One of the myths of eating a vegan diet is, "If you don't drink milk or
eat dairy you can't get enough calcium in your diet and you will suffer
from more bone fractures, plus, women will be at higher risk of
Osteoporosis"
I'm going to keep this one short as I'm just going t recommend that you read an article that I came across today.
The article is on the "Reboot With Joe" web site and poses the question of whether or not we need to drink the USDA recommended 3 glasses of milk a day. (Spoiler Alert: We Don't)
I myself haven't touched milk in years. Strangely, I suddenly became lactose intolerant several years ago. It came on me suddenly and from out of nowhere; just one day milk started making me sick. I have added high calcium foods to my diet to compensate for not being able to drink milk and I haven't suffered at all.
Here is a link to the article, it's a good read. The article contains links to related information.
