DAIRY NONSENSICAL

The Dairy Council’s working hard to convince us their product is healthy.

They say they just want to help our kids to be athletic and lively.

But think before you drink, what is their real motivation?

Research. Look stuff up. The truth is a revelation.

****

Cows’ milk contains calcium but not for humans to digest,

So triggers joint pain, arthritis, asthma, problems of the chest,

Sleeplessness, itchy rashes, diabetes, ulcers,

Migraines, ear infections, epileptic seizures.

****

Humans don’t need cows’ milk, the idea is really nonsensical.

There’s plenty of calcium after all in broccoli, collard greens and kale.

It’s the Dairy Council themselves who “milk it for all it’s worth”,

But sensible people shake their heads and pull nutrition direct from the earth.

    A fridge without milk seems so empty yet the whole idea of drinking it is nonsensical indeed. Oh dear. Thank you for the reminder Violet. And have a great weekend. 🙂

      You too Nomzi 🙂 Fill your fridge with rice milk, or oat milk, or almond milk, or soya milk, and be happy 😀
