Guest guest Posted February 3, 2002 Report Share Posted February 3, 2002 Hello everyone, I don't dare drink cow's milk. I've had allergic problems with it since I was a baby, and it's not good for my GB. I've been hearing recently that soy isn't that great for us. I'm still trying to read up on it. But have y'all ever tried goat's milk? If so, is it easier to tolerate if you have? I would rarely use it, but sometimes I need it when I make my cornbread and have cereal. Thanks, Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 4, 2002 Report Share Posted February 4, 2002 I've never heard anything negative about Soy. Could you tell me what you've heard/read about this? I'm interested because I had to give it to my babies because milk-based products >> _____________ Hi, Janet, yes, here is a link: http://www.mercola.com/article/soy/ Dr. Mercola has tons of stuff about it, so if you run out of stuff to read, go to the top right and in the search type in " soy. " It should be checked out at more than one place. I drink soy also. But I have noticed that when I throw something outside to the cats that has soy in it, they don't have anything to do with it. Now, I know they're just cats, but my dog is the same way and she'll eat about anything. I've heard this all my life that if an animal won't eat something, that means it's unfit for human consumption. Don't know how true it is, though.

Could you tell me what you've heard/read about this? I'm interested because I had to give it to my babies because milk-based products constipated them after I quit breastfeeding. Also, I was planning to use more soy in my own diet because it supposedly helps with PMS symptoms and the change through menopause. Thanks Janet.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2002 Report Share Posted February 4, 2002 Hello Janet, Just do a google search or any engine that you prefer using subject " soy " you will be surprised! make up your own mind. It really won't take long, pbly just a couple minutes.One of the best substutes for mothers milk and it is used in hospitals, has coconut milk in it. which also has a similar fat content along with medium chain fatty acids found in mothers milk. you could check out www.coconut-info.com regards charles >From: Janet <taylorj@...> goat's milk >Date: Mon, 04 Feb 2002 11:20:41 -0700 >I've never heard anything negative about Soy.

Usually if there's just a little leftover at dinner, I pitch it cuz it's not enough to save. They won't eat it. But if something's three days old in the frig, i usually pitch it. And it's not necessarily the soy milk. Sometimes I make spaghetti with soy meat. Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 http://ighawaii.com/naturally/newsletter/barfcat.html Firstly, what NOT to feed! Your cat is NOT A GRAIN, A SOY OR A STARCH EATER. Eating these foods produces poor health. That means you should not feed your cat a diet based on or containing rice or pasta or bread or breakfast cereals which are all grain based products and therefore damaging to your cat's health. Avoid potato in all its forms and also soy based products such as soy milk. Do not feed your cat sugary foods. These are very damaging. Do not feed your cat any form of commercial cat food because they all contain substantial quantities of or are made almost entirely from grains, soys and starches of various kinds together with massive amounts of sugar. Instead, feed food which promotes positive health. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think perhaps you should just source as much information as you can on the subject and then weigh up the pro's & con's for yourself. After all, all of these things are really down to personal choice when all is said and done. Sorry I cannot be of more help, I am sure if you join other groups and read the archives you will find lots of info passing between the members - gettingwell is one that I can think of. nne > Let me also say that I'm still eating stuff with soy in it.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Hi, Yes, you can sub goat's milk for cow's milk but what a shame to cook it. Raw is best in my opinion, with all the live enzymes intact. Baugh ********************* I don't know about that... will know... but to drink it... it tastes pretty much the same... except no ill effects...
