not dangerous. HOWEVER, the extra loads of sugar that companies have dumped in our food over the past 50-60 years IS a danger.
Whole or 2%? Coach wants to know.
Please refer to this graphic which clearly shows 2% should only be used in emergency situations.
Agreed, on emergencies (to be perfectly honest, that makes it an emergency every day in my house), but the question is, do you get the same metabolic benefits or better from whole milk as compared to 2%, and Candy-Ass?
I myself cannot answer that question for you. However, because this milk graphic was surly put together using indisputable, empirical scientific evidence, I would have to assume that 2% is only used in emergencies because it doesn't contain all the benefits of whole milk. As for the candy-ass shit. You might as well just ass some white food coloring to your water. At least you'll get the benefits of drinking water.
wussies: real wolverines get their milk right from the cow. Step into my (milking) parlor....
I use heavy whipping cream. zero carbs
Same, good for keto. Half and half is almost as good and froths better for espresso drinks.
Agreed, my coffee has never tasted better, and it compliments my no sugar, high fat diet.
Is it football season yet?
They really don't get much better when the season starts.
Imagine this OP with a dose of "UNACCEPTABLE" and then you have an in-season post.
It's almond & oat milk for me
almond for me the few times I have milk
Almond or soy for me.
Little known fact: the ability to tolerate milk is actually the result of a genetic mutation from a few thousand years ago. Lactose intolerance is actually natural to humans.
It's a white guy (and gal) thing due to something about less sunlight and metabolizing vitamin D.
I want to know how they find the udders on almonds. They must be very tiny.
Faulker milked a cat.... they have tiny little teats, he said.
Nut milks aren't milk (nor are oat or soy milk). Milk only comes from mammary glands of mammals. If we're being accurate, it should be called "nut water" or "nut-based milk alternative". It's called "milk" to market it as a milk substitute for those than can't have milk due to diet or religious reasons. It doesn't have the same protein or amino acid content of milk.
Almond milk, for example, is a manufactured almond product. It's made from grinding up almonds with water then finely straining to remove the residual solids. Then additives (like carrageenan) are added to increase viscosity and mouthfeel (to simulate milk). Plus sugars or other sweeteners. Similar process for oat or soy.
tldr: Not milk! Harbaugh would not approve!
I'm not lactose intolerant but and milk and soy protein intolerant. I get strep throat conditions for like two weeks if I have too much milk or soy protein. It really sucks. I spent 6-12 weeks sick every year until I was 40 and my sister found my condition on the internet. I knew about milk but not soy.
I drink almond/oat/coconut milk as a milk substitute. People complaining that a milk substitute should be something else because they think it effects sales are thinking it through. I'd still drink "nut splooge" as a milk substitute if it was called something else because I can't drink milk.
I’m drinking an almond milk from Costco...pretty tasty and 1/3 the calories.
JFC. How many days till we can bitch about not covering in the MTSU game?

There appears to be 29, sir.
Carbs are the enemy!
For every favorable article citing the healthy things about milk, there is an equal amount of articles citing the unhealthy things about milk.
For instance, adding dairy to your diet can help you lose weight, but drinking loads of milk makes it more likely you will die soon.
Yep. Lactaid for the MGospouse.
Remember, SUGAR does not cause Diabeetus!
Don't give me that candy-ass whole milk crap. It's cream or nothing.
Well, Don, with our success with CRISPR gene editing, maybe we can reconfigure milk producers to provide pure cream.
Tried raw milk a while back. Not too bad
Hate to break it to you but milk has a ton of sugar in it.
And not sure if the article addresses it because some people, like the OP, feel the need to link to articles behind subscriptions
Fairlife has alot less sugar and no lactose.
Mmmm...
If milk is so freaking great for you, how come so many people have GI issues from milk and milk products so early in life? I attribute Harbaugh's quirkyness to a lifetime of milk drinking.
Hungry for apples?
Cuz it's cute...
As I recall, a fair number of cats are in fact lactose intolerant, so there may be some serious gas from that kitten later.

Got Milk Bar?

I try not to drink milk actually. Studies say that it's better not to consume lactose for adults. But I can't help drinking coffee with it. Moreover, recently I got hold of a new grinder Baratza Virtuoso+ and now I make 3-4 cups of coffee a day. Hopefully, milk I use doesn't affect negatively on my health given that I don't drink too much of it.
