    Do it! You need the calories.

If raw milk is easier to digest, lactase is not the reason. It may or may not have less lactose in it than regular milk, but I would guess there is significant variation between batches of raw and regular milk making any such determination problematic.

    You're right and I must correct myself. Raw milk is believed to contain the probiotics to aid the production of lactase in the body, but doesn't contain lactase in it. Pasteurization kills the good bacteria.

    There's only like a 300 calorie difference between a gallon of whole milk and a gallon of 2%. It's unlikely that switching from one to the other will alone get you past a stall.

    Why are you opposed to whole milk?

    Don't you think the additional fat has any benefits that go beyond the extra calories?

    Did your ead Gary Gibsons latest post about whole milk? That stuff is like magic. Also, SS:BBT describes whole milk to have macro nutrients that help spped up recovery. Besides, im a skinny fuck that needs to gain weight.

    Results from switching to whole milk will depend on how well your body burns fat, IMO. There certainly isn't a lot of carbohydrate in it, the body's first choice for energy.
    And anyone that is over 4' and weighs 115lbs. needs a lot more than just milk. I use db's heavier than that. I'm just sayin', ya know?
    Every time we find a "hardgainer", we have an "undereater". Lose the abs and build the house over them.

    It's not like magic and it won't make up for an insufficient diet of solid food. However, it is a powerful tool and a great aid in gaining weight.
