Organic Raw Milk - Life Giving Milk

By Kathryn Barry

You keep hearing the mantra "Raw Milk is Dangerous because of Bacteria". The one and only time I remember becoming deathly ill from drinking milk was when I drank some low fat pasteurized milk. I thought I was going to die! So much for pasteurized milk being a safe alternative and organic raw milk being dangerous.

What's left in low fat processed milk anyway?

This is What is Happening to Milk and Your Health

Enzymes are extremely fragile and will be lost at temperatures of 145 Degrees for 30 minutes or longer. This process is called pasteurization and renders a food lifeless. This process creates a drain on your pancreas and only creates more work for this organ to help digest your food.

Milk fats are destroyed by a process called homogenization. These fats then go on to create cholesterol blockages in your arteries and scar your vital blood vessels.

Ultra-Pasteurization heats milk to 280 degrees, rendering it completely indigestible and ultra-pasteurization will also create MSG - a Neurotoxin.

Now Let's Look at Organic Raw Milk

Great source of important minerals such as calcium, vitamin B12, essential fatty acids, and good bacteria. The nutrients are much more easily absorbed because of the enzymes still present in this milk. Enzymes such as lactoferrin are responsible for protecting you and milk from pathogens.

Raw Goat Milk is Good and Nutritious

Raw goat milk is a great substitute for cow's milk for those people who cannot deal with lactose. Goat's milk is less allergenic and it does not contain the complex protein that stimulates allergic reactions found in cow's milk.

Unlike cow's milk, goat's milk does not contain agglutinin and therefore, the fat globules in goat's milk do not cluster together - making them easier to digest. The fat molecules are smaller than cow's milk and doesn't separate - it's naturally homogenized.

Goat milk contains beneficial fatty acids that are short and medium-chained. This is another reason why goat milk is easy for your body to digest.

Raw Goat's Milk contains vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, trace elements, enzymes, protein and fatty acids that are utilized by your body with ease.

This milk alkalinizes your digestive system and it actually contains an alkaline ash that does not produce acid in your intestinal system.

Even though my first love is raw cow's milk, I would be just as happy to drink raw goat's milk. It would be nice to be able to purchase either one in the location of your choosing.

If you are lucky enough to live in a state that provides Organic Raw Milk, you are lucky. This is one of the hardest health foods to find in most states.

I often wonder why securing a supply of nutritious raw milk has been made so hard. Some raw dairies are subjected to such harassment and unfair treatment. It's time to stop treating these dairies like they were drug dealers.

My hope is that one day this milk will be made available to the general public, but that will only happen when enough people demand raw milk. - 17268
