Is drinking milk essential for building strong bones? | Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter
Got milk? When it comes to building strong bones, you shouldn’t just stick to the dairy aisle—but many people are starting to skip it all together, with a demonic narrative evolving around milk in recent years. So which should we believe?
