Yeah stop drinking pasteurized milk three years ago thinking my acne was coming from it which may be true but I think it may have been just due to high sugar in my diet which I dialed back on. But I also noticed 3 years ago my hair was much more thicker and luscious back when I was drinking milk so I'm going to try raw milk and see how that goes let's see if my thick hair comes back from 3 years ago and hopefully I don't get as much acne since I don't consume sugar as much as I did back then.

I don't know how it is in Europe or other parts of the world, but my experience with South America, is that no body, not even children drinks pure milk, actually the idea is kind of disgusting actually, milk is a ingredient and so drinking pure milk would be like eating pure wheat flower. My hunch is that drinking pure milk was a social engineering thing and lets say in the XIX century and back not even Americans did it. PS: I almost forgot: the absolute nauseating thing about people drinking pure milk in America movies for people in South America that I've spoken is eating it with food that you would eat drinking a coke, juice, wine, whatever but not freaking milk! That is gross!

I’d love to see how this false narrative about milk trickled down to other countries. but drinking plain milk by itself is still weird in india - we have so many malt powder mixes to make it taste better & so these malt companies are advertised more than the milk itself. My biggest culture shock when I moved to America was finding out that Americans drink plain raw milk, especially along with a meal

As someone with liver and kidney problems? Milk is just amazing and there is literally nearly nothing oz for oz as cheap and jam packed with both macro and micronutrients. You have to go into dietary or nutritional drinks to get that and while I love Nova Source? It has too many vitamins and minerals and I have to be careful not to get too much of any as my body cannot clear them. Phosphorous being the biggest one I struggle with. I need to gain weight. A glass of full milk has lipids, carbs, and complete protein. I've tried the other replacements and they just don't compare. Especially when I buy Lacktaid Protein or Fairlife. Sure it is saturated fat but ATM I need any fat in order to gain weight for a transplant. Chocolate Milk is also the nectar of the gods! Anyway like all super foods and such it isn't a pancea. Moderation is also key. PS: One reason why Milk is important for me is because of the low fluid restrictions. I can only have 24oz of liquid per day and that includes water in food. So it doesn't make sense for me to drink something like clean ice water or even juice... If I put something in my body? Ideally it should have both macro and micronutrients. To me this is the hardest thing about dying is the fact I don't produce urine. No coffee, tea, juice, soup... I am forever thirsty and if I ever get a transplant the first thing I'm doing is chugging a huge glass of ice cold chocolate milk. Making a slushi and drinking it till I puke or can't handle the brain freeze.
I think context is crucial. Mr Harris makes some great points here but it’s worth thinking about what you’re drinking instead. Realistically its the 2nd healthiest drink after water - fruit juice and smoothies are sooo full of sugar (eating fruit let’s you take the sugar in slowly and chewing sets of a whole load of processes that prepare your body for what’s coming), refined sugar is bad and any sweetener (even ‘natural’ sweeteners) are ultra-processed, and our bodies aren’t at all adapted to deal with something that tastes like sugar (which upon tasting may for example cause the body to raise insulin levels) but actually isn’t. Best drink water, 2nd best milk, then comes everything else

Just a thought... getting a child to drink a glass of milk to get 300mg of calcium is way easier than trying to get them to eat a 100g of almonds. I can get calcium from cabbage if I wanted to, but I'd have to eat a shitload of it to get even nearly the same amount (oxylates in cabbage bond with calcium, thus reducing the amount available for absorbtion) So yes, you can get calcium from other sources but do remember that it's the ease of ingestion as well as nutrient density that also play a major factor.

It really was insane how hard schools pushed students to drink milk. A couple years ago, during the peak of the pandemic, I chose to go back to school in person. I should mention this was an optional choice, and most kids chose to stay virtual. Yet, it seemed like the school didn’t adjust the the amount of milk they were ordering. Grabbing a milk box became mandatory at lunchtime, I tried every day to refuse it, knowing I wouldn’t drink it and that it would be wasted. One day the lunch lady just straight up said “Look I know your lactose intolerant, just take the milk and throw it in the trash.” (I’m not even lactose intolerant but I guess she assumed I was since I kept trying to refuse the milk, I just think it’s crazy that the school was encouraging me to waste it.)

The worst thing about modern "American" (I'm Australian and we have much the same problem) milk was watching you pour the milk from the carton and seeing how thin watery and see through it is. proper milk isn't like that, but what they put in the bottle has already had most of the good stuff stripped out for cream butter and cheese production. Just like Kraft cheese is a pale imitation of proper real cheese.

Huh, I actually ate quite a bit of that government cheese. It wasn't bad at all. I lived with a widow who had 3 kids under 18 and we'd get rations monthly-wheat, cheese, canned fruit and vegetables, usually oatmeal and sometimes eggs. A local dairy farmer was sweet on her, he would bring a gallon of milk every week and we would skim off the cream and make butter. No one in the house was a milk fan, we used it for hot cereal, cooking/baking.

One of the unfortunate truths about being a biologist that I had to learn in my undergraduate studies was where the money comes from to actually fund any proposed research. So very much of it is from groups with lots of money and an agenda and when you pitch your research idea, you have to basically sell your research potential as a product: either as a way to make of save money. The other options are government funding which is a nightmare of red tape and can completely be just as biased or charities/special interest groups like WWF (panda not smackdown) who might have much more altruistic intensions but are equally as biased. So you have to juggle skewing your pitch to be as attractive as possible and then immediately turn around and be as unbiased and analytical as possible so you can practice good science (as you always should) and not get flagged during peer review. All this while under the realization that it's a "publish or perish" job market and if you keep getting "boring" results your career will go nowhere. I'm not saying that biologists who run the studies like the "bigger rats on milk" one in the video are unscrupulous just that there is this massive "sword of Damocles" hanging over all of our heads to produce results that will let us keep doing research. This isn't to say that we are all soulless, greedy puppets who produce false narratives for our benefactors; quite the opposite. Most of the biologists I know and have worked with are people with only the best intensions who pursue knowledge for it's own sake with an almost childlike desire to simply better understand the nature of living things and how they function for the betterment of everything and everyone but are forced to navigate the maze of biased capitalism and politics. An example I like to use is from a presentation I saw from a post-grad while I was doing my undergrad. It was basically "what happens to spiders in winter" it was basic and should be easy to find out, but the honest answer is that we have no evidence based idea what happens to them. I asked afterwards why we don't know and the simple answer was because there is profit in knowing: they aren't pests, we can't make new products or medicine from knowing, and they aren't big cuddly adorable mammals with a million people ready to protest for them. Simply put- we want to know but no one will give us the money.

All I'm reading here is "I don't have the spare time to research milk or what spiders do in winter" and both things are so prosaic and accessible that I wouldn't believe anyone's excuses why they don't know or aren't pursuing the questions if they also purport to be interested. I think those are interesting things to research and everyone can spend free time to investigate them. I have a feeling once you do the research and publish you might start attracting the corporate paymasters for some expository research in the fields of spiders and milk and then get that fat moolah you want so much; literally no amount of money obliges you to lie or be biased about anything. You might face consequences of the money faucet being turned off but isn't the world full of things to research? Like peanut butter.

@@Elite244 Actual research that can be published isn't generally cheap to do, even for small prospective studies just to see if a topic has further research potential. It's not really an out-of-pocket thing in most cases. (Ironically, psych studies are actually some of the cheapest.) Also, as Lillith mentions, publishing is its own problem- because there aren't people with infinite free time to do peer review (which is generally an unpaid task), there is a limit to how many articles can and will be published in peer-reviewed publications. The bias there is towards papers that demonstrate some strong outcome- while there is great scientific value in studies whose conclusion is "We didn't find any statistically significant results", unless it is about something controversial, it will be hard to get published, at which time you have wasted the time and resources you used for the study, while some other researcher did one of the milk-fed rat studies, got a publication credit, and is now able to maybe get some funding for the research they want to do that doesn't involve milk, in addition to having a better shot at promotion and/or tenure. If you do the spider study and all you can figure out is "they aren't in spots A, B, or C during the winter", that is great information, but it's not going to go anywhere but your own filing cabinet. A close friend of mine did a study funded by a local news station. He was testing the pushbars on grocery carts to see how germy they were. Turns out, the environment around here is so dry that it makes hard surfaces like that very inhospitable, and unless there was so much dampness that it would be obvious on the handles, germs lasted about two minutes. Unsurprisingly, that didn't make the news. They were looking for a shock study, and the fact that people could be calm about that particular hazard wasn't what they had use for. There is a severe problem with inconclusive studies or ones that don't produce "interesting" or desired results being trashed, and all the time and resources the researchers put into it are just gone.

This video has brought a lot of deeper thought to an already widely covered topic. Kept me interested from start to finish!
Milk is one of the highest-quality protein sources available, according to the DIAAS scale, which rates protein sources according to nutritional quality. I drink gallons weekly, along with a resistance training regimen, cardio and yoga. I feel very good. I love milk!

I was working on my dissertation and didn't want to stop to eat. I like milk, so I just sat in front of my computer and drank milk for ten hours. At the end of the day, I felt terrible. I have diabetes, so I guessed correctly that the reason I didn't feel well was my blood sugar. I don't know exactly what my glucose level was because it maxed out the meter. I had always been taught that milk is healthy, and I never questioned the veracity of that claim. Turns out I might as well have been drinking soda or juice. Milk converts to sugar. Who knew?
Up to age 30 I thought it normal to have a sort of rope of mucus in the back of my throat most of the time. Then a friend told me much of what is in this video.

Maybe we are today, but in the past it was one of the crucial foods. All my grandparents had a small farm and they made their own butter, milk, cheese to have food on the table. They were poor and their weren't big grocery stores like today. And guess what, they all reached the age of 90+ so i'm pretty sure it wasnt that bad. There was a time that our ancestors only ate meat and had to hunt each day. And nowadays they tell you meat is bad and you have to go vegan.

This story is so important to more than just milk. This is happening in so many US industries: cars, airlines, and now housing. We’re often given to conspiratorial thoughts about these government interventions but just as with milk the story usually starts from a place of need and limited government action (feeding troops) but is quickly exploited by people with an agenda. This is exactly what happened after the housing collapse and is occurring now with massive conglomerates and investors gambling on the prices of homes fully expecting the government to bail them out so that people won’t go homeless. We need serious government reform of food, transportation and housing in our country and we can’t continue to be distracted by nonsense that doesn’t actually affect our lives.

My grandparents are dairy farmers. They don't actually drink milk themselves just sell it. I just find it funny. It's also interesting you mention cars in need of reform. In the US car manufacturers are pushing for larger and larger cars/trucks and telling us we need vehicles that large. Yet my farming grandparents get by with significantly smaller trucks from the 90s ( sides tractors of course ). I'm actually a part of a research group that studies ruminants in cattle. It turns out that factory farms feed their cows all kinds of food they shouldn't be eating and the microbes inside their digestive tract produce significant amounts of greenhouse gas. (You should look it up). However if you do what my grandparents do and let the cattle walk around the field and eat grass they don't produce as much greenhouse gas and are healthier/ live longer.

Good for you. I think I'm somewhat lactose intolerant, but just got used to it. Went vegan and cheated once and realized that I felt like shit after eating just a slice of cheese. Very strange feeling realizing you've been harming yourself for decades. I have somewhat unconsciously decreased my dairy consumption slowly overtime because I noticed harmful effects after a ton of dairy and just thought it was normal, but intuitively felt it wasn't the healthiest thing to eat for me. It's pretty insane they've been pushing dairy like this in a multicultural country when most of the world shouldn't be consuming the stuff.

Excellent video. I love cheese (despite a little bit of Vietnamese genetics), and I find it very sad that American cheese, on the whole, is so bland and uninteresting, when they have so much milk. But then, if they made camembert/brie type cheese, or Provolone etc, it would impact their bottom line as it takes time and effort.
This guy is right about the government setting prices. This always leads to either a surplus or shortage. In the case of milk it led to a surplus because the price they set was above the going rate. This meant that more farmers were supplying milk than consumers were demanding it. This is because the higher price incentivizes producer to produce it but disincentivizes the demand for it. Demand goes down, supply goes up = surplus, too much milk. This is always true of price controls. It’s true of minimum wage, it’s true of rent controls. All price controls wreak havoc.
Surprised to learn about this. Growing up in the southern part of India, unsweetened (very slightly sour) Yogurt mixed with rice is a finishing item for us in every meal since a long time. There are poems which describe the love of curd (Yogurt is more in use in America) mixed with rice from as old as 11th Century CE. In fact, I only started hearing about lactose intolerance after coming onto the internet and meeting people from other parts of the world.

Let's go halfway across the globe to India, where I grew up, a country that is thousands of years old in terms of civilization. Over there, cows are sacred because of the milk they yield. And oh, the bulls helped plough the land and also pulled the carts for transporting goods and people. Is it any wonder they came to be considered sacred? I grew up a LACTO-VEGETARIAN. And yet, we were never ever forced to consume huge amounts of milk. Well OK let me calculate. We started the day with a cup (well, OK two cups if you holler for it) of CAFÉ AU LAIT, which is quite an art to get right. One cup of tea brewed in a mix of water and milk in the afternoon. And in between, a serving of yogurt (called curds, eew, a word that sounds like turds...) :) with rice for lunch and dinner. About two tablespoons with each meal. Hmmm, this is pretty much standard, come to think of it, across India even now. I have relatives who are lactose intolerant who had to suffer through the miseries of all this lactose until they finally realized that it was the milk that was making them sick. How about cheese? I absolutely hated Indian cheese growing up, tasteless and yucky, and imports were not allowed in order to allow domestic cheese to survive. So there it is. Cows and humans, in nice harmony, for the past several thousand years. I won't ruin your day talking about the cancer-causing nature of milk in humans...😆
As a kid in the 80's I drank 1-2 gallons of milk a day. I'm the tallest and largest person in my family by a wide margin.

Parents were from Caribbean and Central America, so they did not grow up drinking excessive amounts of milk- maybe a few cups a week from dairy GOATS. Everything else that you wanted for a smooth, unctous, fatty flavor was done using homemade coconut milk or peanut milk. I grew up only drinking milk was I was little, usually at school, and even then it was hard to get kids to drink it, so it was sweetened and flavored (chocolate and strawberry milk) I don't drink milk now, and only have cheese in dishes a couple of times a month.
