Drinking milk will help you in later stages in life

A recent study from Purdue University reveals that dairy products may be better than ‘pills’ or ‘foods fortified with calcium carbonate’ for maintaining strong bones.

The test subject were rats where they were fed non-fat dry milk and another batch of rats fed a diet with calcium carbonate.

Those on non-fat dry milk had longer and wider bones than those not on it.

The ten week study basically measures bone structure, density and length for difference.

So drink up your milk, as milk was found to be superior for strong bones.

The researchers found that dairy intake also equated to strong bones later in life, when compared to calcium carbonate, making an emphasis on dairy intake especially important while bones are growing.
