I am very thankful that the no milk discussion came up last April. Since we have gone milk free in our house, my 3rd child has now had solid, well formed, " normal " colored Bm's!! (before was chronic diarrhea. The baby is now trying to walk at 12 mo. his older brothers didn't walk until 15-19 months. I even heard the " G " sound from the baby yesterday when Grandma was over.. I finally got into a GI specialist for #3, and was explaining everything that we have done, etc. She looked at me and said " This is very clearly a milk intolerance " She wrote out a dr note right then for the school/preschool groups about milk. WOW.. #2 will see her in a few weeks for the same thing. .. Then the baby. YEAH!! I feel like we are finally making progress and finally have buy in from family about the eclectic diet we are on. Also.. I was filing papers today. I started to read #3's private Speech re-eval which was done end of July. He went from the 6th percentile for Receptive language to the 63rd and 13th to 37th in expressive language. This kid is not on supplements like big brother and only goes to private speech 2x week. I am so thrilled. We start EI at the school this week. Hopefully, we won't be there that long. SO long story. MILK IS EVIL..

I can't decide if it's the elimination of milk, the high doses of vitamin E, or the fish oil that is helping Gavin the most. I'm sure it's a combo of the three, but at the same time, the huge improvements since the elimination of milk have been amazing! I know I mentioned that I am allergic to eggs. When I have something that has eggs in it or has been cross-contaminated (using a cast iron skillet that had been used to prepare eggs) my ears start itching way deep inside. Then my throat starts to close, etc. I was having a Vetne Frap. every couple of days and after I would drink it, my ears would itch, but nothing else happened. I didn't think too much about it since it never got any worse. When I eliminated milk and tried to reintroduce into my diet, I got so sick. My stomach was messed up for days. We are definitely caesen free in this house. I would have NEVER even heard about it if it weren't for this group! Mandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Deb, Just wanted to let you know you aren't the lone person here who is/was around cows. I grew up on a dairy farm, with also 3000+ pigs and 1000+ acres at one time. What I'd really like everyone here to know, and understand, when they are searching into this very deep, informative and learning discussion on iodine, and optimal health, is that.......Cows, pigs, and other for profit animals don't have health insurance! They hopefully have excellent nutrition. Other dairy farmers didn't have excellent nutrition, and the vet comes by almost daily, and the dairy farmer goes out of business. Think of that when it pertains to your health, and your pursuit of optimal health. Our farm nutritionist always said that a dairy cow that produces a lot over her life span, and therefore undergoes great stress, has 130+ taste buds, and we only have 30 something taste buds. Therefore when she is chewing on a tree, or dirt, she tastes and needs something. When she is chewing up the mineral box right where the iodine is, you need to check to see if it's out of iodine, and fill it up. She'll decide how much of whatever vitamins/minerals that she needs, and get her protein from hay. Their bodies are similar to ours. Ever chewed into a whole food vitamin? Luckily we are that different than the cow, and swallow it, but iodine, and the rest are needed by you. Hopefully someday we will only need minimal health insurance, that is unless cows start driving cars.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Bethann, Don’t lump all animal production together and label it all bad. There are many people who have gone back to the old ways of raising animals. I buy all my meat from local private families, who do not use hormones or antibiotics, are grass fed or organic grain fed. You can get milk products that way too. Your dad was one of them. You just have to find the sources. Donna in IL LOL @ There are some strange names for animal groupings, herds(?) aren't there?.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Actually, if people research grass fed beef, and used it, a lot of health issues would resolve. Cattle/cows etc are not made to eat anything but grass. Other feed makes them ill and isn't natural.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I didn't lump all animal production together and label it bad. In a previous post I specifically said commercial production. I am fully aware there are organic producers. I know several people who sell raw milk in the community, and free range chickens, ducks and turkeys, and their eggs, even a few emu, and some ostrich. I was reared on a farm in the community. And several miles from where I live there is a man raising Bison on his farm. And there are several raising goats. So yes, not all outfits are into poor farming practices. But the majority of them are, and those are the ones that provide most people in the US with food staples.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 For mainstream that's true. Meat is safe and good, the government looks after that and has our best interests at heart. Doctors know everything about sickness and are smarter than anyone and can be relied on. Grocery stores carry the best " inspected and safe " meat. The FDA and Health Canada protects us. sad really.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 If one wants to consider what is proper and correct with naming groups, AND one is living/referring to dairy cattle (as a VERY generic grouping) then cattle might be appropriate. That is not to say that these days "cows" is not accurate and correct for the plural, especially with dairy animals, as many, if not most dairy farmers use artificial insemination, thus there are no males in the dairy herd .. just "cows"!

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010  More from the link, sorry; The A2 story started in 1993 when Professor Bob Elliott from Auckland asked whether there was a difference between the milk the Masai people of Kenya drink and the milk drunk in Western countries. Professor Elliott already knew casein was diabetogenic in rodents. He also knew Samoan children in New Zealand had 10 times the incidence of type 1 diabetes than Samoan children in Samoa. And he also knew the Masai people of Kenya, who drink very large amounts of milk, do not get type 1 diabetes. So, he rang the Dairy Research Institute, asked to speak to a milk biochemist, and then asked whether there were any differences between the Kenyan milk and our own. The answer was that there is a difference in the beta-casein. The non-disputed facts are a mutation, occurring some thousands of years ago and affecting the forebears of modern European cattle, has meant many European cattle produce a variant of beta-casein that has the amino acid histidine in position 67 instead of proline. As a consequence, the peptide beta-casomorphin7 (BCM7, which I also call the “milk devilâ€) is released on digestion.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Glue is made when the fat and water are removed from milk. That is why there is a pic of a cow on Elmer's Glue.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 interesting point Joyce, From: Joyce Simmerman, J.D. <nativelegal@...>Subject: Re: Milk Discussion"Iodine Forum" <iodine >Date: Wednesday, 13 January, 2010, 18:17 If one wants to consider what is proper and correct with naming groups, AND one is living/referring to dairy cattle (as a VERY generic grouping) then cattle might be appropriate. That is not to say that these days "cows" is not accurate and correct for the plural, especially with dairy animals, as many, if not most dairy farmers use artificial insemination, thus there are no males in the dairy herd .. just "cows"! Many children these days do not have a clue as to what it might be to contend with the temperament of a dairy bull!! Joyce Simmerman There is ALWAYS a "BETTER WAY"!

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Alice, One of the difficulties with langauage is the use of the collective noun. Collecvtive nouns are generalisations. All farmers aren't treating their animals and the land badly. But many are. So its true and not true. david > >> >> > From: crouth2 <crouth1email (DOT) com>> > Subject: Re: Milk Discussion> > iodinegroups (DOT) com> > Date: Wednesday, 13 January, 2010, 2:56> >> >> > Deb,> > Just wanted to let you know you aren't the lone person here who> > is/was around cows.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I live in s small town and I have no transportation, yeah it sucks. I lost everything I owned in Hurricane Katrina in 2005.I have no idea where I would find raw milk but I would love to try it. I was born in Wisconsin and I love milk and cheese. Heck I love everything dairy but what they do it and then end result of the product sucks and is scary because I don't trust in their process. from IllinoisFrom: Peggy <sandltc@...>iodine Sent: Wed, January 13, 2010 1:20:52 PMSubject: Re: Re: Milk Discussion you may want to check out raw milk instead.
