The pasadena, california whole foods market I go to has organic pastures raw milk. Ready to try raw goat milk, if that ever becomes available.

Can anyone please comment/advise on Whey Healthier which is recommended by Dr Mercola. The above article states:

...in a recent study by Dr. Loren Cordain about the presence of betacellulin, the growth factor found in the whey fraction of milk.

Dr. Cordain cites 25 studies connecting increased rates of cancer to drinking pasteurized milk due to betacellulin, as it passes into the adult digestive tract intact, then comes in contact with receptors and the circulation that stimulates the growth of cancer cells throughout the body.

Is betacellulin found in all whey regardless of whether the milk was pasteurized or raw? I drink Whey Healthier regularly.

For those of you who think milk is for calves and babies or you just can't find raw, it is possible to eat cereal without milk. If you can't stand it dry then water works just as well.

Does anyone know if goat milk is regarded as safer or better than cows milk? And what is the refrigerated shelf life for unpasteurized milk?

Thank you.
Sharon

I make a chocolate drink using Whey powder Hershey's Natural Cocoa. Is that even more dangerous than adding Cocoa to "regular" milk?

The Actual Results From The China Study:

=============================
Figure 1
Associations of Selected Variables with Mortality for All Cancers in the China Study

Total Protein +12%
Animal Protein +3%
Fish Protein +7%
Plant Protein +12%
Total Lipids -6%
Carbohydrates +23%
Total Calories +16%
Fat % Calories -17%
Fiber +21%
Fat (questionnaire) -29%*
* statistically significant
==============================
(Data taken from the original monograph of the China Study.)

There is a much higher correlation of plant protein to cancer than animal protein. Carbohydrates have a much higher correlation to cancer. Fat is protective against cancer and is the only statistically significant result.

Look up the original monograph for yourself. Also, see
The Truth About the China Study at this link and at The Weston A. Price Foundation.

Campbell is an animal rights activist and does not believe in eating any animal products. I listened to him on Coast-to-Coast Radio, and the host Ian Punnett asked T. Colin Campbell to verify that he was not a member of PETA; in fact he is a member of a closely affiliate group, but only stated he was not a member of PETA. Look at the links above. T. Colin Campbell and his ilk are all about deception.

Hello All,

Dr. Samuel Epstein of the Cancer Prevention Coalition does have a new book on Genetically Engineered Milk called What's In Your Milk?

His website (not for profit organization) is www.preventcancer.com

Very sincerely . . .

I must agree with Katy on this - why drink milk? We are basically the only species that drinks milk from another species! We can get our calcium from other sources. However, I would love to be able to find raw milk around here for the times I do want milk like on my cereal or when I make pancakes or french toast, but I don't think I can find raw milk around here in the city! Where can I even start looking?

Raw milk rocks... i have been drinking it for several years now, purchased from a local dairy and i have to say i especially love the four or five inches of cream floating on the top. It goes well with fresh fruit and there is nothing in this world better than fresh homemade butter from that very cream... incredibly easy to make too. Just skim it off and put it in a mason jar with a lid and gently rock it around while watching discovery channel. There are so many things that can be made with it, another is Kefir which i absolutely love.

I have a granddaughter who will be 2 in may, and I have been supplying her with this raw milk since she was taken off the breast. She loves it and thrives on it... has never had any allergic reactions to it and demands it on a regular basis... LOL. Her complexion is perfect and she is sharp as a tack... I cant say enough about the difference in store bought milk and raw milk from a local dairy. If you havent tried it... i would challenge you to do just that.

I grew up in Hungary. The milk we bought in my childhood was, I assume, raw milk. But it had to be boiled before you could drink it, otherwise you could have gotten sick.

When you sing the praises of raw milk, Dr. Mecrola, you never mention that it needs to be boiled before you can use it. Or is that not so?

Thank you Duane for your response. I have never eaten anything that is supposed to be cooked raw or undercooked. In fact, I'm guilty of sometimes overcooking which I know is incorrect as well. I do not tolerate dairy products too well and it is the biggest source of weight gain for me. I wonder if it's because of all the pasturization. I know I am not allergic to dairy. I have been tested for allergies. I am too fearful of consuming anything unpasturized or raw. I could never take that chance with my child either. After all we are living longer now than in the past. Modern technology must have something to do with that. However, I am curious...are the baby boomers living longer because they were exposed to more natural foods growing up? Will our generation live as long?

I find the article very interesting, however, I am pregnant and are fearful of consuming anything raw, including unpasturized eggs. What are your thoughts Dr. Mercola for women who are pregnant and/or nursing?

Hi, all of you that have easy access to Raw Milk should be very grateful. Here in NC we are lawbreakers and have to go underground to provide this delicious nutrition to our families. I do go to an organic dairy farm and get my milk, but it is strictly forbidden in NC to buy raw milk except- for "animal consumption" only. The government has the state of NC so scared it's not even funny. I sign petitions, write to my lawmakers etc, please, everyone in NC help to make raw milk more accessible to everyone. People are so brainwashed around here thinking big gov is taking care of us-yeah right!!!!
