Question: Is milk good for humans to drink

Andrew Quigley answered on 12 Nov 2015:

Yeah milk is good for humans to drink, it’s probably most people’s main source of calcium. Not only is milk full of calcium but it also contains loads of other nutrients that your body needs to stay healthy! Things like fat soluble vitamins (which are vitamins A, D, E, and K), water soluble vitamins ( e.g. the B vitamins), it also contains proteins and fats.

There some people who can’t drink milk though, they have a condition called lactose intolerance. This means they are unable to digest lactose (a sugar that’s in milk). So for them, drinking milk is more trouble than it’s worth and they have to get their calcium from other food sources.
