I wanted to

ask if you find that your goat yogurt gets as thick as yogurt made with half n

half ? I

finally got a good batch of yogurt using half and half and a good yogurt from

whole foods,

forget the brand but it didn't have anything illegal. I should write down some

of what I

do. LOL

Hi Brebda in Kansas,

Guess what? I use 2% goat's milk not full fat and I get acceptable thickish

yogurt.

Levin throrized that I may be tolerating the 2% better because with less fat

globules there

are fewer antigens. It makes sense. I started the diet with cow yogurt but

tolerated it

intermittently. Since switching from whole goat's milk to the 2% I tolerate it

all the time.

This might not be advisible for someone who is underweight but Elaine states in

the book

that skim and partly skimmed milk can be used as well as various thickness of

cream with

no additives.
