okay so I've been doing some research as well as taking classes on nutrition. its been discussed that low fat milk is a good lean protein source and full of vitamins.

"Milk contains the water soluble vitamins thiamin (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), vitamin B12 (cobalamin), vitamin C, and folate. Milk is a good source of thiamin, riboflavin and vitamin B12 . Milk contains small amounts of niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin C, and folate and is not considered a major source of these vitamins in the diet.
Milk contains the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. The content level of fat soluble vitamins in dairy products depends on the fat content of the product. Reduced fat (2% fat), lowfat (1% fat), and skim milk must be fortified with vitamin A to be nutritionally equivalent to whole milk. Fortification of all milk with vitamin D is voluntary. Milk contains small amounts of vitamins E and K and is not considered a major source of these vitamins in the diet."
it seems like a lot of people are misinformed and stay away from milk, possibly because of the "bloated" look that dairy can give.
my question is, is this because of the lactose? lactose is the main source of carbs (sugars) in milk.
apparently only 30% of grown adults can process and break down lactose, thus 70% of us experience some form of lactose intolerance. there are varying degrees of this which would cause the bloat, am i right?
so when it comes down to it, is milk not a good source of protein (mix of casein and whey) as well as vitamins? thus it would be a good recommendation for anyone trying to build muscle.
lets have a discussion!
