Drinks with Drawbacks. Cow's Milk.



 A very suitable milk for calves.

Cow's milk is one of the most widely consumed drinks in Western countries[Eastern countries]. It's nutritional value is very high, as it provides 18 of the 22 most important nutrients.

However the fact that cow's milk is nutritional is not sufficient to be considered healthy. There is no question that cow's milk is recommended for calves , considering that it was designed for them. Precisely for that reason, cow's milk contains three times the proteins and four times the calcium than human maternal milk. 

Nonetheless,no matter how rich in nutrients it may be, cow's milk does not prove to be apt for humans, and it cannot be recommended as a healthy drink, not even for children and certainly not for humans. 

DRAWBACKS OF COW'S MILK

It is not easily digested by many children and adults, poorly tolerated due to its sugar content (lactose), causing allergies, low in iron. . . Increasingly, there are more studies that associate the consumption of cow's milk with cerebrovascular accidents (strokes), coronary disease, endometrial, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as osteoporosis.

Sure enough skeletal fractures are more common on people who imbibe an abundance of cow's milk, contrary to what has been stated all along; not only fractures but also cardiovascular diseases, aging and mortality in general increase in proportion to milk consumption. These drawbacks of cow's milk have been confirmed by one of the major studies carried out worldwide regarding the effect of it's consumption, published by the British Medical journal, after following up with nearly 100,000 individuals for twenty years. 

As other research has already indicated, an intake of cow's milk in adulthood does not promote mineralization of bones nor does it protect against osteoporosis; on the contrary, the more it is consumed, the greater the risk of a bone fracture.

Strong bones 

Plant based milk , particularly soy milk , do indeed promote mineralization of the skeletal system and protect against osteoporosis.

THE STORY OF AHITHOPEL IN THE BIBLE

 THE RESULT OF THE WISDOM OF ONE WHO DID NOT MAKE GOD HIS COUNSELOR.        "Ahithophel was destitute of divine enlightenment, or he could not have based the success of treason on the crime of incest. Men of corrupt hearts plot wickedness, as if there were no overruling Providence to cross their designs. "EP 536.2 What's wisdom ?  According to NWAD, wisdom is defined as ; If wisdom is to be considered as a faculty of the mind, it is the faculty of discerning or judging what is most just, proper and useful, and if it is to be considered as an acquirement, it is the knowledge and use of what is best, most just, most proper, most conducive to prosperity or happiness.
