Nutrition expert warns: That's why you should never drink milk

Nutritionist Bodo Melnik warns against drinking milk.

• The professor even claims that milk is a kind of doping.
• Above in the video: Why it is nonsense to drink reduced-fat milk.

Whether as a remedy for sore throats or in the morning to get going: Often enough we resort to milk. The white drink is finally healthy. Or?

The nutritionist from the University of Osnabrück, Bodo Melnik, sees milk as a problem. The magazine "Vegan World" quotes the scientist: 

"Milk is not a product. Milk is a highly complex signal substance for the care of a newborn. Their signal is growth. "

This can also be observed in the animal world.

Newborn mammals ingest milk to grow. Once the animals have reached a certain level of growth, they no longer drink milk. Only humans do not stop eating milk.

Milk is like doping

The professor therefore calls for a rethink. To achieve this, he draws a radical comparison: for him, the white drink is like doping.

As soon as we drink milk, we send a signal to the body that aims for growth, explains Melnik.

Because of this aspect, milk is so important for newborns.

"Getting an adult's body to grow could be dangerous," the magazine says.

In addition, there is the so-called microRNA in milk. Melnik explains that the genetic particles are with gene regulatory effect.

Milk manipulates our genes 

In other words: Through a high and regular consumption of cow's milk, humans could manipulate their own genetics.

The research team of Melnik has not yet discovered the consequences that this has on the human body.

In addition, milk and dairy products can increase the risk of prostate cancer . For this reason too, adults should refrain from consuming milk. 

But there are also positive effects on the body. As Stiftung Warentest writes, minerals in the milk promote bone formation.

A further scientific study  has even shown that a lot of kinds of dairy products significantly reduce the risk of stroke. In addition, regular consumption of milk lowers the risk of colon and breast cancer.
