Now what about milk? Lets look away from domestication. Do you think a wild cattle is going to let you suck it's nipples? Hell no. The fact that this cattle is producing milk means she has a reason to, to feed her calf. No one else. Sometime in a calfss life their body changes. Their stomachs and metabolism are changing to breakdown grass not milk. They stop drinking their mothers milk and start to eat grass. It's the same thing for humans. After a while we stop sucking on our mothers tits and start putting real food into our mouths.

You know I thought things like this were common sense. Then again I almost can't blame you. Everyday we hear that milk is good for us. It's easy to believe when you hear this everyday.

Does milk not break down into amino acids, fatty acids, and sugars like every other food or something?

A lot of people are lactose intolerant and don't even know it because they don't experience the bloating and nausea until days after consumption.

Regardless if you are lactose tolerable, lactose is not needed by the body. It still does harm.

breast milk

I don't know. Would a chick naturally let a 35-year old suck her tits?

For those of you saying that you should eat only the things you would be eating naturally, I daresay you would have to switch out your diet.. A lot.

For another thing, we're all so used to pasteurized and cleaned and purified and flourinated and just about sanitized that we can't take the food that we ate when we were in a more natural habitat. Civilization pampered our immune system.

Take this example. Take someone that is poor and lives in a rural environment. Say, they eat snakes sometimes and stuff like that. Say the water there isn't treated. If he/she survives, you can bet he won't get food poisoning. Would you? YES Should you eat the same natural things as he/she did? NO
