Why is Local Raw Milk the Most Healthy, Best Tasting, and Safest Milk?
· Clean raw milk from pastured cows is a complete and properly balanced food.1
· Pasteurization destroys enzymes, diminishes vitamin content, denatures fragile milk proteins, destroys vitamins C, B12 and B6, kills beneficial bacteria, promotes pathogens and is associated with allergies, increased tooth decay, colic in infants, growth problems in children, osteoporosis, arthritis, heart disease and cancer. Calves fed pasteurized milk do poorly and many die before maturity.2
· Real milk is not ultra-pasteurized like organic milk in the store.3
· Real milk doesn’t contain antibiotics or genetically engineered bovine growth hormones.1,4
· Vitamins A, B6, B12, C, D and K2 as well as healthy enzymes and beneficial bacteria are present in higher quantities than in commercially processed milk.4
· Powdered skim milk, a source of dangerous oxidized cholesterol and neurotoxin amino acids, is added to 1% and 2% milk.2
· Taste is great and butter from real milk is yellow without added food coloring.5
· Jersey cow milk gives 60% more cream, protein, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and other minerals and vitamins.6
· Real milk in glass bottles holds the taste and freshness of the milk longer.7
· Real whole milk saves money too. The Bartletts used two gallons of Jersey cow milk and its 1 1/2 quarts of cream to make 1/3 pound of butter, 1 pint of ice cream, 12 ounces of mild cheese for pizza,1 quart of cottage cheese, 30 ounces of Mysost Norwegian cheese for breakfast toast, whipped cream and pudding. Another gallon was used for drinking and yogurt.
