We’ve said it before and we will say it again: the way we treat animals on this planet is truly heartbreaking. It may seem easier to simply turn a blind eye to the horrors being enacted upon these creatures, but ignorance is never the answer. When it comes to raising animals for slaughter — something that happens to billions of animals every single year — the word ‘terrifying’ is an understatement. Most people don’t even want to know about the conditions in which their meat is raised, but it is the responsibility of each and every one of us to stay informed. Shedding more light on our modern day food industry can help change this system and encourage others to seek healthier and more environmentally friendly options.
Below is a video done by Erin Janus, an animal and environmental activist who is raising awareness on multiple issues. In her video she brings up some great points about the modern day dairy industry, and below the video you will find even more little-known facts about milk and its production.

Does milk really do a body good? Science is currently examining that question now more than ever before. Not much time has passed since human beings started to pasteurize their milk, and since then, research has shown that feeding cow’s milk to human infants, as well as adults, might not be the healthiest thing.
For example, a giant study that was published in the British Medical Journal a couple of years ago made some noise after researchers concluded that a high intake of milk from a cow was associated with higher mortality in both women and men. Although they mention that a cautious interpretation of the results is recommended, the study also concluded that milk consumption is associated with men and women being more prone to bone fractures.
