RE: The Story of Milk: Raw vs Processed

in #homesteading7 years ago

15 minutes from cow to consumption? Now we're talking! Thank you for sharing these stories!

I've heard that raw milk will spoil quickly if left refrigerated. That's how you can tell it's healthy - by how quickly it spoils! I believe many of the health problems people experience, like lactose intolerance, has to do with all the processing that our milk goes through. If we could get the lactase enzyme naturally occurring in the milk, this wouldn't be a problem.

isn't the lactose intolerance a genetic thing, initially most humans had it, then sometime shortly after agriculture was invented a mutation swept Europe that enabled humans to digest cow milk? Supposed to explain why so many Asians are lactose intolerant.
