Summary
Milk isn’t just for babies—it’s a powerhouse of protein, fat, carbs, and key vitamins like D and A that support bones and immunity. But not all milk is equal: cow’s milk is common, but sheep and goat milk may be easier to digest for some, thanks to natural A2 proteins or shorter fatty chains. Plant milks like soy, almond, and oat are lactose-free and great for intolerant folks, though they often lack protein and nutrients—unless fortified. Soy’s the most complete plant option, but watch out for anti-nutrients that can block mineral absorption. Lactose intolerance is actually super common worldwide, rooted in genetics, and explains why many cultures avoid dairy. Your body’s built for milk, but your choice depends on your needs and tolerance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
