Right out of the 90's, might as well be from the dark ages. The doc should take this vid down to prevent the spread of misinformation.
Too low volume to listen!
For the folks who wonder where they can get their calcium, I will give you a bit of an idea. For example, in a day's eating I typically include something like a cup of kale (177mg) a cup of red cabbage (126mg) a can of chickpeas (110mg) a sweet potato (89mg) orange (52mg) some flax seed (35mg) 3/4 cup of oats (31mg) onion (25mg) carrot (19mg.) Those are the main sources of calcium. My target is 600mg as a minimum but I would usually exceed 700mg every day.
I thought the absorption was exactly the opposite. What about chelation by phytates? (I'm vegan btw)
So why don't cow have heart attack from the saturated fat?
Great video!
what is the source for your claim here, that calcium from plant absorbs more than that of dairy?
Men who drink dairy milk experience a drop in testosterone. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19496976
This is one video where I don't really agree with you…..even in terms of weight loss/gain, there are many studies suggesting that drinking milk helps people lose.maintain weight ! …. Heart and stroke foundation of Canada also recommends that people drink milk + eat vegetables to reduce cardiovascular risk……personally, I drink warm chocolate milk almost daily, and I can maintain my weight well as long as I exercise and eat reasonably (i.e. I don't see 100lb gain in a year like you suggested) LOLLLLÂ
Since a comment lied about Harvard supposedly not including dairy in their recommendations, the reader may be interested to know that Harvard still uses a standard textbook of nutrition to teach the facts about dairy to its students: that dairy is highly effective at providing calcium, protein and other nutrients to humans, and that it is perfectly safe.
This anti-dairy activist is amazingly out of touch with reality. Ask any Dietitian about this, and they'll let you know that dairy products are recommended by all authorities in nutrition, since they are not only safe, but rich in calcium and other nutrients.
Isn't it ironic how his calm tone can be so irritating?
It is especially irksome that this video, made by someone who claims to be a physician, would be so woefully out of touch with reality. To be a militant vegan is one thing, and to want to stop people from using animals for their uses because of that is consistent, if misguided, but to lie about dairy safety & effectiveness is quite wrong. Milk does not cause cancer, does not have pus in it, and hardly takes calcium out of our bones, but provides it FOR our bones better than almost any other food
My September, 2012, "Present Knowledge in Nutrition," by Erdman et al, like all current textbooks, tells us that dairy products are perfectly safe & the best food source for calcium, especially for growing kids who both need a lot of calcium and don't want to eat 9.2 servings of bok choy to get it. Or 13 servings of kale, or 18 servings of broccoli.
The astute reader will be interested what all textbooks of nutrition used by all colleges around the world say about dairy safety & effectiveness: dairy is perfectly safe & highly effective at providing nutrients for us, especially calcium, since only 4 servings provide the RDA thereof for kids, while no realistic plant source can do so. Bok choy requires 9.2 servings, kale: 13 & broccoli: 18, so we need either dairy or supplements (or the occasional dose of sardines).
Since an uneducated twit has tried to slander me by saying I have some connection with the dairy industry, I must repeat, yet again, that the only "connection" I have with the dairy industry is that I have consumed milk & other dairy products for over 60 years without problems, and have taught nutrition, physiology, biology & related subjects in college, so I know what authoritative informaiton sources say about dairy safety & effectiveness. This video is biased & should be ignored.
Not that there is the slightest problem with supplements and/or fortified foods, but it is completely wrong to lie about the safety and effectiveness of dairy products. We have uneducated twits commenting on this video about "veggies having more calcium than dairy," but that only illustrates how ignorant & mis-informed they are, probably by anti-dairy activist videos like this one. Check with a Dietician, or a teacher of nutrition in college, like myself, and learn from trustworthy sources.
Note, dear reader, that all current textbooks of nutrition, physiology and biology attest to the safety and high effectiveness of dairy products in providing nutrients for us, especially calcium, as only 4 servings provide the RDA thereof for kids & older adults, while NO realistic plant source can provide that RDA in less than 9.2 servings (bok choy). Kale requires 13 servings, and broccoli: 18, so it is either dairy or supplements to get the RDA of calcium.
WOW all you say is a joke… please stop trying to misinform people SHAME ON YOU… You are saying you cannot get enough calcium from plants, thats completely false:
Before America was "discovered" there were people living here, with NO cows and thus NO DAIRY… where they got their calcium??? yes PLANTS
Also the most healthiest populations are dairy free ei OKINAWA…just reseach
As I posted earlier the best source for calcium is not milk… the helthiest populations have no dairy on their diets go figure
Also you can buy a handful of almonds, soak them overnight and the next day place them in the blender with plenty of watter and the sweetener of your choice… That way you will have a much better alternative and its even cheaper than milk, oh and infinitely healthier
First of all you do not need as much calcium from vegies because that calcium is easier to assimilate than say dairy…. Also the populations with the most longetivity and health eat very little meat and no dairy, just reseach the okinawa diet and their health
Hi there, I just visited your channel and it seems all you do is comment on videos about where it is shown the real face of dairy products… I hope what they pay you for this is enogh to counteract this shameful behavior
Not that there is any problem with supplements or fortified foods, but it is wrong to lie about dairy product safety or effectiveness, and to confuse less educated people, especially mothers of growing kids, who need 1,200-1,300mg of calcium/day. No plant source can provide that much calcium in reasonable amounts. Milk does not cause cancer, does not have pus in it, and does not take calcium out of our bones, as some activist videos say to push their militant agenda.
