See article keywords and concepts |  Because it's not homogenized or pasteurized, it's nutritionally superior to dead, cooked milk. raw milk seems to be far easier to digest, and it contains living bacteria cultures that enhance digestion and even soothe the digestive tract.
It's no surprise, then, that raw milk is under attack by both federal regulators and some members of the processed milk industry. They don't want people to find a "superior" milk that isn't as profitable to sell (because it has reduced shelf life), so they're trying to destroy the raw milk market and limit consumer choice to processed, dead milk. | | Thumbs way up: Fermented raw milk
The best dairy beverage for your health is, in my opinion, fermented raw milk. If you take raw milk and inoculate it with bacterial cultures, then let it sit for a day or two, you end up with a living, predigested, nutritionally superior beverage that's so packed with life it's actually fizzy (carbonated due to the off-gassing of bacteria) when you make it yourself at home.
One form of this fermented milk is called Kefir. It's an incredible beverage when you make it yourself. | | This attack on raw milk is dressed up to look like a public safety concern. raw milk is dangerous, regulators claim, because the live cultures might get contaminated with unfriendly bacteria and harm someone. The preferred alternative, it seems, is to kill all the food so that it harms everyone equally.
In terms of choosing raw milk, the typical choices are raw cow's milk and raw goat's milk. Raw goat's milk is more compatible with human nutritional needs (and is especially beneficial to infants when mother's milk isn't available), but it has a stronger taste that not everyone enjoys. | | They don't want people to find a "superior" milk that isn't as profitable to sell (because it has reduced shelf life), so they're trying to destroy the raw milk market and limit consumer choice to processed, dead milk. (The same is true in the almond industry, where the Almond Board of California is now trying to irradiate all almonds grown in the state, yet have them labeled as "raw" even when they're dead.)

See book keywords and concepts | | Pottenger found that only diets containing raw milk and raw meat were adequate for maintaining the optimal health of the cats from generation to generation. Cats on an all-raw diet had good bone structure with wide palates and plenty of space for their teeth, excellent bone density, shiny fur, and freedom from parasites and disease. They reproduced with ease, and were gentle and easy to handle.
Cooking meat, or substituting heat-processed milk for raw milk, resulted in physical degeneration that increased with each generation. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Pitcairn's Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats, discusses giving your feline milk: "Some people recommend rhat raw milk and raw cheeses for the bulk of a cat's diet. Others say that cats, especially Siamese cats, do not properly digest lactose (milk sugar), and that drinking milk causes gas and diarrhea. Based on the feedback I solicir from clients, I have found that milk usually does not cause problems."9 Dr. Pitcairn suggests using raw milk, yogurt, or goat's milk if your cat has problems digesting cow's milk. |

See book keywords and concepts |  However, since bacteria are attracted to dead cells, and raw milk is not pasteurized, the latter is more susceptible to bacterial contamination.
In July 2007, the U.S. Department of Agriculture tested raw milk from 861 farms in 21 states. According to their report, nearly a quarter of the samples contained illness-causing bacteria, including five percent with listeria, three percent with salmonella, and four percent with less dangerous types of E. coli. Regardless of the real figures of contamination, either type of milk comes with its own risks. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Price Foundation, the number of raw milk drinkers is now at about half a million people across the United States—many of them willingly breaking the law, purchasing their milk from "underground black markets," and other creative setups. raw milk comes with its own risks. Even if the cows grow up on organic farms, their milk bladders are constantly filled and extended, day after day, month after month, year after year. A continuous process of milk production (lactation) is unnatural for any animal. | | California, Washington and Georgia, it is illegal to sell whole, raw milk, despite the fact that raw milk contains far less potentially harmful bacteria than pasteurized, homogenized milk. Pasteurized, homogenized milk does not qualify as food per se. The homogenization process breaks up an enzyme (xanthine oxidase), which in its altered (smaller) state can enter the bloodstream and react against arterial walls, causing the body to protect the area with a layer of cholesterol.
The demand for raw, non-pasteurized milk is booming. According to Sally Fallon, president for the Weston A. |

The French Countess Desmond Catherine, who lived to the age of 145, ate only fruit.
One of the most famous undereaters is Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman in the ministry of the Pope, who lived from 1464 to 1566. By his forties, he had nearly eaten himself to death. He was attended by Doctor Father Benedict, who advised him in the arts of natural living and undereating. |

Death resulted only from old age or injuries sustained in fighting. None of the raw food cats died from disease. In contrast, 100% of the cats fed overcooked or treated food and milk suffered an increasing degeneration of their bones, teeth, and reproductive ability. Their disease conditions continued to increase. Figure 5.2 briefly summarizes the results of the study. |

See book keywords and concepts |  In a perfect world, we'd make it ourselves, or get it from the same grass-fed animals that provide raw milk and healthy meat. But even commercial yogurt can contain large amounts of healthy bacteria—called probiotics—and for this reason alone, yogurt is worth including. (There are other reasons as well— see page 182.) And both organic butter and ghee, for all the reasons listed (see pages 176 and 177) remain among my favorite fats. | | But more and more people are turning to small farms and collectives (at this writing, there are nearly forty such farms licensed to sell raw milk in Pennsylvania alone). It's worth looking for.
A Note on Goat's Milk
Goat's milk has more easily digestible fat and protein content than cow's milk. (This increased digestibility of the protein is of great importance to infant diets as well as for invalid and convalescent diets.) It also has 18 percent more calcium, 41 percent more magnesium, 22 percent more phosphorus, 42 percent more potassium, and almost twice the vitamin A. | | Natural, raw milk cheeses (whether from cow's milk or any other animal) are likely to be richer in healthy fats like omega-3s and CLA, especially if the animals graze on grass.
And while usually there are no hard and fast rules for quality, in this one case I'll make an exception: If it says "cheese food" on the label, for goodness' sake, put the package down and step away from the counter.

Raw Organic Milk

Stir it up, and the resulting mixture is like Cherry Garcia ice cream, only with a zillion times more health benefits. It's absolutely delicious, and it's my secret weapon against The Attack of the Ice Cream Craving. |

See article keywords and concepts |  You might croak after drinking a gallon of raw milk that went really, really bad, or you could buy the farm after eating a salad contaminated by salmonella from the knife you used to slice that contaminated chicken (70% of store-bought raw chicken meat is contaminated with salmonella, did you know?). These are inherent risks in life. Food sometimes kills you, and even when it doesn't, you sometimes get diarrhea so bad that you wish it had.
The defense against food poisoning is to have a healthy immune system and a really healthy population of friendly flora in your gut. |

See book keywords and concepts |  It is almost impossible to buy raw milk, unless you know someone who raises goats or cows. Raw cheese, however, is available in health food stores. Usually people can digest feta, cottage, and ricotta cheeses better than other cheeses. But again, much depends on other factors mentioned.
You can include butter and regular yogurt in small amounts?no more than one half cup per day.
Slash the Salt
We need some salt in our diet, but we don't need to choose salty foods to get the proper amount. |

See book keywords and concepts | | I have become more convinced than ever of the value and importance of raw milk in the diets of people of all ages," says Schmid.
Milk from Grass-Fed Cows Much Higher in Omega-3S
The fat content of the milk from organically raised, grass-fed cows is wholly different than that of their factory-farmed brethren. Studies have shown that the omega-3 fat content of grass-fed, pasture-roaming cows is as high as 50 percent (it's virtually nonexistent in factory-farmed animals). |
Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith
See book keywords and concepts | | Half were fed raw milk and raw meat; the other half ate cooked meat and pasteurized (cooked) milk. During a ten-year period, he found that the cats on the raw diet thrived, while those on the cooked food diet showed all the degenerative diseases common in man. By the third generation, all the cats on the processed diet were sterile or congenitally malformed. Not only do we have more energy (life force) from raw foods in our diet, but our bodies are more thoroughly hydrated due to their high water content. |
