Goat milk powder for nutrient absorption
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: 3 days ago | Replies (23)Comment receiving replies
I read an article on FaceBook yesterday supporting goat milk powder for osteoporosis. I plan to start drinking goat milk rather than cow's milk. Goat milk appears to contain more calcium than cow's milk.

@pennykj Also easier on the tummy and digestive system for folks with lactose issues.
@pennykj I also just saw that on FB, will go get some and give it a go too.

@pennykj I'm still looking into this issue. I think goats milk is preferred because it's better absorbed or more digestible. This article says: "When it comes to calcium absorption from goat milk versus cow milk, the plot thickens a bit. Both milks contain similar amounts of calcium per cup (around 300mg), but goat milk might have a slight edge in the absorption department. Some studies suggest that the smaller fat globules and different protein structure in goat milk could make its calcium more bioavailable."
