I did a search and found the following article: Myth 30: Lots of Milk Builds Strong Bones / Mommy Myth Buster
It's no surprise to me but I thought it might be interesting for those who have bought into the idea that dairy builds strong bones. The reason I did the search is because I was wondering if the dairy industry advertises that milk builds strong bones. I don't think they do because if they did, I believe the FTC would get after them. But they don't have to because many people assume that milk builds strong bones when they advertise that milk is rich in calcium. See if you can find any dairy products advertised as "builds strong bones". I don't think it exists. And if it does exist, I'll call the FTC myself. ![]() The book: "Building Bone Vitality" by Amy Lanou and Michael Castleman. (I haven't read it yet) |

No. I am a mother who has always supported milk for youngsters. I was kidding a little.

It's a chocolate powder that you add to milk to make chocolate milk.

How did you make up your mind that milk would build strong bones? Back when you were raising kids, before the internet, didn't you primarily get your information from advertising?

[QUOTE=Villages PL;631471]I'm not familiar with this product. Is it a dairy product? What the heck is "Powder Flavored Milk Additive"? Does it have a disclaimer on the back label?
Some vitamins make similar claims and then have a disclaimer that says it was not approved by the FDA[/QUOTE] The FDA does not have any jurisdiction over vitamins... I think this disclaimer is on many if not all vitamin bottles. "The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) does not have any role in regulating supplements because supplements are neither "food" nor "drug."
