Zusammenfassung

Cow' milk is a main food in human nutrition, even beyond the weaning period, at least in Causasian population. In the last few years, through the web or other non-conventional information technologies some negative ideas on the intake of cow's milk have arisen. Mostly they are aprioristic positions with little scientific evidence. In this paper we will review the role on cow's milk intake in the development of ferropenic anemia, the causes of lactose intolerance or the prevalence of cow's milk allergy beyond infancy. Some voices have pointed a disputable role of cow's milk in the development of metabolic syndrome or other chronic non-transmissible diseases. Even autistic disorders or mucous production have being associated with the intake of cow's milk. Strengthnesses and weaknesses of these arguments will be reviewed. Some practical points will be set at the end of the papers.
