milk

[muzicmann12]

after drinking soy milk almost exclusively for the past ~16 months (around 5 of which I was a vegan), i've decided to start drinking cow's milk again. i was eating too much soy and too much soy is really harmful, especially to guys (there's a hormone in soy that's very similar to estrogen....soy also has some other stuff in it that's harmful in

I have a bunch of Vegan friends who insist that soy milk is the best thing ever.

I throw eggs at them.

it IS the best thing ever. it tastes SO much better than regular milk, has more calcium than normal milk (in most brands), and is better for the environment than cow's milk

that said, soy in too large of quantities is really bad, it's really expensive......and i just needed a break from it

You should be hardcore careful about making a dramatic shift, ur body might reject the milk (b/c of cow's horomones) at first. I drink organic milk (and lactose free) exclusively, but one morning I didnt have any, so I drank like 5 glasses of normal milk (......I really like milk, okay) and I was puking for hours. SO. maybe start with organic milk first!

In retrospect, something that durastic might not happen to you. I just remembered that I'm lactose intolerant. SOO that could have contributed to my sickness.

yea, i'm definitely being careful. that said, i think my body will be ok. though i haven't been drinking cow's milk much at all for more than a year, i've been having plenty of other dairy products.....i have yogurt probably once a day (at least i have been since i stopped being vegan about a month ago)

i stopped drinking soy milk because it contains so much carrageenan. have since switched to almond milk. never looked back.
