Hi Mavis,

Although it depends upon the age of the baby what recipe works best

for general breastmilk replacement, in any case you would want to use

UNHOMOGENIZED not the pretty all same texture milk. If cream top milk

is not available, I would purchase the skim and add cream back in.

 

A woman MD who studied Ayurveda offers a recipe for formula substitute

which is very interesting and I have seen an adopted baby thrive on,

clients using homongenized babies tend to have problems with, and

using the unhomogenized those I have had to support with have done

very well also (that is very few in my career, breastfeeding is easy

when mom is well cared for and supported ayurvedically).

 

this recips takes equal parts the full cream milk and distilled water,

brings to a boil with a little fresh ginger slice/s, turmeric powder,

fennel seeds, and cardamom. Each spice has it's digestive as well as

various other properties, and the turmeric has antihistamine

properties. The recipe has added to it at the end, succanat, for

mineral similarity to breast milk, it is said. The milk proteins and

fats of cows milk are much more than in breast milk, hence the

dilution ratio with water for newborns. The succanat and water both

are reduced as the baby gets older.

 

Please forgive, I am not able to access my MS word documents on this

computer for the exact recipe.

 

For the recipe Dr. Bhate has offered, if weight gain is desired, I

would be using full cream milk, unhomgenized organic (especially

important if possible because fats more than other food components

concentrate petrochemical pollutants including pesticides, hormones

and medical drugs. Because the recipe requires boiling, to use raw we

have to sacrifice as Dr. Bhate explained, the few enzymes and heat

destroyed vitamins in the raw milk for the digestibility of the long

boiling, which breaks the proteins into much smaller molecules even

while concentrating this food.

 

I choose to not recommend the milk sold for lactose intolerant people

and that with added probiotic/culture both because of the poor

lifestyle of the cows/energetics and what that may mean in these

products (and the various reasons above and see www.sacredwindow.com

article on milk) and also because taking milk and yoghurt is one of

the ayurvedic food combining no-nos, and the culture begins to make

yoghurt in the milk, or stomach, is my assumption.

 

How old is this boy, and what is the result and his health? So many

people also give milk cold temp, there are many reasons for milk

problems often misnamed allergies. He will probably respond well to

warm temp milk as the recipe indicates, emotinally as well as health

wise, unless at one of those ages where the kids tend to reject

anything the least bit new. This is a whole nother discussion!

 

Thanks for your questions, glad to have you with us, Mavis.

Warm Regards;

Ysha

well the little boy is 2, has been drinking milk since

about 1. his mother started to give him organic

lactose free milk as she believes he is lactose

intolerant. he only likes it warm. he has a very

sensitive stomach and easily gets skin rashes. first

she thought he had a citrus allergy as he was drinking

a lot of orange juice, which she doesnt give him

anymore.

thanks,

mavis

Hi Mavis;

It seems to me that high acidity levels in the body sometimes make for

both sensitivity to citrus, as well as desire for it's cleansing

benefits (usually converted to alkalyzing as well as other benefits).

And High acidity levels (from incorrect diet, liver accumulations

probably from maternal as well, water intake, etc) often go along with

allergic symptoms, resulting from the accumulations of waste products

ayurveda calls ama in the system. Also goes along with sensitive

stomach and rashes as pitta ama. Ayurveda often can give valuable

understanding to collected symptoms which otherwise get tagged as

mystery or just different things happening. Great organizing principles.
