Guest guest Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Hi Stuck: How did the Dr. know you had low Vitamin D levels? Did you bring this to his/her attention or did the Doc. mention Vit. D to you? So you can not go into the Sum much due to getting Sun-Burned. So you have low levels of Vitamin D due to " lack of sunlight " ...hmmm. Maybe you could do some Carlson's Cod Liver Oil high in Vit. D and A. I have read that *Coconut Oil* is good for *Low Thyroid Levels.* I'll get more info on Coconut Oil but I recommend The Fish Oil.

I am now on 2k a day and cows milk goes bad in our house from the lack of use. I am almost ready to just not buy it.( might replace it with coconut milk, but only for cooking) weird huh. but I am a very very very very very light skinned person. ( I have a nick name of " snow white " not for the beauty part or black hair but light skin) But anyway I can't handle the outdoors and so my Vitamin D level is ridiculously low and the milk in the winter does help me. just my 5 cents. > > Stuck > - > tmrwmr > herbal remedies > Saturday, June 17, 2006 12:07 PM > [lists] Re: Herbal Remedies - Cow's Milk Necessary?

In addition to raw cow's milk, we take Carlson Cod Liver Oil capsuls during the winter months which contain vitamin A and D. During the summer, we switch to Zone Perfect Cod Liver Oil which does not contain vitamin D. > > Tom > > > - > Raine > herbal remedies > Saturday, June 17, 2006 3:11 AM > Re: Herbal Remedies - Cow's Milk Necessary?

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Hi Raine(pretty name): Actually; the boy I mentioned(Christian) did go on to drink *Raw's Cow's Milk* once we moved to where it was avialable. The Boy's Dad (Happy Father's Day to all you Dad's out there); was Adamant about drinking only *Pure Raw 100% Organic Cow's Milk*. *Raw-Milk Cheese* was also incorporated into the diet for all of us. Looking back and also looking forward at the same time: I would like to know more about how Vegetarians can get more Vitamins A and D; *Nut Milks such as Almond Milk? *Soy bean Milk Organic? *Soy Bean Curd known as Tofu? We did used to eat a lot of *Almond Butter* so that helped the boy.
