The lies perpetuated by the dairy industry…
‘Got milk?’ is one of the biggest and long-running marketing campaigns that
has ever existed in the U.S.
The campaign has been supported by many famous personalities over the
years, the message, as they smilingly wipe the residue off their top lip, is
that this glass of milk has just provided the drinker with a healthy glass of
goodness, good for strong teeth and bones.
But the promise of milk giving you good teeth and bones is eclipsed by all
of the other bad side-effects you will get from drinking processed cows milk,
but of course, the nasty stuff is strategically left out of the adverts.
Over half of the population of the world is lactose-intolerant meaning that
for every glass of milk you drink you are probably doing your gut more harm
than good.
Milk has been so heavily promoted because it is cheap and easy to produce.
After the war it was given to most school age children due to the fact that
there was little else so widely available that had a little nutritional value.
This post-war notion that milk is ‘good’ for children has been perpetuated ever
since.
Most dairy milk has got some unwanted ingredients that you probably didn’t
realize were in there.
Milk is bleached, due to the puss and blood that come from the cow when the
milk is forcibly taken, each liter of milk is legally allowed to have a certain
amount of pus.
But less talked about is the high levels of chemicals that are found in the
milk, pumped into the cows to keep them in a constant state of milking, these
chemicals naturally make their way through the cows and into every glass of
milk you consume.
Some of the negative health implications relating to drinking milk include
and are not limited to allergies, ear infections, Type 1 diabetes, anemia and
digestive problems.
