Milk from a protected cow does a soul good

That does reflect part of the cost of producing organically on a small scale.

And

that is still from cow's that will be slaughtered, most likely.

someone has written about that a good bit. for get if it was here (Hare Krsna

dasi?) or maybe on Holistic Health. HH would be a good place to ask that

question.

 

I have done some extensive research on butterfat, but am too lazy to write a

paper as yet. Much of the down side of dairy products has to do with the way

they

are consumned. Ghee in moderation (less than 2 tablespoons per day, aggregate

from all sources - one cup of whole milk has 2/3 of a tablespoon) and low fat

yoghurt, the traditional Indian village method of consumption, is actually

healthful. Over consumption, deep frying with the same ghee for more than 30

minutes, consuming milk cold, all these things can be problems. And

reactions

for eating too much just because it is artificially low priced. At true

prices,

consumption will naturally be more limited.

 

If you want some background on fats following are a couple of links. The

saturated fat thing is what they use against butterfat, but the saturated fats

in

butterfat are mostly short chain as opposed to the long chain fats in meat.

After

you read these two articles, I can send you some more papers.

 

Best overview article I have found on fats.

 

The Margarine Hoax -- trans fat and your health

 

This article is dated - much of what he is complaining about has already been

acknowledged, but some backwards folks still are only concerned about total

cholesterol count. Especially the purveyors of hydrogenated poly unsaturateds

(trans fats) becasue they products do lower cholesterol but in a bad way -

increases lipoprotein (a). But I get ahead of myself.

I have been toning down my rhetoric about devotees eating blood milk lately,

but

the old Madhave Gosh would have jumped in here at heavily hacked on the topic

given that opening. He would have said things like

 

The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. The stomach nourishes the

whole

body. Bloood milk contaiminates not only the consciousness of the individual,

but the societal body as well.

 

But I have mellowed out, so won't mention that line of reasoning today.

So Srila Prabhupada was right :-)
