Jinx, I think you are talking about this:
Quote:
Is Dairy a good source of Calcium?
Calcium from milk and milk products is absorbed at a higher percentage rate
than calcium from inorganic supplements because of the cofactors found in the
milk. However, the high animal protein content, fat, pesticides, and bovine growth
hormones in the milk make it less than desirable to consume.

{note the link is a non-meat eating supporting site so there may be a bit of biased info on it.}

There is a big dispute between the Vegans and the Meat Eaters concerning the role that proteins play. As you can imagine there is quite a bit of contradicting information on the internet. Generally most agree that high or large amounts of protein of any kind, not only animal, can contribute to calcium loss. That is the part they don't tell you and the emphasis on the "animal" portion is another ploy to discourage meat eating and encourage their own lifestyle. Whatever. Eat right, include lots of veggies and fruits and eat in moderation we should all be healthier. There is no promise you will not die of heart disease or cancer because of it, but you may feel better to the bitter end.

This seems like a fairly balanced article that anyone should be able to understand:
