Milk,s importance?

important source of calcium... It can prevent a lot of diseases for infants... It could also possibly prevent osteoporosis to the elderly

It is a source of nutrients like vitamins and minerals that we need for our bodies' processes

I think its important to have milk in your diet, but i don't think everyone needs alot of milk. As long as we all eat healthily and a variety of food types it isn't essential. Young babies and children up until they have enough food in a day to have a healthy diet it is essential. Pregnant women should also have some milk in their diet to help their unborn baby(s) develop well. Having too much milk can also cause problems, which is the same with everything. Its ok to eat sweet foods and greasy foods, aslong as you dont have your whole diet full of those sorts of foods. ~Joeys wife

not much..you never see a calf drink from its mother after he grows up..same as the human..get your calcium in other forms milk causes mucus and othe bad things

for kids its important but for adults..no..as long as they get plenty of calcium (sp) in their diet..

milk & dairy products are primary sources of calcium. almost every vitamins & mineral are contain in milk. so we must keep one glass of milk in our daily food list.

Dairy products are one of the four food groups, the others being meat/eggs and certain alternatives, fruits and vegetables, and grains. If one doesn't drink chose to drink milk, and even if one does, it's important to consume products that are made with milk, on a daily basis.

It's an important source of calcium both when we are children and growing and needing it for strong teeth and bones and when we are older when we are less able to absorb calcium; it can help prevent illnesses like osteoporosis the brittle bone disease.
