I'm running low on milk so today.


You drink milk as an adult? It's
pure sugar, no wonder you're fat.

Never heard of cereal and water for breakfast.

I was well off the scales today...looks like it would be about 330 if it was graduated beyond 300.

Good god, you eat CEREAL? Are you 8 years
old? Pure carb and sugar, you're lucky you
don't weigh 400 pounds. For lunch every
day I eat an avocado and a can of sardines.
Wonder food.

An 8 oz glass of milk contains 12g of sugars, 4% of your recommended daily value.

Also, that is a natural sugar, not a refined sugar such as high fructose corn syrup, and sugar isn't added to the milk as a sweetener.

Adults have no business drinking milk,
especially obese elderly people. 12g
of sugar, I don't eat that much in a
week.

Adults Should Not Be Drinking Milk

Fact: Milk is for babies and children. If you are an adult—i.e., not a baby or child—you should not be drinking milk. 60% of adults cannot digest milk properly.

I agree with 2 exceptions,

*really good buttermilk once in a while

*a bottle of milk immersed in ice water on a hot day about once a summer. Not just refrigerated, but as cold as it can get this way without freezing. Maybe even salt the ice for a bit. Life is good!

It certainly isn't pure sugar.

Sugar is sugar. Fructose, that occurs naturally
in fruit, is actually worse for you than cane
or milk sugar.

Nothing is pure sugar except sugar.
Milk is pure sugar to me. I don't
eat sugar, haven't since 1973.
