Milk depletes the calcium from your bones. Milk doesn't build strong bones. Milk building strong bones was a lie started by the dairy industry.
Consuming dairy actually strips away calcium from our bones. Yes, it gives us calcium, but it releases more of it. Dairy is a CAUSE of osteoporosis, not a cure. Dairy is highly acidic forming, causing an unbalanced pH. Your body will then pull calcium, a highly alkaline mineral, from the bones to try to balance your body’s pH. This survival mechanism weakens our bones.
Scientific studies show that milk increases fracture risk. Milk depletes the calcium from your bones. Aside from hearing that cow’s milk helps bones grow strong, what else do you “know” about it?
In the USA, we grow up hearing all about the benefits of dairy milk. We are told we need to drink it to be healthy. But, do we really? Are there any cold, hard facts about milk that contradict this health claim? There certainly are! Here are ten fascinating facts about cow’s milk.

TRUTH! In order for calcium to be properly absorbed, magnesium is needed. Dairy has very little magnesium.
TRUTH! Then why after the fact that American women consume 2 lbs of milk a day, does 30% of postmenopausal women in the US have osteoporosis. Chinese women consume all their calcium from plant foods and osteoporosis is virtually unknown there.

The milk myth has spread around the world based on the flawed belief that this protein and calcium-rich drink is essential to support good overall health and bone health in particular at any age. It is easy to understand that the confusion about milk’s imaginary benefits stems from the fact that it contains calcium – around 300 mg per cup.
But many scientific studies have shown an assortment of detrimental health effects directly linked to milk consumption. And the most surprising link is that not only do we barely absorb the calcium in cow’s milk (especially if pasteurized), but to make matters worse, it actually increases calcium loss from the bones. What an irony this is!
Here’s how it happens. Like all animal protein, milk acidifies the body pH which in turn triggers a biological correction. You see, calcium is an excellent acid neutralizer and the biggest storage of calcium in the body is – you guessed it… in the bones. So the very same calcium that our bones need to stay strong is utilized to neutralize the acidifying effect of milk. Once calcium is pulled out of the bones, it leaves the body via the urine, so that the surprising net result after this is an actual calcium deficit.
Knowing this, you’ll understand why statistics show that countries with the lowest consumption of dairy products also have the lowest fracture incidence in their population (there’s more on this later).
But the sad truth is that most mainstream health practitioners ignore these proven facts. I know it firsthand because when I was diagnosed with osteoporosis, my doctor recommended that I drink lots of milk in addition to taking Fosamax. Read More: saveourbones.com/osteoporosis-milk-myth/
