Milk And Wine
Do you still drink milk? I know a lot of people that have totally stopped drinking milk. While I have long stopped drinking milk myself, I still get my milk from adding a good amount into my coffee everyday. I just make sure I go for low fat (Skinny Cow is my brand), but I have to admit, I sure miss the good taste of full milk. And that is why, on top of the milk added into my freshly brewed coffee everyday, I add a teaspoon of cream. In short, I cheat.
Seriously, there are benefits of incorporating dairy products into our diet. One of which is protection against colon cancer. In fact, 800 milligrams of calcium per day as experts say, can cut ones risk of colon cancer by 25 percent. Sure, we can also get the requirement from supplements but when we get it from food, even if we only get as little as 400 milligrams per day, the payoff is better.
Just like wine, if taken in moderation, we also get good benefits from drinking. It is good for heart health they say. So the concerned me have started looking into wine clubs so that I can get them delivered in my door and avail of the wine of the month too. This for sure takes the guesswork from picking good bottles at the liquor store. Lesser trip to the store means more time for something else.

I have been drinking milk powder or rather my mother has been making us drink milk powder even since we were young … that will be coming to 33 years already. I remember I used to hate drinking milk powder back then. However, I have realised how good it is for me. Through my years of growing up, I have very rarely sprained my ankles when I fell down and I have strong bones.

LOL Milk and wine … I seriously thought this post was going to be about drinking milk and wine at the same time. I thought you might have been on to a new type of drink. LOL
Not only does milk give us a good dose of Calcium, but in Canada and the US and likely elsewhere milk is fortified with Vitamin D. Since most of us protect ourselves from the sun and don’t eat foods that contain a lot of vitamin D, vitamin D deficiency is on the rise. So there’s another reason to drink a glass of milk or two, and or add a generous helping to our cereal and coffee/tea.
I was just diagnosed with Vitamin D deficiency (malabsorption related since I have Crohn’s Disease)so I’m brushing up on sources of Vitamin D.
They also say a diet high in calcium (and vitamin d) can help you lose weight. So drinking milk might help shed pounds.
I also saw something on the news recently that said we can have up to two glasses of wine a DAY for better health. it’s good for the heart, but I seem to remember the news story saying it might help the brain as well. I’m not sure about the last fact though.

@ BK
I love milk powder too. I n fact, I used to eat them not drink. yum!
@ Tricia
thanks for sharing your thoughts. I wonder about milk helping one shed off weight though. That would be nice to try.
and two glasses of wine? I have high blood pressure so I won’t even dare. I drink red wine for the benefits, but I love white more.
Oh boy, I cannot imagine eating milk powder.
@ BK
for some reason, the taste of milk powder appealed to me. just got some wacky taste bud I guess.
