On what basis many naturalists believe humans shouldn't eat milk at all?
Most naturalists claim that our stomach is not adjusted to consume species milk, we can not digest it well and it may cause many stomach diseases.
There is a tremendous difference between human babies and baby calves and a corresponding difference between the milk intended to nourish human babies and baby calves. It takes about 180 days for a human infant to double its birth weight, and human milk is five to seven percent protein. It takes only 45 days for a calf to double its birth weight and cow's milk is 15 percent protein. This protein in cow's milk is of a different composition than that of human milk and is poorly assimilated in the human body. The primary type of protein in cow's milk is casein. According to Dr. John R. Christopher, N.D., M.H., there is up to 20 times more casein in cow's milk than human milk which makes the nutrients in cow's milk difficult (if not impossible) for humans to assimilate.
They claim that the reason we have been told that milk is good for us is product of the farmers lobby pressure on the department of agriculture.
There are many dietary supplements for the calcium, vitamins and other important nutrients we usually consume form milk.
