What kind of "milk" is the healthiest?

At thr moment I am veering towards organic skimmed goat's milk or organic fermented soy milk. What do you guys think? Smile

Hoppi! ^_^

Hoppipolla - Raw milk (grass-fed).

Organic alone really means almost nothing except that perhaps there are no antibiotics or hormones.

I've heard somewhere that goat's milk is closer to human milk.

Ditch the pasteurized....

Colostrum is also very beneficial. Many people swear by it

Ah thank you CS, I remember hearing about raw milk! Only issue is it's probably quite tricky to get hold of and also fatty I would imagine O.O

Is my skimmed goat's milk ok (as of course it's available at all the local supermarkets) or I wonder if I can get skimmed raw milk. Is pasteurized actually bad, or just not as good?

Thanks! I love cereal but had no idea what I should be putting on it lol

Even raw cow's dairy gave me some itching. Raw goat's dairy suits me the best.

Personally, I would ditch the cereal too! Just my 02 cents... Try a raw bunch of dandelions for breakfast!

When in Upstate NY, I love drinking raw milk. Everything upstate is conducive to health and well-being. I also love eating pure maple syrup and eggs for breakfast and fresh trout for lunch, all that you harvested the day before. Once back in the concrete jungle, there aren't many sources of unpasteurized milk. My second choice is then Almond Breeze without sugar, to which I add stevia drops. Tastes great in oatmeal, decent in coffee.

I've found it hard to get any milk in the UK worth drinking so just dropped it altogether. I suppose I didn't try hard but it wasn't worth looking that hard for.

Raw milk from A2 cows is better than the A1 cows. Milk from older breeds like the Jersey or the African (A2 cows) contain the amino acid proline in the beta-casein protein while in the younger breeds like the Holsteins (A1 cows), the proline amino acid has mutated and as a result is causing many of the allergic reactions in people.

This is important because beta-casein also contains an amino acid called BCM-7, which is a powerful opiate linked to negative health effects. Well, the proline that exists in A2 cows has a strong bond to BCM-7, which helps keep it out of the cows’ milk. The histidine in the newer A1 cows, however, has a weak hold on BCM-7, which allows it to get into the milk, and also into the people who drink the milk.

So the theory goes that by drinking milk from A1 cows, which are the predominant cows used for dairy products in the United States, you’re exposed to BCM-7, which has been linked to:

* Neurological impairment, including autistic and schizophrenic changes
* Type 1 diabetes
* An impaired immune response
* Autoimmune disease
* Heart disease…”

Almond milk.

To be honest, my diet has become significantly lazier since my new-found confidence about my liver fat theory! Now, I just pretty much avoid overdoing fat, refined sugar, alcohol, gluten, heavier meats or dairy, but mostly just eat a fairly normal, reasonably healthy diet Smile

The healthiest milk for human consumption is human breast milk from a healthy female. Next human breast milk kefir! Your next best bet is Raw grass fed organic Goats milk Kefir!. Then finally raw grass fed organic goats milk.

Cows milk should only be consumed sparingly IMO/E, it will cause inflammation.

almond milk bought in store usually will be pasteurized unless you,or the seller make it themselves so the fat will be destroyed by heat not good. Coconut milk is probably the best option next to raw grass fed milk if you can obtain that in your state. It can be cooked is heat stable,but still is better raw.
