i am studying vet medicicne
and i studied milk formation process in my college
i think that the nutritionist dont mean that
as milk is formed from fatiacids which produced from fermentation of feed taken by the cow
this fati acids and protein cnd glucose from live are transfered to mammary tissue through the blood

Milk defined - A whitish liquid containing proteins, fats, lactose, and various vitamins and minerals that is produced by the mammary glands of all mature female mammals after they have given birth and serves as nourishment for their young.
Blood defined - The fluid consisting of plasma, blood cells, and platelets that is circulated by the heart through the vertebrate vascular system, carrying oxygen and nutrients to and waste materials away from all body tissues.
Also dairy cows do have to have a calf to give milk just like humans. They are not milked all the time.

No way!! Milk is milk. A cow's blood is red just like ours. Your nutritionist is an idiot and shouldn't be allowed to practice or call himself a nutritionist at all.

The nutritionist is an idiot. Cow's blood looks like human blood; Milk is totally different.

The only commonality between the two is that milk is synthesized from the raw materials obtained by the mammary gland from blood. With this analogy all the physiological secretions of the body, including urine would be equated with blood.
...there are some similarities. Blood is composed of water, proteins, other organic and inorganic compounds and the red and white blood cells. Milk is primarily composed of water, protein, sugar, fat, vitamins and minerals. Thus, both blood and milk are aqueous protein solutions that, in separate ways, provide the body with essential elements.

No....I have milked cows... its the same as in humans... Milk is completely different from blood. I am surprised that any adult would believe something like that.
oh yeah, that guy is NOT a nutritionist.

If it is, it's not the red type that mammals need to survive.
The milk that comes from the nipples of a cow may be classified as a blood.. but who knows. Can you go into more detail as to why the nutrionist said that and why it's called blood?

Milk is milk. How could it be the cows blood and be called milk??? I have never heard that one myself!!! When a cow bleeds they bleed real blood, not milk. Has this person ever gone to a slaughter house??? Cows do not bleed milk???
