Re: Raw Milk - Goat vs. Cow

>> "My question to you or any advocating free range cattle being better. As we now know from countless studies that the soil is nutrient deprived as much as 90 percent in some cases. So even if the cattle is free range, exactly how much value could we place on that milk or crops" <<

This is true on "abused" land, and to a lessor extent on well cared for or virgin land, subject to influences of chemical pollution.

So the value will vary... now you are thinking. This applies to "goats" too :-)

>> "So these are the things I trust to be true.

1. Cow's milk is for baby cows
2. Goat milk is closest to mother's breast milk.
3. The two top cause of cancer from food is milk and sugar.
4. Milk is a known cause of many diseases including but not limited to MS, diabetes, heart disease, etc." <<

1. goat's milk is for baby goats

2. between the two, in general terms, this is true, however, it also depends greatly upon the way the livestock is raised and "breed"; for instance, raw Jersey being better than raw Holstein for human milk consumption - I was hoping you would pick that up from my previous posts.

3. This could be debated too... because I believe that it depends upon the milk and Sugar and would argue that it is the commercial processed varieties of these foods that is the problem AND what you are referring to... for instance if I say "sugar" causes cancer, does that mean that I should not eat a whole "fruit" due to its "high" Sugar content?

Of course not... so then, what are you really stating with that statement? We need to be more clear when making statements such as these... and as for the milk, or red meat "debate" for that matter... check out the Massi as I suggested in my previous post... or the Amish.

4. Once again... the correlations are made with commercially available processed milk and a blanket statement like this is a great disservice of misinformation to many who require animal proteins and fats in order to maintain optimal health.

To answer your last question... I am not so sure I would like to have a forum.
