The hormone thing is a bit better with organic milk - and organic milk tastes much better. I'm not lactose intolerant, and milk remains a good source of calcium and vitamin D in my life..and I like it...

I just read a study this morning from Yale on the benefits - so it's fresh in my mind. Again - I'm aware it's not the best - but it's also not the worst.
