- Most people think they have to drink a large amount of milk and eat dairy products to get the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of calcium into their diet. This is a huge myth and can sometimes be very damaging to a person’s health.
- Cow’s milk does provide a person with nutrients such as. protein, fat, carbohydrates, and calcium. However, humans can get these same nutritional factors from healthful food. The amount of calcium a human absorbs drinking a glass of milk is only 32 percent compared to healthful foods such as:
Based on One Cup
Kale = 40.9%
Broccoli = 52.6%
Brussels Sprouts = 63.8%
Turnip Greens = 51.6%
Orange Juice = 37%
