I thought dairy leaches calcium from the bones from its acidity?

Answer:

The scientific nutrition community used to believe that the abundance of sulfur-containing amino acids in animal proteins would lead to a negative calcium balance, but that is outdated thinking. 

Since this misconception continues to circulate, though, I’m planning on doing a more in-depth treatment of the subject in the 2013 batch I’m currently working on. Make sure you’re subscribed to my videos so you don’t miss it!
