“DRINK your milk. It’s good for you!” You’ve probably heard that many times, and it’s true. Milk contains calcium（鈣）, which is necessary for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The US government even _______ milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat - free or low - fat milk every meal.

However, a group of doctors asked the government to take it away from the lunch program. The US ‘Physician Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM)’ says, “Milk is high in sugar, fat and animal protein,” all of which are not so _______ to health. There are better ways to get calcium, such as eating beans and drinking orange juice and soymilk. “One of the only _______ people prefer milk is because it is going to help build strong bones,” says Dr Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. But milk may not be the best way to get calcium your body needs.

Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but there are other things that have _______ to do with your bone strength, such as genes（基因）, how much vitamin D you take in, and time, getting an hour’s exercise every day.

Some people disagree with the idea that milk isn’t important. Keri Gans, an American Dietitian（營養(yǎng)學(xué)家）, says “I don’t think it’s _______ if we take away this drink from the lunch line. Children enjoy it very much, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient（營養(yǎng)的）needs for the day.”

The US government is now considering PCRM’s idea, but _______ may be a long way off. A professor at New York University puts it best: “Milk certainly has nutrients. Other food has the same nutrients. It’s just food. As with other food, too much might be a problem.”
