While organic milk might not contain synthetic hormones like rBST, it is still chock-full of sex hormones which, though not technically "added," are not good for humans. Dairy cows are "milked three hundred and five days per year, which means they are also milked for most of their pregnancy," Desaulniers writes. They are artificially inseminated so that they are kept pregnant and lactating almost all the time. That's why all milk contains a significant amount of the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone, the two pregnancy hormones, whether it's organic or not.
Not only is being constantly pregnant while they produce milk uncomfortable for the cows — it also might be pretty bad for humans who drink their milk.
In 2006, Harvard researchers published the results of a meta study that looked at 100,000 women aged 26 to 46. Those who had the highest intake of meat and dairy products also had the highest risk of breast cancer (33 percent more than those who consumed the least). For men, over 20 studies have established a strong link between prostate cancer and milk consumption. Hormones in milk might also be to blame for the rise of "man boobs": A 2010 Japanese study found that men's testosterone levels decreased after they began drinking milk.
"Among the routes of human exposure to estrogens, we are mostly concerned about cow's milk, which contains considerable amounts of female sex hormones," Dr. Davaasambuu Ganmaa said in a talk at Harvard. Dairy, she added, accounts for 60 percent to 80 percent of estrogens consumed by humans today.
That more of us don't know just how much drinking milk could increase our risk of cancer seems like a scandal — to say the least.
Milk has less fucking estrogen than wheat. I drink 1-2L every day and I'm more man than you'll ever be bitch.
Blake Butler
If milk effects your testosterone levels then you are a faggot. Lift some weights and sleep fucking pussy.
Brandon Bell
been doing GOMAD for 6 months here, no sign of bitch tits. Did a jew write that article?
Josiah Stewart
>6'2" >big frame >1/2/3/4 Okay, you've convinced me to never drink milk again.

I drink almond water no cow tit juice

How the fuck does wheat have a mammal hormone?

Ever heard of phytoestrogens you dumb fucking cunt?

Drink milk from male cows. Problem solved.

This. Bull's milk is high on test.

Yeah, so my receptors are full of weak plant estrogens, giving me just enough to function in society. Yours are absolutely loaded with full strength mammal estrogen because you drink a hormone cocktail meant for a 500lb beast, making you a certified numale.

>europeans drink milk for thousands of years >tallest, strongest humans on the planet
>a few studies in less than a hundred year period say otherwise
I've never understood this. You might argue chemicals added to milk or antibiotics in cattle cause these things, but milk itself? Flat out silly.
Nathaniel Lewis
Not him but I'm ethiopian and I drink milk fine. Why do poltards think that only white people can drink milk?
Brayden Nelson
I drink a fuck ton of milk and my testosterone is sky high so fuck off basedcücks
Isaac White
I ain't gay, but that is for the mire I guess.
Caleb Mitchell
Cows weren't milked while pregnant a thousand years ago. It's a yield-increasing practice recent adopted by the dairy industry and good luck finding a farm that doesn't do it.
Leo Ward

Aiden Mitchell
Milk is only harmful if you are not white. White people can drink milk and it is very good for white people.
Everyone I see who is against milk is a non-white person. Stick to your own race's diet buddy
Forgot to mention. I'm a white person. t. white person
Anthony Richardson
If milk harms you then you are not white
Carter Jackson
europeans did not drink milk for thousands of years. It was only drank as a celebratory treat and special occasions, it was more common to drink weak ass piss beer because the water was contaminated and they didn't know how to mass distill yet. This farmers life bullshit from the late 1900s gets interwoven into everything I swear holy fuck.
Jackson Anderson
Guys. Guys! I'm white!!
Nathan Perry
Not even that, just common sense to follow your race/ethnic's natural diet for optimal health
>as much milk as they wanted You're not even using your brain cell right now. They did not have as much milk as they wanted. They actually had to share it with the calves before factory farming.
Logan Johnson
Of course they did, even considering sharing with the cows things like butter, cheese, and yogurt have been eaten for hundreds of years, how could these things be created if there wasn't a shit ton of milk around to curdle/ferment/whatever
Carter Miller
Based milk going over the white race while lactose intolerant BBC take their women.
Austin Carter
With food studies, especially for things like milk, evidence is all over the place. Some studies show it help with bone loss, others it worsens it. Some say it prevents cancers, others say it promotes them. Some say It's linked to certain diseases, others say it prevents them.
Nutritional science is among the garbage sciences in terms of providing irrefutable proof.
I personally follow raypeat, and drink a litre of goats milk a day, as he says milk it one of the most perfect foods you can ingest. IF you tolerate it.
Charles Lewis
This is retarded, look at normal people drinking milk vs malnourished so᠌yboys who drink mememilk and invite refugees into their livingroom
Jaxson Cook
Well you're wrong. For the better part of a thousand years goats were regularly milked in Eastern Germany and northern Europe. It was quite regular. That's how we became able to digest milk. Don't blame the fact you're some 50% mutt that can't digest milk and say they are the problem when you develop hormonal issues due to other factors obviously unrelated to milk itself.
Benjamin Foster
Whitebois so in denial about milk they're willing to transition for it.
Hudson Fisher
I call bullshit. I have an inflammation in the intestine and milk gives me the worst shitts every time

No a vegan did
Cameron Bailey
Drinking milk significantly increases igf-1. If you are going through puberty (or your son is/about to), unironically do GOMAD or 0.5GOMAD.
Otherwise, don't drink it. Milk destroys your gut bacteria. There is no fucking reason to drink it beyond puberty.
fucking let me have something to eat, fucking everything has hormones in it. Every study is telling me that every food group is turning me into a girl and that if I eat anything enjoyable I will grow tits. YOU KNOW FUCKING WHAT? I WILL EAT WHATEVER THE FUCK I WANT I will eat bacon and eggs, despite the apparent risk of cholesterol raping me. I will fucking drink milk because milk is delicious and is something my ancestors obviously have fucking drank, because newsflash I have enzymes that stop me from shitting my guts out when I drink milk. I will eat eggs, I will eat vegetables, I will eat meat. As much of it as I can afford and not waste, you will not dictate to me what I can and can't eat because chances are you're a stick insect reincarnated into a sickly childs body. I'M SICK OF YOU SHILLS FUCKING WITH PEOPLES DIETS
God made us free, and it is man that enslaves man. Then the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go
Neither are they now. Cows don't have to be pregnant to produce milk dipshits. Don't treat them like humans, it's a different species for fucks sake. Die you fucking jew.
Hunter Cox
>Milk has less fucking estrogen than wheat. HAHAHAHAHA
Dylan Barnes
Are they wrong?
Hunter Sullivan
Lactose tolerance does nothing for your ability to deal with exogenous hormones.
Evan Ward
They do not have nearly the same potency as mammalian estrogen, and by binding to the receptors they can actually lower estrogen levels for the reason they are much less potent.
Jordan Russell
>not drinking a hormone cocktail meant for a 500lbs beast LEAVE HUMANITY BEHIND
Joshua Bailey
it's food i don't care how comfortable it is
Jaxson Rogers
Milk is good for growth, noone is disputing that. The IGF1 and hormones see to that. But promoting growth, while it means you can become tall if drinking plenty of milk while young, is not the same thing as promoting long term health. The same things that cause growth can become harmful if taken when your body is already fully grown.
David Collins
I do not think you know how the human body works.
Adrian Cruz
Jesus Cristos, how can you lack so much nuance? NO, people didn't have access to modern supermarkets with massive amounts of milk in the past. NO, milk production was not practiced to the same extent nor in the same way in the past.

I used to drink 1.5L to almost 3L daily, it was skim milk however. Now I started drinking milk again but I cannot digest it properly, this has happened since I got memed into eating a shit load of vegetables which made my stomach randomly puke at night completely fucking its flora up kefir is fine though, same for cheese, skyr, greek yoghurt and all that
Luis Nelson
Yes you do. I bet you'd viscerally react to animal cruelty if you were actually exposed to it in real life. Most people do. being desensitised to it id nothing to be proud of, and makes you no better than a Chinamen.
Asher Cox
>That's why all milk contains a significant amount of the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone >progesterone
Two studies on the anabolic effects of progesterone.
Ingesting estrogen and progesterone does not imply your body will absorb them as is. Most of the time those hormones get broken down by chylomicrons and converted into cholesterol which then get repurposed as other hormones. That's why ingesting dianabol or some other oral steroid is so hard on your liver because of that conversion process and the byproducts cleaved from it. Estradiol and test have very similar structures and both can be interconverted by aromatases. It isn't enough to just take estrogen to feminize a man. It is the same process as when taking high doses of androgens. You need to curb the level that your body tries to balance those hormones out with inhibitors and other synthesis drugs otherwise you will accomplish next to nothing like that one retard on here who was fat as shit while blasting tren and test without AI and wasn't making any fucking gains.
This is why phytoestrogens don't really have any effect on male testosterone levels. Your body actively fights to maintain that hormone balance. The real problem to your testosterone is supplying your body with excess conversion tools, such as aromatase found in fat tissue. That's why staying lean is the best option for increasing your test levels. Not avoiding fucking onions milk cause of fucking meme fear mongering. Hell, given the proper circumstances, ingesting estrogen could even boost a man's testosterone.
Eli Sanchez
I'm not sure you know how cancer works.
In context, yes. The levels of growth hormones in cow milk are much higher than is ideal for humans, and while they promote growth, that isn't the be all and end all of health.
Jaxon Fisher
What gyno? Not that guy but I always see jealous manlets comment on non-existent flaws as a sad attempt at instilling insecurity in others. You should check your bitterness before you end up totally friendless and alone.
