Milk

[Spiderman]

I have almost no appetite, and there are days like today where all I really consume is lots of milk and tea. I figure a baby can survive off Milk just fine, why not adults?

Could a person survive relatively long off nothing but milk?

No. Cow's milk lacks the necessary nutrients to survive, even for a baby.

Bowie lived on milk and red peppers for a time. It wasn't a happy time.

I'm fairly sure that the nutritional needs of infants and adults are pretty different. Even if they weren't, the milk of a different species wouldn't meet them, anyway.

This is interesting because the milk of another species maybe could if it were taken directly. In humans at least the milk composition changes if baby is ill etc. It's really awesome. So other animals might do this to suit species. Who knows?

There arent too many days where all I drink is milk. However, I've been known to go days where I'm just drinking milk and tea until the evening. I have no appetite in the morning, and don't usually have an appetite until evening or night.

Good point. Mothers of different species sometimes nurse babies of another.

Could an adult survive off of just breast milk? ....

Humans are naturally lactose intolerant after weening of their mother's or wet nurses teat.

Although milk is a good source of protein, calcium and vitamin D, other food sources also provide these nutrients. What's more, there's no evidence that drinkingmilk reduces bone fractures, and drinking too much can lead to anemia and may contribute to obesity, experts now say.Jan 25, 2015

I'd like to know why you think this is funny and why breast milk is now some kind of fetish and seen as abnormal, when drinking cow milk is much less normal?

I met a man who was told by the doctors to die very soon.

He started to do pranayama

He started a new diet: 1.5 liter of milk + 1.5 liter of grape juice. He did it already for ca. 2 years when I met him; health improved a lot

Locusts are a good source of protein, honey is energy.

If there is one thing that I won't tolerate, it's lactose!

No, with milk alone, drinking over 5 or 6 pints a day will satisfy your basic energy requirements. But man cannot live on energy alone, after a month or so you health would begin to deteriorate.

I don't know of any adult who regularly drinks breast milk, but it does seem to me like something kinky to once try if this opportunity were able to arise. I'd be at least curious about how it tastes compared to store bought skim milk.

I just fail to understand how it's kinky. Then again, I'm not into breasts, I don't have any arousal if mine are touched, and drinking breast milk is 100% normal. So it makes no sense to me.

In a somewhat related question to milk.... Does anybody know what the point is for male nipples?

 

[ChristineM]

Humans are naturally lactose intolerant

Tolerance of lactose in humans is a demonstration of evolution. Only a few thousand years ago humans literally couldn't stomach milk

Humans, male and female are cast from the same genetic material. Changes for gender occur after the first few weeks of pregnancy. By then you got 'em and are stuck with 'em
