Question

and im over twenty

Answer 1

i hate milk but love cheese and yogurt! i just take calcium supplements !

Answer 2

Well, milk has Vitamin D as you already know. Vitamin D helps prevent bone loss and certain diseases that will cause that. Also, it has calcium. Calcium also does an important roll in that, and other things. You should really drink milk, if you dont like it???? Try something else, like chocolate milk, soy milk, theres lots!

Answer 3

You don't need milk to get your calcium. In fact I encourage people not to drink milk due to the levels of "puss" the fda allows, along with other nasty things in it. HOWEVER: you do need calcium for strong bones and teeth as you age. No matter that you're over 20, take a multi vitamin and a calcium supplement. You REALLY need it to stay healthy.

Answer 4

Osteoporosis could eventually become an issue, but if you don't like milk and don't get your required amount of calcium from other foods like cheese and yogurt, you could just take a supplement.

Just check with your doctor to see what he/she would recommend. Some brands may be better than others.

Answer 5

Not unless you don't eat any dairy products. Your body still needs lots of Calcium, especially while you are pregnant. However Calcium does little good without Vitamin D. You can take supplements for both, but its always better to consume vitamins and minerals naturally.

Answer 6

Over twenty your digestive system won't do diddly with milk. Make a Yorkshire pudding instead.

Answer 7

No, just make sure you are getting calcium from other sources, if you eat no dairy, take a supplement and of course speak to your doctor.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Not neccesarily, but I would take a calcium supplement to make sure that your bones stay strong.

Answer 10
