There is a growing controversy surrounding this farm fresh produce. You'd wonder how one could find error in such a pure white, clean looking, and great tasting drink. Well, the issues against milk are still there and so many people especially bodybuilders have chosen to take the non-milky way. If you believe everything you read, then you should probably read from reliable sources or even yet stop reading all together! Imagine what would happen if the news papers ran a story about how you burnt down a house with people inside. What they may forget to mention is that it was 25 years ago and that the house was a doll house that caught fire accidentally and burnt Barbie and ken in the process!
This "minor" detail can cost you friends and even your job. The same thing happens with milk critics. They'll tell you of the many bacteria and micro-organisms that you can get from milk. What they won't tell you is that you probably need to suckle the milk directly from the cow's teats for you to get some of them. All you have to do is simply boil your milk or drink treated milk. Your nutritionist will tell you not to drink milk because it has a high fat content, what he may fail to mention alongside that statement is that milk is also rich in other things apart from fat. We will briefly look at these other things then you can decide for yourself whether or not you will be a milkaholic.
1.Protein
Milk is rich in protein, the number one macro nutrient that bodybuilders need in order for them to build more muscles. It contains both casein and whey and just incase you didn't know, whey is the number one protein source with the highest Biological Value. For proteins, the higher the BV the better because this means that it will be absorbed, retained and used by the body in large amounts.
2. Calcium
Milk is the best source of calcium you can get. Calcium is especially important to bodybuilders as it helps them have stronger bones. The last deficiency you want is a calcium deficiency that will make you break your bones just after 5 minutes of warm up! Calcium also takes part in the relaxation and contraction of your muscles.
3. Vitamins A and D
Vitamin A is responsible for the synthesis of the much needed macro nutrient called protein! This means that not only is milk rich in protein but it also goes an extra mile and actually helps the body synthesis some more of it on its own. Glycogen, the form in which energy is stored, is also synthesized by the help of vitamin A. vitamin on the other hand helps your body to absorb calcium. This means that if you are on calcium supplements but you have a vitamin D deficiency, all that calcium won't be absorbed. It also helps in the absorption of phosphorus which produces high energy molecules.
The next time you're in the grocery store, pick a gallon of milk. Dane Fletcher is the world-wide authority on training, nutrition, and supplements. To build muscle fast, he recommends the world class steroid alternatives from GetAnabolics.com instead of illegal anabolics.
