My mom couldn't stand the taste of milk either. She didn't get enough calcium as a result, for a lifetime.
Makes me wonder how Donny does it? When mom got old her bones were so brittle they'd turned to powder, literally. So said the doctors when they had to operate on one of her shoulders. I shudder at the thought.
I have no problem drinking milk or eating dairy products. Plus take a calcium supp daily, with Vit D. Will it be enough to stave off the effects of aging and osteoporosis? I hope so.
Some swear they can get enough calcium from non-dairy sources, without taking a supplement. I don't believe that's possible, depending on how much the body needs vs what we digest through our food intake.
Broccoli only has trace calcium, for example.
Despite my regular consumption of milk and dairy my doctor ordered me to take a calcium supplement with D because I was still not getting enough calcium to prevent bone loss.
Today they have these bone density scans to put us through as part of a routine physical exam. If not for that, I wouldn't have known I still wasn't getting "enough" as part of my regular diet.
