I don’t know if it’s a marketing gimmick, but I remember seeing a TV commercial that says studies prove that two glasses a day of milk help a person stay lean. Has anyone else seen this, or come across this ‘study’.
For the life of me I can’t remember then the URL they referenced.

5 donuts a day will help you stay lean so long as you stay below your reguired calories. Just as grilled chicken and vegetables will make you gain weight if you go over your daily requirements.
a lot of evidence? shows that calcium improves physique. Ofcourse thats probably only true if you are deficient, duh.
and most people tend to be deficient of just about everything these days, so we pop multi vitamins.

Geez, I never thought of that.
I dont know about staying lean, as its got sugar, and its high on the insulin index.
Whole milk is great for bulking, though.

And here I thought it was about caloric intake and the amount of calories you burn daily.

I’m curious to read the study to see what it’s based on. Why is this such a problem for some people?
Like I already said, seems like a gimmick to market milk.
Good quality calcium and protein yes its good food swap out that milk in the average diet for there usual crap twice a day and hell yes it will help.
Lonnie Lowery Has written lately on the benefits of dairy in the diet. check out some of his articles.

the insulin index is crap. The day milk, potatoes and a lot of fruits are considered ‘bad’ is the day I stop[ considering it credible. Mix a potato with cottage cheese and its a great snack. Fruit and its phytos are worth the excgange of a supposed high insulin index. Milk is a freakin’ complete food and a great one for most people. And many studies show the value of calcium w/r/t weight loss.
There’s a study out that showed calcium had an effect, but that dairy calcium had more of an effect.

However, there is another study out there showing that glutamine seems to increase the amount of fat burned during the post prandrial time period.

My conjecture is that dairy calcium combines the benefit of calcium with a high glutamine protein – of course the dairy association probably isn’t going to connect the dots for us.
You’ve been watching too many of those milk commercials.
“Drink four glasses of milk a day to stay healthy and thin!”
Come on now!
I smell money.
