H. Douglas Goff, PhD Biography
- Title:
- Professor of Food Science at the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada
- Position:
- Pro to the question "Is Drinking Milk Healthy for Humans?"
- Reasoning:
-
“The role of milk in nature is to nourish and provide immunological protection for the mammalian young. Milk has been a food source for humans since prehistoric times; from human, goat, buffalo, sheep, yak, to the focus of this section – domesticated cow milk (genus Bos). Milk and honey are the only articles of diet whose sole function in nature is food. It is not surprising, therefore, that the nutritional value of milk is high.”
