Cow milk is not nutritious for humans....where did you get this propaganda from??

Aside from non-fortified vitamins like A and the B's (some D) and proteins milk contains calcium, phosphorous, potassium and selenium. It's not propaganda Ben, it's basic chemistry.
Also, some dietitians argue that in some cases, depending on the person's habits, milk fats help people feel full faster during a meal and therefore they eat less food in one sitting.

If you're not lactose intolerant, milk is pretty damn nutritious. And for whatever it's worth , lactose intolerance is not limited to black people. I'm about as white as you can be, and I'm kinda mildly lactose-intolerant, but my brother can't even drink normal milk.
Uh, hundreds of years of consumption in the Western World? 100s of recipes where it's needed if not the main ingredient?
Is it just Cow milk or all animal milk he's ignorant of?
The idiocy of the YouTube vid is that it claims we're mutants and adapted to cows milk, this may even be true as there certainly was a time we didn't consume it,,, or lettuce,, apples,, grapes,, etc. Things change.
Milk from non-humans won't properly feed a human infant without some sort of modification, and in some cases are missing vital nutrients entirely. That doesn't mean that there's *no* nutritional benefit from including it as part of a varied diet. By that standard, there's no such thing as food, really.
Apparently you can, at least in theory, survive indefinitely on nothing but whole milk and potatoes and a little salt, provided you cooked the potatoes in a way that doesn't destroy much of the vitamin C. Probably wouldn't be the healthiest diet though.
I drink cow's milk. What are you gonna do about it?
I somehow doubt you've got the strength to put any force behind any kind of movement, let alone raise your foot to so much as tickle my bollocks, least of all kick me there.
Fermentation is one way of modifying milk to make it easier to digest by adult humans (since it breaks down the lactose); yogurt and kefir are examples of this.
By the way, lactase persistence (the gene found mainly in Europe that alt-rightists love to talk about) is not the same thing as lactose tolerance. People with the right gut flora can still digest lactose and therefore milk, even if they don't have the gene for lactase persistence. Conversely it's possible to have the gene and still be lactose intolerant, if you have the WRONG gut flora or there is some other problem with your digestive system.
Actually, for many, it isn't nutritious. In fact, not having cow-herding ancestry increases your chances of being lactose intolerant, or even allergic to milk, which is why black people are more likely to be lactose intolerant than whites. But your video is wackadoodle, so your opinion is invalidated.
Also, they have lactose-free milk, praise White Jeebus, so I can eat cereal again!
Google the Food Pyramid, dumbfuck. Or better yet, go into a classroom. Every elementary school classroom I went into when I was of that age had a poster tacked to the wall that explained how many servings of each food group a person should consume daily, dairy included, for optimum health. Milk and other dairy products were always at the pointy tip of the pyramid.
You know, the part that looks the most like your head.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
