Best Answer

Whole milk (4-5% fat) is good for children 1-2 years old. The fat in the milk is good for brain development. (Babies under one year of age should not drink cow's milk - they may develop Allergies to it.) After age two, it's OK to wean down to lower fat milk. But milk alone, regardless of how fresh it is, or what kind of mammal it comes from, is not sufficient as a sole source of nutrition for a 2-year-old! By the age of two, toddlers should be offered a wide variety of healthy foods. Pasteurized cow's milk is good - it has a much longer shelf life than unpasteurized milk, because the process of pasteurization kills the bacteria in the milk, yet it does not diminish the nutritional value.

Is it true the more milk you drink the stronger and healthier you get?

well it really depends, i don't believe that it makes you stronger, but it does have important calcium in it that your body needs. You can get that calcium in other foods though. Also every-body's blood type is different. I am blood type A, and so milk and dairy stuff is not good for me. So i drink soy milk when I need it. You should find out what blood type you are before you go and start drinking a lot of milk, and if you are going to start drinking more milk, I strongly recommend that you get organic milk.
