Danger In Your Grocery Car: #5 "Milk, Does It really Make Your Body Good?"

First, what is homogenized milk mean? It means that "milk is physically altered to force the fat molecules to stay in suspension so that they don't rise to the top of the container and make the milk look spoiled."  (Grocery Warning, Mike Adams)   The homogenized milk looks appealing to the consumers, but some doctors and researchers think that homogenized fats "pose a risk to the cardiovascular health of human beings" (Grocery Warning, Mike Adams)

According to Elson Haas, M.D., Staying Healthy With Nutrition, "Milks are also processed products. This natural white substance that comes from cows is heated, treated, and diluted to make even the "normal" homogenized, pasteurized milk;often vitamin A and irradiated vitamin D are then added to "fortify" this food, which some erroneously consider a drink. It loses some vitamin E, biotin, B12, and other vitamins with pasteurization. In my clinical experience, homogenized, pasteurized milk and dairy fats seem to drive cholesterol to high levels."

Also, milk is the second most common food allergy. Russell Blaylock, M.D., Health and Nutrition Secrets That Can Save Your Life, noted that "Several studies have demonstrated that a protein in cow's milk closely resembles the molecular structure of the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin, called islet cell. Because the immune system confuses the two, it begins to attack the islet cells by mistake, leading to their destruction."

Furthermore, in 1994, FDA approved the use of rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone) to increase the production of milk. Unfortunately, rBGH increases the amount of pus, bacteria, and antibiotic contamination in the milk. According the the NotMilk.com, "Dairy scientists are aware that when one quart of milk is tainted with 400 million or more pus cells, some 35 percent of the milking cows in the herd are infected with mastitis."

The facts about cow's milk are;
*cow's milk is nutritionally different from human milk.
*cow's milk is designed to grow a hundred-pounds newborn calf to several hundred pounds with 24 months period.
*cow's milk is lack in magnesium and vitamin D.
*no other animal species drink another specie's milk other than humans.

So, next time when you see the advertisement of the celebrities or famous people with the white mustache, you might want to rethink about the saying, "Milk Does Body Good!"
