What type of sugar is in milk? Anonymous
I don't add sugar to my milk but looking on the carton (of Organic Fat-Free Skim Milk), I see 12 grams of sugar.

For one thing, the protein from milk (8 grams) is less than the amount of sugar! I'm beginning to think I shouldn't eat cereal and milk two times a day.

How does the sugar in milk effect our body? As a simple carb or what?

Also, the lactose I've read is a part of the sugar but what happens when you get lactose free milk? Shouldn't the sugar not be there?

there is never any actual lactose free milk. unless your talking soy milk.

I started drinking soy but then found it about the whole "estrogen" thing.

So since I drink a lot of milk, I don't want a product where I'll get the effects of estrogen.

God damn, people back in the day drank milk, they were in shape. Look at how fat we are nowadays, yeah, all that soy milk and milk substitutes are really helping.

Man up, drink the milk, enjoy food.

I can't drink milk asshole. I'm lactose intolerant. So why don't you go out and buy yourself a fucking cow. Then buy yourself a bull. Mate the two until the cow becomes pregnant. Cow has baby, you get milk. Repeat a few times then kill mama, eat mama, then get a new mama for mating.

That's the way people did it 'back in the day' faggot.

People back in the day also didn't inject their animals with steroids and hormones to prolong lactation.

mmmm yummy

so many people are lactose intolerant because it's natures way of saying that your not an infant anymore and your body shouldn't be processing lactose.

Lactose is actually a low-GI carb, coupled with casein protein, which is a slow digesting protein. You can even have a cup of milk on a ketogenic diet without fucking up too much, since it doesn't fuck with insulin.

Fuck this. You don't lose the ability to digest lactose as you grow up.

>>244154
Fuck this twice. Humans can digest galactose and lactose, if a bit inefficiently. But, as a biologist, I can tell you that humans do just about everything inefficiently. People who say "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DRINK MILK LOL" can suck my balls. You're a great many times less able at digesting plant matter than milk, but do you stop eating fruit and vegetables?

I have no problem digesting plant matter. I suck at digesting cellulose, which is why I cook my asparagus and don't eat grass.

take a look at that chart. It shows you that depending on your race, you do lose the ability to process lactose as you grow older (referring to the listing "african american children"). It also shows you that even races that prominently eat dairy are over 50% likely to be lactose intolerant and they just ignore it and have bad digestion problems and terrible gas. (maybe that's why mexicans smell weird)

anyway. Yes it is a normal and naturally occurring thing. And no, I don't believe you are supposed to digest lactose at all after childhood.

Yes, you do suck at digesting cellulose. Always wanted to tell you, but it just wasn't the right time.

There's more to plants than cellulose though, and you're pretty bad at absorbing a lot of it. Why do you think shit is so fertile? And why do seeds pass through you unharmed?

lactose is a protein, not a sugar

just buy goddamn Mootopia milk--it's got 24g of protein in one cup and about 1/2 the sugar of regular milk...also has no lactose so if you're lactose intolerant PROBLEM SOLVED...also you can buy fat free mootopia, and it's like drinking almost pure protein and SHIT IS SOO GOOD WITH OREOS

i used to drink a gallon or more a week

i stopped drinking milk for 6 months

now when I have even 1 cup of milk a day, i fart like crazy because my body stopped producing the enzymes to process lactose

i have to start drinking milk slowly to become un-lactose-intolerant, but then i'd be farting like crazy at work, and SHIT SUCKS

fuck that shit

maybe you don't HAVE to process lactose after childhood, but if you maintain the ability after childhood, that's a net gain for you no matter what because it means you have more sources of food you can take from

for me it happened really suddenly. I went from making myself eggplant parmigiana and yogurt smoothies every day, then boom I got super sick all the time and I couldn't figure out why. I would eat a meal and get terrible pains in my intestines and bloat then start vomiting up anything left in my stomach.

I stopped eating dairy entirely and felt fine.
If I even eat one cookie with milk in it I'll get really really sick now. It sucks, but I've never been as /fit/ in my life.

Try soy milk for two weeks. Give it a shot.
And no, there is no estrogen in soy that could mess you up.
It's phyto-estrogen that the human body cannot process.
I don't drink milk anymore, the thought alone makes me wanna puke.
Did you know that there's always some blood and puss in milk?

You are correct, sir.

Almost all mammals lose their ability to digest milk after infancy. Lactose intolerance is the norm; bonus points if you can still have it.

If you have a 4chan gold account, like most us oldfags, then simply go to the premium board named /store/ and put Mootopia brand milk in your online shopping cart, then click Buy. It'll be sent straight from Mexico, so be sure to boil it before drinking or you could contract dysentery.

I just want to point out humans were originally lactose intolerant after a certain age. Just like it is for other mammals. You drink milk from your mother and then stop once you're older.

It is because of a mutation in the European genome that allows us to drink milk today. The mutation stuck around so we can drink milk and handle it just fine as adults.

Also, if you do not want to drink milk, or soy, then try almond milk. It's just almonds + water. If you want it sweeter Blue Diamond offers a version that's sweetened. If you do not like almonds then you can try Grain or rice, but that is carb central.

nothing wrong with milk. Also, if you are lactose intolerant, drink normal milk even more. Two different doctors said I was, and I just drank milk even more, and I think my body adapted to it. Fucking awesome in my opinion.

By the way, chocolate milk is the best fucking post workout drink.

lulz, both SOY and MILK have a shit load of estrogens.

yes, even IF organic, altho orgo milk has less than orgo soy.

so that silly 'eww, estrogens' argument is moot.

both drinks are for fags

unless you are combining a gallon of it w/20 rep squatz, which i'll tip my cap too
>> Anonymous

20 rep squats? What would that be good for?
Soy estrogen is phyto-estrogen (phyto is plant for you idiots) which does nothing to the human body.
Milk contains hormones and steroids, which does fuck with your body.

Thank fucking god someone else has the intelligence to realise this. I break a smile every time i see someone panicking over drinking soy.
>> Anonymous
>>246250
indeed, i was making a 'lifter reference' to strossen and the infamous 'gallon of milk and 20rep squat routine' of the 60s to put on 'bulk'

and although plant based, phyto estrogens are indeed analogues to estrodiol receptors within the body (that means it acts like estrogen to the body, for those of you who are fuck tards)

altho i will concede the amount required to set things decently out of whack in the male body is relatively 'high' dosage (ie. a litre of day) BUTTTTTTTTT
combine the fact that soy is in EVERYTHING with the constant barrage of xenoestrogen toxins (birthcontrol in h20 supply, microwaving in plastic) in everyday life...and you will reach threshold relatively soon.

my observational evidence: the average age of menarche (when your period starts, for the fucktards) has consistently moved up over the last 80 years, and even more so in the last 30 (BC usage widespread, contaminates most water supply in western world). as a field example, see puerto rico and its problem .

Dunno, the soy thing seems hysterical to me.
Yes, xenoestrogens in the water, if people would stop drinking beer all day, their guts would vanish and they'd have sex drive again.
I'd go so far and say that the milk industry is snitching on the soy industry by spreading the rumor that you'll grow tits if you drink soy.
GO HARDCORE AND ONLY DRINK WATER FROM A 1000 YEAR OLD SPRING IN THE BLACKFOREST, DRILLED FROM 3000 METERS BELOW ROCK! You won't grow tits, I assure you.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were. Given the fact that people generally want to be healthier over the past 5-10 years and soy milk is a healthier alternative to milk it's fairly easy for character assassin's to crawl the internet posting estrogen crap and "studies" on websites.

Do you really believe that a business will stand by as another product gains a larger foothold in their market? Character assassin's exist in many market's and with the introduction of the internet combined with the gullibility of the general population, they have become very successful. Take some time reading those customer reviews on Amazon or forums discussing products.

I have been drinking Silk Unsweetened for the past couple of weeks instead of my regular 2%. Aside from the so called "theories" that it has estrogen in it and all that crap is there any downside to drinking it over regular milk? Im not lactose intolerant or anything, I just didnt like all the sugar and fat from my regular milk.
Also, I eat it with that cereal called "vector". Is this a good combo?
