Are you big and strong or are you just another faceless poster that talks about stuff?[/quote]
I’m only big to guys smaller than i am… I’m just an average Joe with some freakishly huge rear delts that make it seem like i’m hunch back if you look at me from a certain angle.
“leaftye”… The way i used “pregnancy” makes utterly no sense in this country??..lol… Well i do use the Oxford dictionary as opposed to Webster. As far as i know the definition for pregnancy is universal. Unless America has a different definition for the word, the context in which it was used makes perfect sense.
It’s hard to classify many foods as good or bad. The ugly side of food usually comes out when you eat it too frequently, or have too much in one sitting. If you want to include milk in your diet, then do so. If you have any ill effects, then back your dose quantity or frequency way down.
The test lowering effects I cannot speak of. I doubt them, until we see some followup study, but what I wrote works for just about any food. Do keep in mind that there are classes of foods (those containing similar compounds that trigger allergies or intollerances - such as lactose, xanthines or other purines, gluten, histamine, soy, nitrates, salicylates, etc. etc.) that people have issues with and that symptoms are often low grade (hardly noticeable but persistent), and this is something you have to worry about.
On a side note, I accidentally forgot a chocolate protein shake in the freezer last night (after the water was too warm initially) and when I remembered to take it out the shake had turned into a delicious ice ‘milk’. Muy bueno!
Are you serious? The protein wasn’t rancid? My the empty protein shake container that I take to my workouts starts to smell bad and rancid after a few hours. Maybe the freezing saved it?[/quote]
It was only for about an hour and a half I left it in the freezer.
I would say it’s ambivalent. Sure, milk can help a person meet their caloric and/or macro needs in a gaining-phase, but this does not necessarily make it an ideal nutritional choice, unless it were raw (organic) milk.
