Because I don't care, I'd still drink it if I liked it. It just seemed a little weird to me that the raw food crowd would be in a "craze" over milk.
Homogenization and pasteurization destroy most of the living active nutrients found in milk. Scientists believe its no coincidence that the homogenization of milk and the increase of atherosclerotic heart disease began at about the same time, in the 1940’s. Research shows that the epidemic of hardening of the arteries is directly related to the consumption of homogenized milk. When milk is homogenized mechanically, the fat particles of the cream are strained under pressures of 4,000 pounds per square inch, creating highly damaging heat and becoming so small they are up to 10 times smaller than normal. The fat now remains in suspension within the milk, rather than rising to the top, giving the product a "smoother" feel. It's lamentable to realize that consumers are exposed to this highly toxic, damaging process for no other purpose than improving the marketability of milk. In its natural form, the fat in milk would normally be broken down and digested in the stomach, facilitating the absorption of the proteins and nutrients in the milk. But because homogenization has made it an abnormal, very small size, it is absorbed into the bloodstream instead. The fat globules now found in the bloodstream react negatively against arterial walls and a layer of cholesterol is then created as a protective lining. The fat damaged during the homogenization process is an unnatural composition that cannot be broken down by the body as intended, making it more susceptible to rancidity and oxidation which may contribute to heart disease also. Another issue is the proteins which have become encapsulated in the fat globules. Proteins aren't meant to enter the bloodstream, so the body reacts to this foreign presence by producing mucus, and they can become triggers for autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis and diabetes. Homogenized milk should obviously be avoided if possible. Most states require the pasteurization of milk, but homogenization is not always mandatory. Look for non-homogenized milk in health food stores.
I don't have a search function to bring it up, but someone was asking me if i ate a lot of cereal and milk. I told him i've ate cereal for many meals my whole life. He then suggested i stay away from milk. I dont think he gave reason why milk was brought up.
i gotta try this almond milk now. I only use milk to make my protein shakes anyway...so I drink 8oz at the most a day. Rest is water.
Big fan of raw goat milk and kefir. Raw milk is good too but still mucus forming. Here's a good site to find sources near you: http://www.realmilk.com/
I take it from this copypasta nonsense you have no idea to the answer I asked. Thanks for admitting it
Yes, there is no proof or logic at all to calling homogenization toxic or harmful as it claims. It says nothing similar at all to what you said (which was of course nonsense) and comes from a pseudoscience source. Like most pseudoscience it starts with generic truths, and moves further and further into fantasy.
I love milk. And i'm gonna go ahead and keep buying that generic **** I see in HEB. It's worked well so far in life.
