Not uniquely: it has a number of important nutrients including being a good source of vitamin D and protein. But we are omnivores and numerous other foods can get the same nutrients to us

Try Almond milk: There does seem to be an association between drinking cows milk and the development of certain cancers. Cows milk is "designed" to promote the growth of infant cows...which grow and mature much more rapidly than human infants. Human milk contains less of these growth factors. I recommend drinking almond or almond cashew milk instead of cows milk. Explore the topic at> http://bit.ly/1O9fpH1
