Re: Raw Milk - Goat vs. Cow

>> "As you know Grz, goat milk is not available all year long only when they have babies which is generally twice a year. So for a few months goat milk is not available." <<

This is learning to eat with natures cycles... a very good thing IMO.

>> "cow's milk causes MS" <<

There may be a connection here with Diabetes type 1 too...

I would like to make one thing clear here... when reading about cow milk being "bad" or "good" for us, please ask these questions...

Was the milk in the studies pasteurized? homogenized? I would be willing to bet yes on both counts.

Was it raw?

I would be willing to bet, no.

These things make a huge difference in the outcome of the study and the subsequent "correlations" or "assumptions" of these studies... whether the scientists and/or doctors, like Dr. Lam, understand it or not.

Additional differences would be were the cows free range?

Or kept in their own filth in commercial feed lots?

Were they organic?

Or were they fed GMO, pesticide, fungicide, herbicide laden grains? Shot full of hormones and Antibiotics , etc. etc.

Once again, I will state, my preference is for goat milk period... both for my own health and taste. That said, the Amish seem to do very well with their cows (Jersey's mostly if I understand correctly)... and a much lower incedence of these diseases than in the general population.

What I am in disagreement with, are the blanket statements made by health "science", that focus on the use of commercial, perversely adulterated (pasteurized and homogenized) cow's milk.

One would be hard pressed today to find a "real" Science study that followed free range, organic raw milk consumers from birth to death... and then assess their health and predisposition to certain "diseases".

Perhaps these scientists should study the Massi who eat red meat protein, drink their livestocks blood (they do not kill the cows to do this) and the raw milk from their cows... they seem to fare very well.

Perhaps it has something to do with outdoor living and organic free range grazing...
