Is 3,25% milk really that much worse for your health?

It's the weird section of GAF that also says eating fruits aren't good for you, too

Give me full fat or give me full death.
2% is meh and skim is straight up water with a single drop of milk in it. Drinking this crap doesn't even make you feel satiated.

Fat in milk is dependent on breed and diet. For example, in warmer months, cows take in more water, which lowers the fat content.
Wut.

I was thinking "struggle" as in "pathetic-looking", but I guess I used it wrong.
Umh what? Your link confirm what i was saying , but thanks for linking it anyway i guess.

My bad. I totally misread your original post.
Recent findings about drinking full fat milk is linked to lower chance of diabetes than drinking skim milk and can help you lose weight. Obviously everything in moderation.

Fat in milk is good for you as are the protein and other nutrients. The sugar (lactose) might not work for your if you lack the enzyme to break it down like many adults do.
Animal fat is good for you to consume and does not raise small denser LDL in your blood. Cholesterol is essential for your body. It does not cause heart disease. Small and denser Low Density Lipoprotein and inflammation causes heart disease.
You've been fed a pack of BS for years. Eat your animal fats and stop consuming processed vegetable fats like corn, palm and canola oils. Those processed vegetable fats hardens your arteries and make you prone to inflammation.

Screw your whole milk. Ever drank half and half like a real man?
Oh, sorry. I see how the mix up happened. He referred to the study negatively (there is no study that proves x) and you went "well, here is one! I thought you were trying to dispute his claim.

You should try Lactose free milk instead. Almond production sucks up too much water and it sucks when California, the major producer, is in drought.

I think whole milk is a bit too rich for regular drinking. For me, a bowl of cereal with whole milk is like dessert. It tastes amazing but heavy. Even something like corn flakes.
Being raised on 1%, these days I actually prefer 2% to all. I've actually increased my milk intake due to realizing how well balanced 2% is. I like using it in cold brew coffee.

lol, i like the term "struggle milk" but really, everytime i have to use the 1,5 milk from my gf instead of my 3,5 for my cereals, it just tastes like water with some drops of milk.

Full whipping cream is for sauces. Whole milk is what would be used by default when you order a latte at starbucks. We're talking 3.25% milk in your latte vs. 35% cream in your pasta sauce.

Olive oil (non extra-virgin), maybe lard. I don't think there are many options, that's why baking and steaming are healthier cooking methods.
I use avocado oil. Smoke point is over 500 degrees.
Are you really that ignorant of the rest of the world?

Cow's milk isn't good for human consumption, period. If you are worried I suggest switching to a plant-based milk. Free of cholesterol and any animal fats.
Animal fats consumed in large quantities and in general is not good for human health. It's brought up time and time again - if anyone is interested, research the difference between animal & plant fats. Fat from cow's milk is not the same as the healthy fats from coconuts or cashews. The real killer is processed fats - whether derived from animal or plant - are a real problem for the human body.

Junior, please.
1% is the only milk for me, all others just taste wrong. I drink at least a pint a day.

I thought you were trying to say that whole milk does not always match what the cows produce. I was agreeing. I see now you meant that whole milk being defined as 3.25% is a new concept to you.

Is this like full milk in the US? Do we know what the fat percentage of full milk is?
Also 2% for life. Full milk makes me sick.

When your sandwiches are so devoid of content, you've got to get that protein somewhere.
No way.
You drink skimmed milk with your cereal? Isn't it just very sweet if you do?
