"milk diet"?

[Chojin]

Milk is pretty rad. It's the only natural source of Casein protein, which your body metabolizes very slowly. For that reason, it's best used after waking to feed muscles throughout the day and right before bed to prevent muscle cannibalization.

As for weight loss, I don't know why Milk would do that. At low milkfat%s, milk is relatively high in sugars, and whole milk is also very high in fat. When lifters are bulking, a common staple of their diets is to drink a gallon of whole milk a day.

Any weight loss program basically boils down to lowering calorie intake, since that's pretty much the only factor that affects fat storages (ketosis does this too, but milk does not assist ketosis in any capacity). The only explanation I could offer is that these people are trading fattening foods for a less calorie-dense food (milk).

Got any links on the milk diet?
