Why taking milk could be harmful to your health

• Most of us have grown up on milk and absolutely loved every drop of it. Good as it tastes, it is not good for you. Other than lactose intolerance which affects much of the world’s population without their knowledge, there are some potential health risks for taking milk.
• Despite what you have heard about a glass of milk a day to strengthen your bones, that is not true.

A research article by Dr David Ludwig and Dr Walter Willett from Harvard published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found no data to support the claim that the consumption of dairy leads to better bones, weight loss or improved health.
