A friend's cousin came to visit from Chicago - and was grossed out by carrots pulled out of the muddy garden. Washed, peeled, and served at dinner she still didn't want to eat them. People are so separated from how food grows - meat, and veggies.
Imagine a patient bringing you fresh organic eggs, raw milk, and unpasteurized cheese...or imagine bartering for those wonderful items! I love that story. Thank you for doing what you do. Love from Germany 🇩🇪
It reminds me of little house on the prairie. You give the doctor eggs, a chicken or fresh baked pie for a visit. I noticed that doctor had a bit of a belly on him too like 5-10lbs.
Thankful you mentioned people who are lean and need to keep up their weight and add in milk to the diet. I haven't drank milk for six years now, so I'll start adding that into my diet. Even though I eat cheese, a lot, it wasn't enough on this carnivore diet.
I always craved milk growing up. Mom was fully brainwashed in the veggies and whole grains camp. We had meat everyday but it was so overcooked and dull that we all hated it. I would swig 1/3 of a gallon per day straight from the jug. I now know why I craved it, fat soluble vitamins. At one point mom tried to switch to 2% milk, we wouldn't drink it. I truly believe full fat milk was my savior. Now I'm 55 and I love heavy cream diluted with a little cold water.
You reminded me of the stories that family members told me about when I was little. They said that when I wanted milk that I would go throughout the house trying to moo like a cow to get the point across until I had learned how to talk. My mother said that I even did for a few years after learning how to talk. Still love to drink WHOLE MILK. Even more so since discovering FRESH MILK.
I still have weight to lose but cutting out dairy leaves you with a really narrow diet. I’ve cut out the milk, cut out the cheese, cut out the butter, cut out the sour cream, cut out the cream fresh ........ which leaves me with Fish, poultry, meat, eggs and a few veg. Almost unsustainable as I don’t even like meat that much and pretty tasteless sometimes if you go light on the fat. It’s not true that this way of eating is easy. It might be if you have friends, family and a dr that supports it but without those things I constantly feel like a freak. I hear and believe the science but eating out with friends is hard and I’ve just stoped going to the dr altogether. Almond milk has no carbohydrate. It may not be perfect but it makes coffee really palatable as a bridge for me without the calories of milk. My health is improved I’m sure but I miss eating with others, or taking along my fatty meat while everyone else is eating colourful fruit and veg and rice and looks at me as if I’m a crack pot. Once you have seen you can’t unsee. There’s no going back but i’d be lying if I said that some days I wish I didn’t know ...........
Drinking warm raw milk is a rare joy for us city folk. A couple of comments from me - I have heard others in this community discuss cows milk and how it contains growth factors suitable of the rapid growth of a calf which is far in excess of human needs. Should adult humans moderate consumption to guard against overstimulation of growth and to allow for the rest and repair periods necessary for things like autophagy? Also, should milk drinkers seek out casein A2 milk in preference to A1? Or is this difference negligible? As usual, loving the content and many thanks for continuing to produce it 🙏
By the way Doctor, when you drink raw milk, the milk itself will have lactase enzymes in it to help us with breakdown. Only when we heat milk do we destroy the lactase in the milk and hence we need to depend on our digestive system to breakdown the lactose. You may want to look into this.
Thanks for highlighting the almost never discussed fact that one can become lactose intolerant if dairy hasn't been consumed for a long time. At least for some, it appears that this intolerance can become permanent. Clearly something that should be taken into account when thinking about abandoning dairy (when not for allergic reasons), but is simply not known, or at least talked about. I remember when I was small visiting a family farm run by relatives, and was given raw milk straight from the cow. I wasn't used to it, the fact that it was warm and had a different flavour made me not like it. The farm is long gone now, can't go back and try again 😞 One last thing: the more the milk has been fermented, the more the lactose has been digested by bacteria. So well fermented milk should be easier on lactose intolerant people, and cheese that has been allowed to mature for a long time will have so little lactose left that it will be negligible.
Thank you for this video! I’ve gotten my BMI down to 17% and love my dairy. My favourite is steaming 1/2 pure cream and 1/2 full cream milm to make my flat white. So creamy and delicious!
I am so happy to have found you. Dairy is my absolute favorite food group, and for so long people say it's bad. I am now at my goal weight, so I can have it, and it literally keeps me in this way of eating. I don't over eat it, either, but I can now have enough to be happy.
I can certainly relate to drinking milk straight from the cow. The best I can get now is "organic", but it's better than nothing. Every now and then if I'm having coffee made with milk I'll add a knob of butter to it. Also, to the people concerned about weight gain, adjust your consumption to suit, you certainly won't be consuming anywhere near the amount that a calf does.
Had my first kidney stone after cutting dairy. Oops. I didn't realize I should have also cut high oxalate foods. Also, had taken H2 blocker which may have contributed. I'll bring back the dairy slowly.
I know of several vegetarian who were not dairy eaters or milk drinkers and they got kidney stones. People fail to realize disease is not diet specific as much as it is lifestyle specific. People can sell us what they like but truth is extreme of anything is bad unless going extreme might help someone's condition. whether animal products or plant no matter how pure or organic they are, mother nature designed everything with its good as well as side effects. It's just there is not enough research out there and it never comes out front to public that every single person dies at the end with a disease. I almost feel no extreme path is good. but if we know things thar might heal us, we can use it with wisdom for ourselves
@@karunamayiholisticinc Very well thought-out response and I appreciate you taking the time. My Mom is a moderator and alive and kicking at 91. I on the other hand thought donuts should come in pairs. I learned the painful way to mind my calcium rich foods if I'm eating high oxalate foods.
My dad used to get kidney stones bad. To the point that he had to have them surgical removed. At first he was told to stop drinking milk. That didn't help. Then he was told to quit eating dairy products all together. That didn't help either. After removing any milk products whatsoever which about drove him crazy; his favorite dessert was ice cream. That didn't help either. But he kept on drinking his Mountain Dews. After about three more kidney stones that's when they asked him to stop drinking the Mountain Dews, that was the last time he ever had a kidney stone.
I have an appointment with you in early September. I have been keto for 3 years. It is so funny you are talking about this, because I was getting terrible charlie horses even though I took Liquid IV every day and added pink salt and drank 80 oz of water each day. I did some research and decide to try drinking milk before bed. It worked! Only issue is - I need to drink 2 6oz glasses of milk a day and it is killing my keto and I gained weight. But without the milk - charlie horses. See you soon!
Any time I have milk, HWC or something with milk protein in it my face breaks out like bad cystic inflamed acne. Is that an intolerance or an allergy?? Butter seems to be okay but I only do about 1 tbsp a day.
Do you have a similar reaction to raw milk, or raw milk products? Pasteurizing milk denatures (=modifies) the proteins and deactivates essential enzymes. Thus, pasteurized milk classifies as processed food.
@@PeeVee001 I've never had raw milk. But not sure if it's legal in Oklahoma. I eat cheese and get the same result...I think. I am still trying to figure it out.
Such a helpful video, thank you for sharing. I recently reintroduced full fat Jersey milk and have been really enjoying it. It’s a fantastic post-workout drink. I heard that the Maasai in Kenya drink 5-7 litres of milk a day and they’re incredibly fit, so I’m experimenting with lots of jersey milk to see if it helps my training and general energy levels.
@@tanyasydney2235 Numerous research papers have shown quite the opposite, Mann’s landmark study for instance identified “almost no heart disease at all” amongst the Maasai.
Jersey cows have richer milk than most breeds and it’s said to look more yellowish too. Grocery store milk is of course homogenized as well as pasteurized (and I suspect it’s always at least partly skimmed). Homogenization is… interesting. The fat globules are broken up in rather an ingenious way into exceedingly tiny ones. I’m not sure if I could enjoy raw unhomogenized milk from a Jersey…
Question for you Dr. Cywes regarding dairy and weight gain. What if instead of giving up dairy, you just limited the other foods you are eating? Would that work too?
If I test my blood sugars after having my meal what response should I get to know I’m helping insulin suppression , what figure is good to know I’ve had an adequate insulin rise. Thanks 🙏
Will drinking raw cream prevent the inflammation I get when drinking high heat pasteurized (the most available in stores) or low heat (gently) pasteurized cream? Real cheese, sour cream and butter don't seem to cause the inflammation like the regular cream does.
Both pasturised milk as well as raw milk inflames me. In fct, raw milk is even worse for some reason. Wish it weren't so, casue I could live on just raw milk.
@@tanyasydney2235 heavy cream is my favorite! I guess I'm going to have to cut way back on it (or stop using it entirely) to rid myself of my arthritis inflammation. How depressing!
What do you think about the (natural) growth hormone in milk? Isn't it too much for adult humans? Can it increase the risk of cancer cells grow faster?
Jersey cows have the best milk you can get. More milk solids and way more cream. Skiming cream off still leaves better milk than store bought. I had a jersey for milk when raising my kids
Dr. Cywes, you keep making me smarter..I’m gunna take yer job…😜 Seriously though, your lectures keep me on my toes philosophically..dogma is bad..religion needs to be based on truth.. And I plan on keeping on my regenerative farming path
I’ve always been a dairy consumer, more so when I was a kid, but even now I always have cream in my coffee every day and cheese everyday. But about 10 years ago, I first noticed that when I drank an occasional glass of milk, I would get horrible gas for about an hour or two. I tried lactose free milk and did not have the same gas problem. So even though I consistently and constantly have dairy on the daily, I still cannot “build up” tolerance to milk
I recently heard that if you are gluten intolerant you should stay away from dairy as well because the casein protein structure is similar enough to that of gluten, that it can trigger the same response - is this true?
Strict carnivore here but I drink too much coffee and cream. The cream stalled the weight loss and coffee is not good for healing my gut and microbiome. It's extremely difficult to give up coffee on strict carnivore. Also, coffee is acidic. I healed my awful GERD with ACV but to much coffee gives me heartburn because of the acid in it. My only carb intake is from cream. Cream produces phlegm as well. I can drink cream by the glassful it's so delicious. I'll be trying raw milk for my coffee.
How much will blood glucose go up after consuming milk I was 85 at 5am put 6 oz whole milk 2 oz heavy cream in my latte at 6am blood sugar went to 113 in an hour
Will do! This morning I was 83 glucose and 1.5 ketones at 5am had latte at 5:30 am rechecked numbers at 7:30 I was 103 glucose and 1.3 ketones I will continue to watch and track to see. Maybe I will drink a latte later in the day and check numbers at 1 he post 2hrs and then 3 hrs. Glucose and ketones great during the day 85-90ish glucose and ketones in the 2’s
Does milk have a place in one with type 2 diabetes/metabolic syndrome who is at their goal weight? Diabetes and high blood pressure in remission; triglycerides still high, HDL still low. It's my understanding one gets an "insulin bump" every time one eats an adequate amount of protein.
When I eat raw cow milk, even A2/A2, I get constipated. I even tried making kefir from it. I have tried it many different times and the same thing. I have not had it for a few years now. My gut is now healed from being on carnivore for 2 years. I may give it a try again. I would love to be able to have some.
Be sure you D level is at 65-80ng and that you have not killed your Good Gut Bacteria by having Low D.... anywhere under 40ng will lose the microbiome that grows the B vitamins in the gut and causes all kinds of problems... look up Dr. Stasha Gominak who shows how to reseed the B's in your gut.
What about camel and Buffalo milk in lieu of cow milk? In my home country it is said that buffalo milk (A2) is nutritionally more heavier (more fat) than cow milk, and the sequence of nutritional values (specially fat) of milk is buffalo, cow, goat. As for camel milk, it is said that it aids in avoiding diabetes. Infact i consumed camel milk and homemade Greek yogurt made from buffalo milk often during my journey to lower my hba1c and it helped. I would like to read the opinion of doctor cywes and the viewers.
When I was at junior school in the UK, not long after id left South Africa, we used to have a little bottle of milk every morning. It was full fat. Then a women called Thatcher came into power and stopped it.
I love any type of dairy as I grow up with raw milk,butter etc. I am Carnivore and I could eat dairy every day as I did in the beginning but now every time I have dairy(cream,cheese...) a part from upset stomach, feeling nauseous my knee is getting really hot and red! And on top of that my Hot flashes are unbearable 😫 any thoughts? I really would like to be able consume dairy again.
@@marilyngoldie5946 No it isn't juice. With juice, you would be squeezing the liquid out of the nut. It is not the juice of the nut. To make nut milk, you blend the nut in water. It's a shake or a smoothie.
I have primarily sinus issues and phlegm in my throat when I drink milk. I've been unable to get raw milk for more than 15 years. I have less of a response to A2 milk, but there is still a response. I do not know how I would currently respond to Raw milk at this point, but I would be willing to try. I used to buy raw goat's milk from a dairy around an hour away in a neighboring state. They no longer sell their milk because they mostly retired.
Does anyone know why I might get itchy skin--feels like I'm being pricked with needles all over my body--when I drink grassfed raw milk But this never happens when I drink grocery store milk???
Raw Whole Unpasteurized milk is illegal here...but one of the local grocery stores is owned by people who grew up here & they still sell it, supplied from the last surviving local farm...they just don't advertise it.
@@robertcywes2966 thanks for that tip, I'll give it a try. But first I want to try the real thing which I can get about 45 min away in PA. No more "plant juice" for me.
I was in a stuck phase for months and had decided my body was just happy there bc I had tried different strategies to no avail. Then about three weeks ago, I found a local pasture products farm coop and a raw dairy farm to source food. I didn’t drink milk but used the cream for coffee and whatnot. We also had purchased some very local honey which I didn’t plan on using for myself but had gotten a cold and terrible cough so I started utilizing 1 tsp a day of the honey. I don’t know if these are the catalysts or not but they are the only changes and I started dropping weight like crazy. I’ve dropped 10 pounds in the last two weeks. I swear it’s bc of the good bugs coming from the raw dairy and the lack of the gums and stabilizers and pasteurization from the crap I buy in the store. These things are a little more expensive than the crap in the store but the quality is so much better, it actually stretches farther and is 100% worth it. We also get pastured meat, especially ground beef bc it’s the cheapest of the cuts and I swear it expands in size during cooking instead of shrinking like grocery store beef so the recipe that takes two pounds of store ground beef only takes one pound of the grassfinished ground beef which makes it the same cost for me. And I’ve decided that even if I can’t afford the better eggs and meat each week, I will not compromise on the raw dairy. I wish we could get a cow but it isnt feasible for us rn but when or if I get the chance, I will 100% jump on it and I can’t wait for the chickens we got about four months ago to start sharing those beautiful full flavor eggs with us either.
Hey Dr - I remember when I first started this journey I found video of yours and you spoke of a Milk drink you give your older son, which was regular milk and half n half? Or something like that. Can you set me straight on what that is? My son is a athlete and needs to gain some weight. I’d love to give him something like that.. thanks!
What is the difference between cows that produce A1 or A2 milk? Also, here in Georgia dairy farmers can only sell fresh milk with a label that says, "PET USE ONLY". Is there a problem with me drinking it? Hopefully there isn't, it tastes too good 😋.
Milk is not bad. Is just not appropiate for most adults (unless you need to gain weight or are active a lot). Milk (even cow's milk) is good for children. I just need to build up lactose tolerance (whole milk I can barely tolerlate, skim milk is a no-no for me). Ehh, I love milk.
But in the animal kingdom species specific milk consumption ends when the animal has grown. Why are humans any differant? Why do adult humans need milk?
I am a shot putter. When i want to lean out and limit strength development I cut milk. When I want to increase strength and gain muscle I use Milk. I find absolutely no issue using pasteurised milk in the context of the carnivore diet. I drink 1 litre a day and don't gain excess body fat. I think people have really created an irrational fear of milk. Growing up on a farm I don't see fat mammalian babies. Human babies get fat but as soon as they start crawling and walking the fat drops off while drinking milk even when switched to cows milk. I think the people who have the most trouble with milk are inactive individuals or those with an intolerance.
Ohh yeah! Jersey cows have Ultra rich cream...way more than holsteins...**i too grew up in a farming community** & i Loved our farm with every fiber of my being..i worked on it from dawn till dusk & beyond...day started at 4 AM & ended around 11 PM....seems..i was the only one who did love it..but because i am a female..i was not asked when they decided to sell. i didn't even get notified until it was already done. They knew i would move heaven & earth to keep it. & they wanted that money & more free time. Karma?..cos, instead...they got taken, sold it for a fraction of what it was worth. Of course..i got nothing, the joke was on them cos i would have refused it anyway had they offered me a share. Years later they realized what We lost.......... it was Virtually self sustaining...we had multiple gardens...an apple orchard... & many massive berry patches of every kind common to this region...a little river ran through it, for fishing & swimming...2 walnut trees..and a cherry tree. Once we even had 2 pear trees but they got struck by lightening & died. When we had that farm....we were so healthy.Once it was gone....we began to decline. No substitutions.
I love milk products, raw milk cheese, heavy cream, I live in Austria, I am very lucky, our cows stands often on the grass, great milk products :D I dont eat usually meat, so for me protein source is dairy. I eat also eggs a lot and sometimes fish, I dont live otherwise without dairy ! :D :D :D I dont have problems, only when I eat carbs or what etc. No one talk about that, only lactose intolarate.... soooo stupid!

Both pasturised milk as well as raw milk inflames me. In fct, raw milk is even worse for some reason. Wish it weren't so, casue I could live on just raw milk.
@@tanyasydney2235 heavy cream is my favorite! I guess I'm going to have to cut way back on it (or stop using it entirely) to rid myself of my arthritis inflammation. How depressing!
In Canada one can buy milk with added lactase - "lactose-free"
What do you think about the (natural) growth hormone in milk? Isn't it too much for adult humans? Can it increase the risk of cancer cells grow faster?
no real evidence
Love your videos. Awesome 👍
I‘m having my homemade kefir every day. Still have another 20 pounds I want to use so wonder whether I have to cut that out for a while...
cut dairy for a month. experiment
Can milk be added to coffee?
Jersey cows have the best milk you can get. More milk solids and way more cream. Skiming cream off still leaves better milk than store bought. I had a jersey for milk when raising my kids
Dr. Cywes, you keep making me smarter..I’m gunna take yer job…😜
Seriously though, your lectures keep me on my toes philosophically..dogma is bad..religion needs to be based on truth..
And I plan on keeping on my regenerative farming path
love regenfarming
I’ve always been a dairy consumer, more so when I was a kid, but even now I always have cream in my coffee every day and cheese everyday. But about 10 years ago, I first noticed that when I drank an occasional glass of milk, I would get horrible gas for about an hour or two. I tried lactose free milk and did not have the same gas problem. So even though I consistently and constantly have dairy on the daily, I still cannot “build up” tolerance to milk
I recently heard that if you are gluten intolerant you should stay away from dairy as well because the casein protein structure is similar enough to that of gluten, that it can trigger the same response - is this true?
Excellent video doc. I gleaned some gems from this. Thanks 🙏
What about yogurt from organic A2 milk?? I have Crohn's.
Strict carnivore here but I drink too much coffee and cream. The cream stalled the weight loss and coffee is not good for healing my gut and microbiome. It's extremely difficult to give up coffee on strict carnivore. Also, coffee is acidic. I healed my awful GERD with ACV but to much coffee gives me heartburn because of the acid in it. My only carb intake is from cream. Cream produces phlegm as well. I can drink cream by the glassful it's so delicious. I'll be trying raw milk for my coffee.
You can always look for low acid coffee beans. There are many. And the darker the roast, the better, as there's less acidity. So drink espresso.
Very clear. Thanks.
How much will blood glucose go up after consuming milk I was 85 at 5am put 6 oz whole milk 2 oz heavy cream in my latte at 6am blood sugar went to 113 in an hour

Is whey protein powder a good source of protein?
We love goat milk. We grew up with both fresh goat and cow milk… and eggs. I completely agree.
Does milk have a place in one with type 2 diabetes/metabolic syndrome who is at their goal weight? Diabetes and high blood pressure in remission; triglycerides still high, HDL still low. It's my understanding one gets an "insulin bump" every time one eats an adequate amount of protein.
Depends on fasting insulin and A1c. But may be fine
Current A1C is 5.3, not sure about my fasting insulin; you're gonna check it in November. Thanks for the response ❤️
When I eat raw cow milk, even A2/A2, I get constipated. I even tried making kefir from it. I have tried it many different times and the same thing. I have not had it for a few years now. My gut is now healed from being on carnivore for 2 years. I may give it a try again. I would love to be able to have some.
Be sure you D level is at 65-80ng and that you have not killed your Good Gut Bacteria by having Low D.... anywhere under 40ng will lose the microbiome that grows the B vitamins in the gut and causes all kinds of problems... look up Dr. Stasha Gominak who shows how to reseed the B's in your gut.
Thank you Dr cywes!
What about camel and Buffalo milk in lieu of cow milk?
In my home country it is said that buffalo milk (A2) is nutritionally more heavier (more fat) than cow milk, and the sequence of nutritional values (specially fat) of milk is buffalo, cow, goat.
As for camel milk, it is said that it aids in avoiding diabetes.
Infact i consumed camel milk and homemade Greek yogurt made from buffalo milk often during my journey to lower my hba1c and it helped.
I would like to read the opinion of doctor cywes and the viewers.
When I was at junior school in the UK, not long after id left South Africa, we used to have a little bottle of milk every morning. It was full fat. Then a women called Thatcher came into power and stopped it.
I love any type of dairy as I grow up with raw milk,butter etc. I am Carnivore and I could eat dairy every day as I did in the beginning but now every time I have dairy(cream,cheese...) a part from upset stomach, feeling nauseous my knee is getting really hot and red! And on top of that my Hot flashes are unbearable 😫 any thoughts? I really would like to be able consume dairy again.
start w butter and hard cheese
@@robertcywes2966 I wil definitely try again. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much dear Doctor ✨🙏
Can you make the same video on cream and cheese also ?
Already done. See video on dairy
It not juice. Juice comes from the nut/seed. Nut milk is the nut mixed with water, it's not juice.
Well it kind of is. I made my own nut milk... It is the juice of the nut.
@@marilyngoldie5946
No it isn't juice. With juice, you would be squeezing the liquid out of the nut. It is not the juice of the nut. To make nut milk, you blend the nut in water. It's a shake or a smoothie.
I would love to drink milk - but inflammation is worse if I do.
Even raw milk? Genuinely curious. I am not trying to question how it affects you.
@@mrsfarmwife84I hate to try ... the possible consequences aren't worth it!
I have primarily sinus issues and phlegm in my throat when I drink milk. I've been unable to get raw milk for more than 15 years. I have less of a response to A2 milk, but there is still a response. I do not know how I would currently respond to Raw milk at this point, but I would be willing to try. I used to buy raw goat's milk from a dairy around an hour away in a neighboring state. They no longer sell their milk because they mostly retired.
Raw unpasteurised milk is said to slow your tolomers. Apparently.
Thank you Doc Cywes for Sharing this Important Information 👍🏻👊🏻🥩
Does anyone know why I might get itchy skin--feels like I'm being pricked with needles all over my body--when I drink grassfed raw milk But this never happens when I drink grocery store milk???
Does pasteurized milk protect against udder-pus?
Yes. But most machinemilked cows are clean
Raw Whole Unpasteurized milk is illegal here...but one of the local grocery stores is owned by people who grew up here & they still sell it, supplied from the last surviving local farm...they just don't advertise it.
Where do you live
@@dixiehuston4869 PA.
For those who can't purchase raw milk is there a next best alternative.
we mix whole milk w heavy cream. sad compromise but...
@@robertcywes2966 thanks for that tip, I'll give it a try. But first I want to try the real thing which I can get about 45 min away in PA. No more "plant juice" for me.
I was in a stuck phase for months and had decided my body was just happy there bc I had tried different strategies to no avail. Then about three weeks ago, I found a local pasture products farm coop and a raw dairy farm to source food. I didn’t drink milk but used the cream for coffee and whatnot. We also had purchased some very local honey which I didn’t plan on using for myself but had gotten a cold and terrible cough so I started utilizing 1 tsp a day of the honey. I don’t know if these are the catalysts or not but they are the only changes and I started dropping weight like crazy. I’ve dropped 10 pounds in the last two weeks. I swear it’s bc of the good bugs coming from the raw dairy and the lack of the gums and stabilizers and pasteurization from the crap I buy in the store. These things are a little more expensive than the crap in the store but the quality is so much better, it actually stretches farther and is 100% worth it. We also get pastured meat, especially ground beef bc it’s the cheapest of the cuts and I swear it expands in size during cooking instead of shrinking like grocery store beef so the recipe that takes two pounds of store ground beef only takes one pound of the grassfinished ground beef which makes it the same cost for me. And I’ve decided that even if I can’t afford the better eggs and meat each week, I will not compromise on the raw dairy. I wish we could get a cow but it isnt feasible for us rn but when or if I get the chance, I will 100% jump on it and I can’t wait for the chickens we got about four months ago to start sharing those beautiful full flavor eggs with us either.
Hey Dr - I remember when I first started this journey I found video of yours and you spoke of a Milk drink you give your older son, which was regular milk and half n half? Or something like that. Can you set me straight on what that is?
My son is a athlete and needs to gain some weight. I’d love to give him something like that.. thanks!
I don't drink milk but I do eat cheese. If I stop all dairy products how will I get enough calcium for my daily recommended amount?
What is the difference between cows that produce A1 or A2 milk?
Also, here in Georgia dairy farmers can only sell fresh milk with a label that says, "PET USE ONLY".
Is there a problem with me drinking it?
Hopefully there isn't, it tastes too good 😋.
No, they have to put the label on due to State laws.
So it's ok to drink raw milk
Milk is not bad. Is just not appropiate for most adults (unless you need to gain weight or are active a lot). Milk (even cow's milk) is good for children. I just need to build up lactose tolerance (whole milk I can barely tolerlate, skim milk is a no-no for me). Ehh, I love milk.
But in the animal kingdom species specific milk consumption ends when the animal has grown. Why are humans any differant? Why do adult humans need milk?
Need vs want ....
Coorect. Growth, endurance, strength and micronutrients
I am always amazed at such arguments. Animals also eat feces and don"t use airplane tickets discounts :) so?
@@JeJe11 Yes! Quite a difference in those 2 words.
Milk is just another sources of nutrition, it's certainly not a need once weined.
Eggs and milk also make the perfect scrambled egg 👌🏻
Rob I enjoyed that one. Perhaps do one on another controversial food - peanuts?
@@yerrterrb8435 They are usually contaminated with aflatoxins. Valencia peanuts are best, if you're going to eat peanuts.
24 hour fermented A2 milk will sort you out.
I think the pasteurized milk is left over milk after they took the best part(cream) for cheese yogurt. Its scam
I drink 10oz of raw goats or cow milk with a scoop of chocolate collagen peptides and a raw egg yolk daily 💪
I am a shot putter. When i want to lean out and limit strength development I cut milk. When I want to increase strength and gain muscle I use Milk. I find absolutely no issue using pasteurised milk in the context of the carnivore diet. I drink 1 litre a day and don't gain excess body fat. I think people have really created an irrational fear of milk. Growing up on a farm I don't see fat mammalian babies. Human babies get fat but as soon as they start crawling and walking the fat drops off while drinking milk even when switched to cows milk. I think the people who have the most trouble with milk are inactive individuals or those with an intolerance.
Maybe I got some tainted raw milk but I found it absolutely disgusting. It tasted like I was eating low quality beef.
Ohh yeah! Jersey cows have Ultra rich cream...way more than holsteins...**i too grew up in a farming community** & i Loved our farm with every fiber of my being..i worked on it from dawn till dusk & beyond...day started at 4 AM & ended around 11 PM....seems..i was the only one who did love it..but because i am a female..i was not asked when they decided to sell. i didn't even get notified until it was already done. They knew i would move heaven & earth to keep it. & they wanted that money & more free time. Karma?..cos, instead...they got taken, sold it for a fraction of what it was worth. Of course..i got nothing, the joke was on them cos i would have refused it anyway had they offered me a share.
Years later they realized what We lost..........
it was Virtually self sustaining...we had multiple gardens...an apple orchard... & many massive berry patches of every kind common to this region...a little river ran through it, for fishing & swimming...2 walnut trees..and a cherry tree. Once we even had 2 pear trees but they got struck by lightening & died. When we had that farm....we were so healthy.Once it was gone....we began to decline.
No substitutions.
causes constipation in me, raw milk.
I love milk products, raw milk cheese, heavy cream, I live in Austria, I am very lucky, our cows stands often on the grass, great milk products :D I dont eat usually meat, so for me protein source is dairy. I eat also eggs a lot and sometimes fish, I dont live otherwise without dairy ! :D :D :D I dont have problems, only when I eat carbs or what etc. No one talk about that, only lactose intolarate.... soooo stupid!
You say you don't eat meat, but fish and eggs are meat
Milchbeasts: cattle, sheep, goat, buffalo, camel, yak, horse, donkey, reindeer.
This Oom is actually afrikaans😂😂
Yes, we know.
Why is the government trying to destroy Amish farmers? Did you see that story?
To buy up the land.
So we own nothing and are happy!

I like watching cows poop it is
I have never liked milk. It makes my mouth slimy, bah. Milk is for babies, to grow fast. I don't need to grow anymore. I am 52 and 1m82 tall 😉
