Let's compare 100-gram portions (3.5 ounces) of soymilk vs. cow's milk:
Cow's milk has 61 calories. Soymilk has 33 calories.
Cow's milk contains 3.34 grams of fat. Soymilk contains 1.91 grams of fat.
Cow's milk has 14 milligrams of cholesterol and no dietary fiber. Soymilk contains 1.3 grams of fiber and has zero cholesterol.
Cow's milk contains a full range of amino acids. Soymilk also contains a full range of amino acids. Both contain plenty of protein. Cow's milk actually has one- half gram more protein than the 100-gram portion of soymilk.
As for the nine essential amino acids in protein necessary for sustaining life, cow's milk and soy milk contain nearly identical amounts, but cow's milk does win this one by a whisker, containing a mere one-fifth of a gram more essential amino acids than the soy. That may be a hollow victory for milk lovers because one of the nine essential amino acids is methionine. Cow's milk contains more than twice as much methionine as does soymilk. The center atom of methionine is sulfur. Too much animal protein creates an acid condition in the blood which the body must neutralize by taking calcium from the bones. . Nations eating the most animal protein have the highest rates of osteoporosis.

Cow milk is for baby cows. Can you imagine if we sold human milk to cows to drink? What would happen to them? They would have the wrong enzymes and hormones in their systems. And they would get very sick.
This is why humans really should not consume milk other than their own mother's milk. Once that is done, they can use soy or rice.

I like it, but real milk gives me the shits. It also creates mucous, and acne. Soy milk is very agreeable to me, it makes me feel good. I had a girlfriend who drank it every day for three months, and I swear her breasts doubled in size!! If you're a girl, that's worth considering, if you want bigger breasts that is. bigger is not always better.

It's a milk squeezed out of soybeans. It taste like crap if you ask me, and you did. It's mainly for persons that are lactose intolerant and can't drink real milk.
