Title: Milk I'm wondering if fat free soy milk is better for you than skim milk? Why? Name: amanda Date: Mar. 17th, 2002 Title: Re: Milk This is really a great question. I drink fat free soy milk because I am lactose intolerant and cannot drink cow's milk. The calories/calcium content is about the same, however soy milk offers the benefits of soy (isoflavones) which have been shown to have incredible benefits, especially for women in helping to protect against breast cancer. Plus, (and this is just my opinion) cows are fed a lot of anti-biotics and steroids to stay healthy and produce more. Personally, I'd rather not drink milk that comes from something that has been fed like that. Most soy milk that you buy is produced from non-GMO soybeans. Non-GMO means not genetically modified. It is also a matter of taste. The fat-free vanilla soy milk is actually quite tasty. My 15 month old daughter even likes it. She, too, cannot tolerate cow's milk. Hope this helps! Best of Health!

It is well known that cattle are fed this way. Patti Name: Patti Date: Mar. 17th, 2002 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | |
