This is false propaganda promoted by the Dairy Industry.

It is fallacious reasoning to think that humans still need milk once they acquire their teeth, they do not.

Every female mammal develops breast milk once they become pregnant, designed exclusively by nature for their particular offspring, why in the world would we steal milk from another species to give to human babies or adults?

The idea is absurd, Cows Milk is for calves, Elephant Milk is for baby elephants, Skunk Milk is for baby skunks and Human Milk is for human babies, each specific Mammal's milk is intended for the baby of that particular animal, our size shape and requirements are entirely different from one another and not interchangeable.

All of our vitamins and minerals can and should be gotten from fruits and veggies.

Harvard School of Public Health disagrees with the Dairy Industry recommendation;

To sell more milk. If you want to know the real deal about vitamin D check out the Weston a Price Foundation http://www.westonaprice.org/basicnutrition/vitamindmiracle.html

But yes more Vit D than the RDA is safe.

The only reason I see for the change is that Big Pharma now has a PRESCRIPTION for vitamin D they want to peddle. Instead, they should tell parents to get their kids OUTSIDE! It's FREE! It's so sad that we are becoming fodder for Big Pharma products.

Let them run outdoors like fools, the way kids used to. Vitamin D production is solved, and probably the roots of other issues.

Probably to make up for the damage their overly aggressive, damaging, yet profitable vaccine schedule has done.

Prior to vaccine liability protections 0 vaccines given before age 5
after liability protection 36 before the age of 5
