And even of the milk that is not adulterated with sugar, it’s the dairy farm factories that contribute to the hormone laden quality of dairy cow produced milk. I can’t even think about the cruelty thrust on these dairy cows… drink calcium fortified, low sugar ‘non dairy milks” and orange juice–leafy greens and broccoli will also provide plenty of calcium which is carefully conserved by your body in your bones!

Statistically, most Americans are lactose intollerant. Those of us who are not, are considered to have a mutated gene. I personally appreciate the fact that I can consume dairy products, as I am a big fan, but that doesn’t change the facts.

For years I was a low fat vegetarian and developed health problems because I wasn’t getting the all important fat-soluble vitamins. Fortunately, I stumbled onto http://www.westonaprice.org, a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to spreading the research of nutrition pioneer, Weston A. Price. His studies of isolated non industrialized populations established the parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of human diets.
Essentially, it’s not nature’s food that is bad for us but what manufacturers DO to it that destroys our health.
A project of the Foundation is a campaign for unprocessed REAL milk, produced by local farms sold only to local communities. It’s a win-win situation. Milk really is nature’s perfect food if the cows are raised on healthy pasture and the milk is not denatured by chemicals and pasteurization. Visit http://www.realmilk.com for more information.
I’m 71 and have excellent health, need no Rx meds of any kind, not even OTC meds. I feel and look better now than I did in 2000′ at the end of my mistaken vegetarian journey.
Nature provides nutrient dense foods.
Manufacturers and big AG provide nutrient deficient and chemically dense products.
Thus, we are all now in this health crisis boat floating toward the gates of big hospitals and big pharmaceuticals!
