Breast milk is one of the best things for an infant’s health. So, why is animal milk so unhealthy?
Raw milk vs. pasteurized milk
Pasteurized milk has been heated to kill beneficial enzymes and microbes. However, raw milk contains unique proteins, friendly microbes, fatty acids, and lactase-producing bacteria.
Lactase is an enzyme that helps break down lactose. People who have difficulties digesting milk can typically drink raw milk without any problems. For many people will be useful to consume fermented raw milk products, like cheese and kefir.
Raw milk gives you a better absorption of calcium and fat-soluble vitamins. It also has proteins that can help support your immune system. Raw milk even has an anti-stiffness factor that may benefit people with arthritis and inflammation.
It’s also important to get your milk from A2 cows. There are a lot of problems associated with A1 milk, so it’s best to buy dairy products that contain A2 milk.
Potential raw milk benefits
Other benefits of raw milk include potentially helping with conditions such as:
• Ulcers
• GI problems
• Gout
• Gum disease
• Allergies
• Asthma
If given the choice between pasteurized milk and raw milk, you may want to check out raw milk.
Pasteurization was never intended for the dairy industry. They simply adopted it for one reason – to increase the shelf life of the product. I suffered for over 25 years with a digestive issue, that completely resolved itself within two weeks of drinking raw milk.
I remember my late mum from time to time said when she was very little she was always sick when she was forced to drink pasteurized milk but how strange it was when she was not sick at ALL when she had the raw milk from a relatives farm. Yet more evidence
We have been drinking raw milk for last 7 years. Once a month I travel nearly 60 miles away from London to get the raw milk from a farm. I’ve bought a special freezer to store that milk. It’s so delicious and my children think store bought milk should not be called milk because it doesn’t taste like milk. We need to teach our future generations what are the real foods are and how these look and taste like.
Our creator created everything that would nourish our bodies, but we humans tried to act smart and changed everything as a result every ecosystem is falling apart.
Raw milk is one of the best things that ever happened to me. After years of struggling with Lyme disease, Candida, and chronic bursitis, I’m resurrected. Nature’s perfect food.
My grandfather back in the 1950’s had a milk cow on his farm. I remember my grandmother milking her and straining the milk with a cheese cloth. There was nothing better at breakfast than this raw milk out of the refrigerator!
I grew up on a farm and we always had fresh milk straight from cow to table. My gut problems started within about 5 years of leaving my childhood home and buying milk from supermarkets.
I have dairy cows and it gets tiring to explain that raw milk isn’t the bad guy people make it out to be! We are currently trying to establish A2A2 with our milk because my stomach has so many issues, I really believe the raw milk has saved my life, because even though it wasn’t A2A2 yet, my cow’s milk was the only thing I could ingest for a long time period when I almost died. I am now able to eat more products because of the milk and the raw milk cheeses that I make!
I just started ordering Raw milk , raw butter, cottage cheese, cheese and all my meat from an Amish Farm in Pennsylvania. They are away from city pollution and is called Dutch Meadow Farms. I’m so in love with this milk. It tastes way better than all that processed dairy.
I had chronic mastitis while breast feeding all 5 of my children. On the last 2 when I couldn’t nurse any more I went to raw milk. Those two children did fantastic. Never sick, no ear aches, no antibiotics.
We all drank raw milk for years and made our own cheese and yogurt.
My brother and I, back in the 60s both required raw milk after breast-feeding. It’s the only way we didn’t get sick. My mom had to get a prescription from the doctor that we took to the local dairy to get it. I believe our good health today is attributed to that.
My mother who was born in 1909 was sent to a farm by her doctor to drink raw milk to cure some blood related disease that she had as a child. She was too young to recall the name of the disease but was sure the milk had cured her.
I haven’t been able to drink milk my whole life without gas and the runs. Moved to Pennsylvania in 2005. Where I was living there were numerous organic heirloom farms and dairies. You could buy unpasteurized milk there. It was amazing, for the first time in my life I could drink milk with zero digestive issues. Wonderful.
