"Your mother told you to drink your milk to build strong bones, but it may be a healthy move for another reason too... According to the latest research, milk does a body, or rather, your blood pressure, good! Researchers found that people who consumed foods rich in milk protein--and also, soy protein!--instead of carbohydrate rich foods had healthier blood pressure. To see if these study results can work for you, just swap bread, crackers and cookies for soymilk, yogurt, or milk. I admit, I&amp;#x27;m not a huge milk drinker, but I love yogurt and usually order soy lattes when I&amp;#x27;m at Starbucks! Do you have high blood pressure? Do you get enough milk or soy protein?
