Of course we can live without milk.
Your body is really amazing, it will adapt to digest best what you feed it the most.
Unfortunately, this can work against good health. The bodies of people who drink alot of soda pop adapt to receiving high concentrations of phosphates, and it gets digested and used in bone tissue where phosphorus is normally used, and the result is osteoporosis.
If you eat right and take high-quality vitamins, you'll probably do better than if you make junk food a way of life.

We can survive without milk just fine. It is not meant to be an adult food it is meant for babies, cow babies to be specific. If you were to need milk it would be human breast milk. Humans are the only animals on the planet to consistently drink the milk of another species.

I am sure you can survive but what happens when you have a bad spill and your bones shatter because your bones are brittle. You need milk to help you maintain healthy bones. And for lactose intolerant people there is even milk made for you!!!

No, we don't. In fact, many asian people and some other people as well can't process cow milk properly, and they survive well enough without it. The condition is known as lactose intolerance, you can look it up.

No, we don't NEED milk to survive, but it is recommended, especially for women to get enough calcium in the body for your bones and teeth.

I personally hate milk---i dont remember when wasthe last time i had a glass of milk. But i do like it in cereal but i have cereal like once or twice a month----but i do eat cheese and yogurt. I know its good for our bones but i dont think its a necessity.

Adults do not need milk, per se, but they do need calcium, which can be derived from other things (e.g. leafy greens).
