Milk is NOT a Basic Food Group

Milk is NOT a Basic Food Group.
Dairy is NOT a nutritional classification.
These are industrial food products.


During my entire grammar school career I was told that there were four basic food groups: 1. Milk, 2. Grains, 3. Meat, 4. Fruits and Vegetables.   These are NOT essential nutritional groups.   These are different food product industries.


WE WERE LIED TO.


Here is how food is classified: Plant or Animal.  There are three macro nutrients in food: Fat, Protein, Carbohydrate.  These macro nutrients have calories.  They also have dietary fiber, or not.  There are Vitamins and Minerals.  There are food additives, organic food, and GMO's.


There are NOT four basic food groups,
Milk is NOT a Basic Food Group.
Cheese is NOT a dietary necessity.


In fact, there is some evidence to suggest that juvenile onset diabetes may be caused by feeding infants cows milk; instead of human breast milk.  The child's body develops antigens against the milk proteins.   Years later, these antigens will cause an attack on the child's own body after it has grown older.


Dairy is NOT a vital nutrient.
Milk is NOT a Basic Food Group.
It never was.

Only drink water.


A friend of mine drank milk every day.  He loved milk but was overweight.   After suffering knee problems, he changed his diet and started drinking water instead of milk.  He quit drinking milk altogether.  Eventually he lost one hundred pounds and he is a changed person.  He looks great.  He attributes the weight loss to diet modification and drinking water instead of milk.


Milk is NOT a Basic Food Group

Only drink water.
