Consider the elephant. It is a mammal as we are. It has strong weight bearing bones and great physical strength and yet does not need to drink another animal's milk later in life does it?
There is a lot of propaganda from the meat and dairy industry promoting the supposed health benefits of their products. There is a lot of money involved and they employ advertising agencies etc.
Drinking milk is not necessary for strong and healthy bones. Just because a practice has gone on for generations does not take away from the fact that it is unnatural and unnecessary to drink another animal's milk which is designed to support their own offspring when they are too young to take in solid food.
