Depends...while it is certainly good that the cows haven't been given hormones or antibiotics, is the milk still pasteurized or homogenized? These processes are detrimental to milk.

If milk is bad due to lots of hormones, antibiotics and badly feeding the cows, I understand Whey protein powder is JUST AS BAD. Whey is done from cheese, cheese is done from milk, milk comes for cows injected with massive amounts of hormones and antibiotics.... If the main arguments against milk are the hormones and antibiotics, I find it no different than whey protein powder.. if lactose is the issue that's something else.
Does anybody have any information on the processing of whey with regards to the crap that cows get fed? It may be possible that due to the filtration process , they whey we get may be safe, remember half the problem is the makeup of milk itself, its designed for cows, not humans, would you drink tigers milk or elephant milk? The second problem with milk is the modern treatment (quite literally) of dairy cows, how this affects our whey is something that i have never seen adressed.
Personally i dont drink milk, but its debateable whether its had any difference to my health or my physique. but i still have shit loads of whey
I am with you Cavless wonder,for years my ass been stinkin bad,people ask me"how do you do that?",i get a laugh out of it,but none the less,used to drink 5 gallons a week(skim)no joke...i will start doing water with protien shake,and cut back to 2-3 servings a day of milk,scairy how this convinced me.wonder if i need that intestine cleansing program thing now?
I think I'm going to make the switch, too. I've noticed that when drinking milk with a meal, I often feel too full to eat my next meal on time. When mixing my shakes with skim milk, I also have a serious gas problem.....and yes, it's BAD.
