Those rates of Osteo stem directly from the fact that milk is usually pasteurized to death and the calcium, while it is still in the milk , is damaged, and can no longer do its job.
Within one year of switching to raw milk, I found that my bone density was immensely improved.

Haven't read all replies and not taken survey yet, though I will. I live in Denmark, which I believe is the worlds #1 milk and dairy country per capita. A lot of cows here. Anyway, milk is really pushed here as good, but I also believe that the countries that drink the most milk have the HIGHEST rate of osteoporosis. Which is ironic, but may be due to the excess calcium causing calcium to actually be leaked from the bones.Â

Ok - just took it. All was OK, except the last item made no sense - "In grade school"? What does that mean? Media - news - tv - also made no sense, because I would not automatically trust news from TV networks, but might get information from various online sites - but does that count as Media in your questionaire? What about family or friends, I would trust their information more than my parents. (Not that I don't love my parents, just that I don't think their knowledge of milk is really up to date).Â
