Dairy cows are at a vulnerable state when they’re between lactations. This is why a rest period is required in between, primarily because they will be more prone to nutritional issues at this time. The rest period is an important process in a cow’s lactations because this helps to prevent health problems that may give serious problems to the cow’s milk production and future lactations.

It is important to go through the proper drying-off procedure to prevent the emergence of diseases and infections such as mastitis and intramammary infections. It is generally recommended to first withdraw concentrates from the cow’s ration for one to two weeks, and then afterwards to gradually stop milking. As drying-off goes, when the cow isn’t milked for 18 hours or more, the milk glands will stop producing droplets of milk. This will reduce the size of the udder and will start the cow’s dry period of 60 days. Be reminded that during this period the cow should be placed in clean and dry pens and is separated from the lactating cows.

During the dairy cow’s dry period, we should take care to check for diseases and infections that the cows may develop. Three important things to check would be mastitis prevention, vitamin supplementation, and the cow’s body condition.

Mastitis is one of the main concerns of the livestock owners. Mastitis is the inflammation of the creasts or udder, which is caused by infection. This is particularly troubling because it threatens the cow’s milk production and lactation. To stop mastitis we begin by doing intramammary antibiotic treatment. This is to prevent udder infections during the start of the dry period and some other infections from the previous lactation. Check with the veterinarian for the right antibiotic product as well as the antibiotic sensitivity patterns for the mastitis agents in the cows.

Vitamin supplementation is also vital as cows in late pregnancy needs a big amount of vitamins, particularly vitamins A, D, E and selenium. Vitamin A helps in preventing premature and stillborn calves and retained placenta, while vitamin E and selenium helps to enhance the body’s defenses from infectious agents. A balanced vitamin supplemented diet is needed during the cow’s dry period.

Pregnancy and lactation, reproduction and milk production, takes a considerable toll on the cows. They also have a reduced dry matter intake for the first two months of lactation. This is why the cows must have stored body fat as a source of reserve energy, especially during this period.

Lactating cows usually use about 1 kilogram of stored fat each day to produce 7 kilograms of milk. If the cow uses up more than one kilogram, especially in the first 14 days of lactation, ketosis may occur because of the fat that is accumulating in the liver. The interval to the conception will be longer than normal in this case.

To be know more about your cow’s vitamin supplementation and balanced feed intake, always refer to your veterinarian and learn how to evaluate and balance dry cow rations. Dairy cows have become vital in our daily lives that their health problems are also our problems, which makes these prevention methods a must.

Is Milk Too much to swallow?

Once upon a time… opening my first grade reader cast a spell that never went away. Enthralled by the smooth seduction of words, I sat oblivious to a desk-and-chair contraption that confined me like a torture rack, absolutely stunned by the raw power, brazen clarity and heart-stopping eloquence of “See Dick run.” 

Haltingly, I followed Jane, Dick and Spot “up the hill”… and saw a cow.

I knew what moo meant. “Moo” was the milk in the thermos in my lunchbox next to a cheese and lettuce sandwich. It was the milk in the big glass and the bowl of Cheerios I’d gulped for breakfast, the glass I’d have when I got home, the glass at dinner later, and maybe even a warmed-up cup of milk at bedtime. Best of all was the mid-morning chocolate milk break – which should not be long now. And if I was really lucky, ice cream for desert. If CNN had interviewed me on the spot, I would have blinked and said, “Milk? Everybody drinks milk. It tastes good, and my dad says it makes you healthy.”

I drank lots of milk. Maybe you did too. Maybe you still believe all those mass-marketing mantras constantly telling us to drink milk so we “stay healthy” and our bones won’t melt. Or maybe you don’t drink it, but you give it to your own kids and their friends. 

I hope not. I pray that you gently take the glass away from every child you see drinking the stuff. Give the little whippersnappers almost anything else. But please… Not Milk!

DOWNERS
Click on notmilk.com and the next time little moonbeam in her highchair makes a face, tips her cereal bowl onto the floor and laughs – you will rush to praise her perspicacity and wit. Because by then you will know (if you’d dared follow the links) that instead of standing around chewing their cud like slow philosophers, almost all of America’s 96 million cattle are transported, penned and persecuted like inmates at Guantánamo.

Swollen by high-protein, soy-based feeds, cows immersed in crowding, confusion, pain and fear have become milk machines. With each nipple grasped by a mechanical tentacle as swollen pituitaries painfully pump three-times more milk than normal, cows produce like Chinese sweatshop girls until they wear out. Just as these young women are discarded as broken hulks – burned out by too many Wal-Mart shipments – broken-down cows are chopped up and fed to other cows. It’s not supposed to happen. But hardly anyone official is checking. So it’s more than very likely that the hamburger you’re chewing came from a cannibal cow fed the brains and other parts of sick cows, sheep and other four-leggeds. Along with their discarded offal. 

How gross is that? 

GERMS
To keep concentration camp cows alive in cramped, feces-filled stalls long enough to produce 155 billion pounds of milk a year in the United States requires constant doses of antibiotics. The consequences of steadily drinking milk – as well as eating farm fish laced with antibiotics – are already showing up in “Superbugs” that have rapidly evolved to thrive on the antibiotics they’ve adapted to. [mercola.com]

In addition, organophosphate pesticides derived from chemical warfare – such as Malathion and Phosmet – are sometimes poured directly over the spines of cows, where these poisons are absorbed into the meat and milk that end up accumulating in your own tissues – particularly in the lymph nodes of female breasts. [Minnesota Statutes 1998]

When it comes to regulations and corporate profits, everything makes a circle. The US government agencies that certify milk and meat “safe” without really looking have long been in violation of World Health Organization standards of beef production. [corpwatch.org; Green Party USA 12/03]

GROW UP
Banned in Canada and Europe, the Bovine Growth Hormone forced into American cows shows up in milk as an insulin growth factor (IGIF-1). Surviving pasteurization and human digestion, IGF-1 is absorbed directly into the human bloodstream – especially in infants, who are not calves meant to suckle udders. 

As Dr. Joseph Mercola, author of Total Health Program points out, it is “highly likely” that the same BGH that gives cows breast infections “promotes the transformation of human breast cells to cancerous forms.” After all, he adds, IGF-1 is a known accelerator of breast and colon cancer cells, “promoting their progression and invasiveness.”

Another big BGH bummer is that it also decreases the body fat in cows. Contaminated with an unappetizing stew of pesticides, dioxins, and antibiotic residues, the poisons accumulated in cow fat are passed into the cows’ milk – and the carton in your fridge. [Green Party USA 12/03]

Why are American and Japanese kids so much taller than their grandparents or parents? Follow the milk. Scientists who did found that “Milk intake was positively associated with IGF-I concentrations and height.”

Consumption of milk and dairy products can raise IGF-I levels in children by a factor of 30%. In adolescents creaking from rapid growth, BHG acts like rocket fuel. It has a similar effect on cancer cells. Pointing to voluminous documentation on his Not Milk website, Robert Cohen observes that “IGF-I is also a key factor in the proliferation and growth of every human cancer.” [American Journal of Clinical Nutrition Aug/04]

MAKING THINGS WORSE
Forget pasteurization. High heat destroys the lactase, calcium and dozens of other enzymes needed for milk’s digestion and assimilation. A stressed-out pancreas trying to produce these missing enzymes can lead to diabetes – currently at epidemic levels in sugar-and-milk consuming cultures. Milk is also hard on the heart. “Compelling research demonstrating clear associations with this absorbed enzyme and increased risks of heart disease,” Dr. Mercola asserts.]

Drinking skim milk is disastrous. Without the missing butterfat, our bodies cannot absorb and use the vitamins and minerals found in watery skim milk. The vitamin D complex lost with the butterfat is replaced in skim milk with synthetic vitamin D known to be toxic to the liver. And according to Dr. Mercola, the cholesterol found in the non-fat dried milk used in 1% and 2% milk “is rancid and promotes heart disease.” Like all spray-dried products, skim milk powder is also high in nitrite. [mercola.com]

A REALLY BIG MILK GROSS OUT
Robert Cohen helpfully reminds us that dairy cows filter blood through their udders all day. Dead white blood cells – pus, in other words – help them make all that milk. “Udders bleed discharges, including bacteria and blood drip into the milk,” Cohen shares. 

It’s still legal to sell if the cup of milk you’re drinking contains less than 50 million pus cells. 

If you can stomach the medical evidence, MD Michael Greger cites nine single-spaced pages of medical references to show conclusively that the lifetime scourges of Paratuberculosis and Crohn’s Disease have “got milk.” Awarded the equivalent of journalism’s Pulitzer Prize, Greger’s “Project Censored Award” for one of the most suppressed stories of 1999 resulted from his expose showing the connection between Crohn’s disease and the ParaTB gems swimming in your daughter’s glass of milk. 

“Described as a human scourge, over a half million Americans suffer from this devastating, lifelong condition with annual US medical costs in the billions,” Doctor Greger says. For Crohn’s contemplators, he invites non-sufferers to “think of the worst stomach flu they ever had and then try to imagine living with that every day.”

Slurping from a nationwide epidemic of cattle diseases, milk-guzzling Americans are coming down with the highest rate of Crohn’s ever recorded anywhere, after ingesting the Paratuberculosis mycobacterium (MAP) from infected cows.

As you might expect from their living conditions, there are a lot of sick cows staggering from feedlots to dinner tables. Dr. Greger cites the USDA’s latest figures showing three quarters of a million US cattle infected with ParaTB. Up to 40% of US dairy herds are already infected, he says. “The infection rate is expected to reach 100%.”

Since MAP bacteria live inside pus cells, in a nation with double the allowed limit of pus cells in milk as anywhere else, American milk drinkers are playing with pathogens. Right now, US federal laws protecting the Dairy Mafia allow Grade A milk to contain more than a drop of pus per glass of milk. 

TB MILK
When researchers in Ireland grew live Paratuberculosis bacteria from almost one in five tested cartons of retail pasteurized milk, they blew the whistle so loud, corporate spin specialists lamented “enormous” and “horrific” losses – not in human lives, but in diary profits! Milk Science International, an industry mouthpiece, worried that telling customers they were drinking cow pus and giving it to their children would prove “potentially catastrophic for the dairy industry.”

“Despite headlines splashed throughout Europe, not a word crossed the Atlantic,” Dr. Greger groans. Just like “the media blackout in the U.S. in the early years of the mad cow disease crisis.”  

The USDA has rejected a proposal by a Crohn’s patient advocacy group to conduct a similar test for Paratuberculosis in U.S. dairy products. John Hermon-Taylor, chairman of a London medical school surgery, and an internationally recognized expert on Crohn’s and Paratuberculosis, says, “There is overwhelming evidence that we are sitting on a public health disaster of tragic proportions.” 

Every few seconds, some child or infant is hit with another dose of chemically treated cow’s milk. Every few hours, Dr. Greger points out, “another child in this country is diagnosed with Crohn’s disease and may be condemned to a life of chronic suffering.”

As for the milk causing all this mayhem, his prescription is simple: “The consumer movement needs to move it to the front burner and turn up the heat.”

JUST SAY YUK
“Don’t drink your milk,” urges Dr. Joseph Mercola. “Milk and refined sugar make two of the largest contributions to food- induced ill health in our country.” [mercola.com/artcle/milk/no_milk./htm] 

Specifically, moo juice has been shown to cause in diarrhea, cramps, bloating, gas, gastrointestinal bleeding, iron-deficiency anemia, skin rashes, arteriosclerosis, and acne. The journal Pediatrics has also found, “Babies who are fed whole cow’s milk during the second six months of life may experience a 30% increase in intestinal blood loss and a significant loss of iron.”

HOW DICK AND JANE GOT SICK
In September 2004, DairyMAX hailed GW Bush’s “Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act”, which prohibits schools from restricting sales of milk products at any time on school premises or at school-sponsored events. 

The National Dairy Council, which is funded by dairy producers, “provided information on milk’s nutritional importance to America’s children and youth,” DairyMAX reported. Their lobbying was so powerful, “Congress rejected an aggressive effort by soy interests to make their beverages fully substitutable for milk in school meal programs.” 

U.S. schools are now required to adopt “wellness policies” – in part by providing flavored milk and cheese through vending machines laden with antibiotics, ParaTB, Bovine Growth Hormone and Crohn’s disease. 

Aggressively pushed by the NFL and Wendy’s food chains – and widely promoted by celebrities and “healthy living” websites – milk drinking is also linked to insulin-dependent diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, infertility, and leukemia. [dairymax.org; notmilk.com]

Meanwhile, Dick and Jane have succumbed to the modern plague of asthma. “Cow’s milk is the number one allergic food in this country,” Dr. Mercola maintains. “Cow’s milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies in young infants,” agrees the September-October 1995 issue of W V Medical Journal.

Anemia is another legacy of milk. Robert Cohen reports that after more than 150,000 Vietnamese relocated in Australia, for the first time in their lives nearly every child became afflicted with asthma, diabetes, earaches and iron-deficient anemia. Though sugar and beef were strongly implicated, the primary assailant was cow’s milk. Daily drinking 650 milliliters of milk is a “risk factor for iron deficiency,” according to another pediatric journal. [Pediatrics 1982, 1989; Journal of Pediatric Child Health Aug/04] 

STOP EAR INFECTIONS NOW
Dr. Mercola adds that milk is “the primary cause of recurrent ear infections in children.” The $3,000 surgery that inserts tubes into the eardrums of infants to treat recurrent ear infections is now the leading surgical procedure in the USA. “Most children who have this procedure will suffer long term hearing losses,” Dr. Mercola says. “Over 50% of these children will improve and have no further ear infections if they just stop drinking their milk.” 

Like Big Tobacco, the Big Dairy Board spends hundreds of millions of dollars every year convincing Americans we will drop dead if we do not keep suckling like calves on a manufactured product our bodies cannot digest that makes many of us so chronically ill we think our constant aches and exhaustion are normal. The propaganda has worked so well, many adults believe they need to consume daily hits of milk to “stay healthy” and keep their bones from snapping like dried pretzels. 

“NOTHING could be further from the truth!” Cohen shouts. He’s right. If your fondest desire is to remove lots of calcium from your body, drink lots of milk. The high levels of phosphorous in each glass prevent your body from absorbing the calcium in the milk. And since milk does not contains comparable amounts of magnesium needed to utilize calcium, milk drinkers are twice out of luck. 

Even worse, the unfamiliar protein in cow’s milk leaches calcium from the bones you thought you were protecting by drinking all that milk. All that unusable cow calcium builds up on arterial walls, choking the blood supply to your heart and brain. It also contributes to arthritis, and can even be converted into kidney stones. 

So if you are a post-menopausal woman determined to experience Osteoporosis, drink milk. Its unusable protein will draw the calcium right out of your bones. We’re talking amounts massive enough “to trigger a 50% loss of calcium in the urine,” Cohen has found. 

One option is to take properly balanced, high-quality calcium-magnesium supplements. And eat your veggies. “It is possible to obtain all your calcium from dark green vegetables,” says Dr. Mercola. “Where do you think the cows get their’s from?” 

The darker the veg, the better. 

MAD COWBOY AT THE OPRAH 
Oprah Winfrey will no longer touch burgers or beef. Not after interviewing ex-cattle rancher Howard Lyman “live” on one of the most popular shows in the galaxy. 

“Being from Montana, I would have rather been caught riding a stolen horse than be called a vegetarian,” Lyman told Oprah’s audience. Instead of selling hamburgers, Lyman talked about E. coli, salmonella and mad cow disease. As Ellen White explains in Ministry of Healing, “People are continually eating flesh that is filled with tuberculosis and cancerous germs.” 

And as Ans Gail Eisnitz elaborates in Slaughterhouse: “Federal records show that major meat packers smoked rancid meat to cover foul odor, or marinated it to disguise slime and smell…hams were soaked in chlorine baths to remove slime and odor, and red dye was added to beef to make it appear fresh. Plant managers repeatedly fought to allow ‘some contamination’ such as feces, grease, hydraulic oil, maggots, metal, floor residue and rancid meat…”

After hearing Lyman lasso facts like these, Oprah stunned tens of millions of viewers by declaring, “I’ve eaten my last hamburger.” 

As that magic moment, cow futures – even the future of cows – plopped. Moments later, the panicked purveyors of mountains of rotten meat, along with their milk-mustachioed cohorts, sued the famous TV host and her ex-steak eating guest for damages exceeding the budgets of entire nations as viewers recoiled in horror and revulsion from Lyman’s revelations and Oprah’s advice.

As Cohn comments: “You consume those diseased animals that no longer produce enough milk to guarantee a profit to the dairy farmer. Every cow milked in America ends her life in a slaughterhouse, her broken and diseased body contaminated with virus and bacteria. Such is the nature of the stressed life she lives. When cows are diseased with cancer or Paratuberculosis, leukemia or other sicknesses, that’s when they are sent to their final fate. Your dinner plate. The living tumors are cut from the dying animal and reserved for food which you feed your cats and dogs.”

It is still illegal in 13 states to criticize an agricultural product. 

HURRICANE WINDS OF CHANGE
Can we afford to keep swallowing such lethal lies as factory meat eating and milk drinking? Look around. See how fast climate change is drying up and washing away the croplands that manage to survive new pests bulking up on genetically-modified plants hit with ever-stronger applications of pesticides. 

Now do the math: It takes 70 calories of energy to produce one calorie of meat. It also takes 16 pounds of grain – enough to feed 32 people – to produce one pound of meat. Since there are currently more cows on Earth than people, it stands to reason that if there were no cows, everyone could eat well. I’m not suggesting an immediate cull of what Ed abbey termed, “slow elk.” I am proposing we stop eating cows. And cellblock chickens.

Increasing prices of raw materials, demand for dairy products in emerging markets and the drive for health and wellness, are putting pressure on dairy manufacturers to develop innovative but cost effective products. Key growth strategies for many of the top companies include strengthening brand portfolios and expansion in growth markets such China and India.

The Top 10 Dairy Companies is a report that analyzes the innovation and growth strategies of the top 10 players in the dairy industry. This report identifies the product areas that the top 10 players are seeking to develop and also highlights the respective markets where each individual company is looking to grow. It also examines the comparative strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats facing the world’s leading dairy companies. Benchmark your performance against the leading dairy companies using market share and financial data in this report…

Key findings from this report…

• The global dairy industry is highly fragmented, with the top 10 companies representing about 22.4% of the total market size in 2006.
• The global dairy market reached $402.5bn in 2006, representing a five-year CAGR of 3.7% and it is forecast to reach about $487.2bn in 2011, representing a five-year CAGR of 4.9%.
• The leading dairy companies are focussing innovation on organic and functional dairy. Other latest developments have included products that are low fat, contain natural ingredients and no preservatives.
• Nestlé was the global industry leader with a 5.0% market share in 2006, followed by Danone (2.5%) and Dean Foods (2.4%).
• Parmalat’s dairy business recorded revenues of R3,546m ($4,861m) for the fiscal year ended December 2007, an increase of 6.1% over 2006. Higher revenues in fiscal 2007 were mainly due to higher sales volume in Canada and Italy. The dairy revenues accounted for 91.8% of its consolidated revenues in 2007.

Some key issues answered by this report…

• Growing demand for dairy products in Asia is driving global milk prices. The increase in demand has been fuelled by population growth, increases in personal income and Western-style influences on the Asian diet (demand for non-native foods such as cheese slices, yogurt and skimmed milk among young urbanites).
• Contracting European supply of milk. The milk quota system (introduced in 1984) has placed a limit on the amount of milk produced each year by EU dairy farmers. EU-25 milk production declined 0.3% during September 2004-07 and 1.4% in September 2007.
• Adverse climatic conditions in Australia and New Zealand. Australia and New Zealand are the two major milk exporters in the world. In 2005, both countries witnessed a drop in milk productiondue to adverse climatic conditions, with Australia’s output falling 0.3% and New Zealand down 4.0% year-on-year. Decline in output of world’s major milk exporters will impact the global milk supply and therefore, will lead to a rise in milk prices.

Some key questions answered by this report…

• What are the trends in the global dairy industry?
• Who are the top 11 to 20 companies?
• Which regions and segments offer the leading dairy companies the greatest growth opportunities?
• How do the leading dairy companies compare in terms of financial performance and coverage by country and category?
• What are the key strategies of the leading dairy companies and how do these strategies drive revenue and market share?

This new report will enable you to…

• Benchmark the world’s leading dairy companies with this report’s ranking of the top 10 companies, detailing their financial performance and future prospects.
• Identify and target future growth areas from this report’s analysis of the acquisitions and divestments made by leading dairy companies and their strategies for growth.
• Understand the key trends in the dairy market and the impact that they are expected to have, using this report.
• Enhance your product development strategies with this report’s analysis of the leading dairy companies’ innovation and NPD strategies and recent product launches.

Whether or not dogs can eat dairy products such as milk, Yoghurt and cheese is one of the most commonly asked questions from new dog owners. Unfortunately there is no concise answer to this, since individual dogs vary.

The most abundant sugar in dairy products is lactose, which is a disaccharide that consists of bonded galactose and glucose fragments and which requires an enzyme called lactase to be able to digest it. The enzyme cleaves the lactose molecule into its two subunits, the simple sugars glucose and galactose, which can then be readily absorbed. When a mammal’s body does not secrete the lactase enzyme from their intestinal villi, they are unable to digest lactose and may suffer from unusual digestive symptoms.

All mammals have high levels of lactase when they are young – they do, after all, drink their mother’s milk. However, this ability to digest lactose generally decreases with age because most mammals do not drink milk in the wild after weaning. For example, there is decreased lactose tolerance in up to 75% of humans (this rises to 90% in some Asian and African countries).

The amount of lactase present in the digestive system of any given dog is thought to vary as widely as it does in humans. Even lactose-intolerant dogs probably usually have small amounts of lactase activity in their gut. When there is insufficient lactase activity to process the amount of ingested lactose, the lactose is not broken down into it’s constituent components and is therefore not absorbed by the dog’s intestine. When lactose is not absorbed by the body, unusual digestive symptoms can arise and the animal is said to suffer from “Lactose Intolerance”.

Symptoms of Lactose Intolerance include bloating, abdominal cramps and diarrhea. If your dog suffers from any of these symptoms after consuming dairy products, you should eradicate dairy products from his diet completely. If he suffers no ill-effects, then he is probably tolerant of lactose and there is therefore no inherent danger in feeding dairy products. However, they should always be fed sparingly as large amounts may cause symptoms of lactose-intolerance even where the dog is tolerant. Dairy products, specifically cheese, also have a very high fat content. Yoghurt is often recommended when taking antibiotics because antibiotics indiscriminately kill gut bacteria which temporarily disrupts the digestive functions. Feeding “live” Yoghurt that contains bacteria is thought to help replace the beneficial bacteria in the gut.

If you are keen to make sure that your dog is being fed enough calcium in his diet, but your dog is Lactose Intolerant or you simply do not want to feed him to much dairy, there are other ways to provide him with calcium. Spinach is an excellent source of calcium, and one cup of cooked spinach has a comparable calcium content to 1 cup of reduced fat milk. A cup of spinach can be easily mixed into a bowl of dog food and most dogs will not have any objection to eating it. There are also many calcium supplements available for dogs – ask your vet for specific recommendations for your dog.

Most of us have been raised on milk. Not only that, many of us have been raised with the “Basic Four Food Groups” and other dietary guidelines that recommend milk as one or our daily food needs. However, there is much we need to understand about milk and how if affects our bodies, what it does and does not provide, and how today’s dairy milk differs from the milk that used to be found on the farm or in the past.
Let’s first understand that we as humans are mammals. We are the only mammals who drink milk after we are weaned. We are the only mammals who drink milk from another mammal. We are the only mammals who drink pasteurized milk!
Humans and other mammals were created to produce nourishment for their young. That’s how it was meant to be and that’s how it should be. Horses produce milk to feed their young. Sheep produce milk to feed their young. Cows produce milk to feed their young. Humans produce milk to feed their young too. That is nature’s way of starting a baby on the right and proper nourishment. But none of the mammals are meant to produce milk forever. We/they begin to dry up after a year or so. In order to produce more milk, it takes producing another baby. Yes, cows and goats have to be bred on a yearly basis in order to continue to produce milk – it wouldn’t happen any other way. (And by the way, I’m glad I am not a cow having to get pregnant on a yearly basis for my milk production, with my new baby yanked away from me as soon as it arrives!)
Today’s dairies greatly differ from the farm milk cow when I was a child. I remember my father going out and rounding up our milk cow, morning and evening, to milk her. A dairy milk cow today does not need to be rounded up twice daily. They will usually come in voluntarily three or more times a day! Why? Because they are fed hormones as well as their own bi-products to increase milk production and are so engorged that their milk bags often drag, or almost drag, the ground. They come to get milked to find relief. And just as engorgement causes breast infections in humans, it will likewise in cows. They are given good doses of antibiotics and vaccines to “keep them healthy”. If not, there is blood and pus that will show up in the milk. All milk is tested in every dairy before it is taken each time. They will know where the blood and puss level is. Don’t worry though. You won’t be drinking anything but “Grade A” milk from the store. However, any “Grade B” milk (which can have up to 5% blood and pus) will be made into cheese. Rest assured, if your cheeses, sour cream, cream, etc. does not say “Grade A”, then you know it is most likely from “Grade B” milk.
Nut, soy and rice milks have often been discounted in being termed “substitutes” to the real thing. However, it is all in how you look at it. Would you rather be nursing from the utter of a cow to get that milk to pour on your cereal, or would you rather get it from raw nuts, soybeans, rice or other vegetable proteins? These other “milks” do differ in protein, calcium, fat, and nutritional content, but they can be great sources of nutrition.
If we would focus more on these kinds of foods in our diets – leafy greens, whole grains, beans, sprouts, raw nuts and seeds –instead of the meat, milk, fast foods, processed and prepared foods (that are high in calories yet lacking real digestible nutrition) we would not only feel better, but we would look better (having better weight control), and not have to experience all the diseases and disorders that we do as a people. Good sound nutrition from wholesome foods is the real key to better health!

Understanding Milk’s important in life For Health in Life.

Dairy milk is an important food source for many people. It provides a lot of nutrients that the body needs in order to stay healthy. But there are also some people who might not be able to enjoy the benefits of dairy milk and all the other dairy products because they are either allergic to it or are lactose intolerant. Since dairy milk contains lactose as well as some proteins that cause allergic reactions to some, using it as a nutrient source may not be a preferred choice for some people. But there are other milk alternatives available that would do for some people.

Lactose Free Milk
For those who are lactose intolerant and still would like to consume dairy products, there are alternative lactose free dairy products available. This type of alternative is only good for those people who are lactose intolerant. It may still contain certain proteins that still may cause allergies in some people.

Soy Milk
Soy milk is considered today as the most widely available milk alternative in the market. It is also high in protein and is a very good alternative for dairy milk especially in cooking and in baking. For those who wish to use it as an alternative, make sure that you like it since it can also have a strong and distinctive taste to it.

Nut Based Milk
Nut milk is also considered as a good alternative to dairy. Almond milk is one of the most common of such alternative milks around. They blend well to baked foods. Nut milks are also known to be a good source of healthy fats as well as Vitamin E. Just like soy milk, they also contain certain proteins that may cause allergies in some people. Those who wish to use nut milk as an alternative should be aware and make sure that they aren’t allergic to it.

Rice Milk
Rice milk is a good alternative for those people who are allergic to ordinary dairy milk. Rice milk do not contain most of the proteins found in ordinary dairy milk and is considered by most families as a good alternative for children allergic to milk to drink. They are not as creamy and may not be as nutritious unless they are heavily fortified. They are also not well suited for use in baking. But rice milk do has a very pleasant taste that most children would love and would be ideal as a good alternative milk beverage.

Oat Milk
Oat milk contains more proteins than rice milk, making it more suitable as a nutritional alternative to dairy milk. It has a mild and nutty taste and is a suitable match for cereals. Oat milk is not suitable for baking and cooking. Those who are sensitive to avenin protein should not consider oat milk as an alternative.
