Milk may be better than juice, but it isn't really well suited for humans either. The hormone mixture stimulates cell growth and helps a calf double its weight in 100 days, but what else profits from fast cell growth? Cancer. You will find a lot of studies that support this thesis, and you'll find even more studies denying it - but guess who finances the latter, in most cases it's the dairy industrial complex.

In the EU (which Sweden belongs to), giving hormones to dairy animals to increase milk production is illegal, so that was not part of my reasoning. In other countries milk might be less optimal then (but perhaps you get organic milk or something with fewer additives).

I wasn't alluding to BST. Milk contains growth hormones naturally, because calves half to gain an absurdly amount of weight in a short time. We don't need to grow so fast as humans.
