The Eternal MYTH of Milk - Woman Milk vs Cow Milk
This document discusses the benefits of human breast milk over cow's milk for infants. It notes that no wild animals consume milk beyond weaning age and that human breast milk is uniquely suited to human infants. The composition of breast milk changes over time to provide different levels of nutrients as the infant grows. Breast milk contains higher levels of beneficial components like immunoglobulins, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals compared to cow's milk. While infant formula and cow's milk are modified to resemble breast milk, the protein structures differ. The document concludes that reducing dairy consumption may provide health benefits since cow's milk has been linked to diseases, while calcium and nutrition can be obtained from non-dairy sources.
