Hay guise, PHD here, no ulterior motives- read my new article:

>>"Under scientific scrutiny, the support for the milk myth crumbles. This analysis of 58 published studies shows that the evidence on which U.S. dairy intake recommendations are based is scant," says Dr. Lanou, lead author of the study. "A clear majority of the studies we examined for this review found no relationship between dairy or dietary calcium intake and measures of bone health. In the remaining reports, the evidence was sketchy. In some, the effects on bone health were small, and in others, the results were confounded by vitamin D intake from milk fortified with vitamin D. To build strong bones and healthy bodies, children need exercise, sunshine, and a diet rich in fruits and vegetables that helps them maintain a healthy body weight."

>>By way of clarification, of the 58 studies that we reviewed, 11 were excluded for not controlling for weight, pubertal status, or exercise, and 10 focused specifically on the effects of calcium supplements. 1 Of the remaining 37 studies, 4 had prospective designs that specifically addressed the effects of dairy calcium rather than total dietary calcium on bone health in children and young adults.25 Of these, 3 were randomized, controlled trials and 1 was a cohort study.
