Hi there,

 

Soy was chosen years ago as meat substitute/extender for use in commercial

hamburgers and other

meat-related products, because it's protein more closely resembles that in meat

than any other

commercially viable vegetable food. Specifically, soy protein is very high in

sulfur. In any

processed form, soy is very acid-forming in the body and therefore

health-diminishing.

 

Regarding raw dairy, yes, I am familiar with Organic Pastures, yes, their

products are

absolutely outstanding, yes, it's (all dairy is) loaded with fat and with

casein, a protein so

dense it is used as wallpaper paste. Not made INTO wallpaper paste ... used AS

wallpaper paste.

The protein content of cow's milk is at least 300% that of human mother's milk,

and the protein

is much denser. This protein is well designed to fuel growth from a 60-lb. calf

to a 400-lb. cow

in a year, give or take.

 

Then there is the issue of weaning. We are the ONLY species on Earth of which I

am aware that

continues to consume milk and related products post-weaning. What most do not

realize is that

mother's milk in EVERY mammal species contains certain very mildly addictive

chemical compounds.

These are place there by Nature to encourage the baby to nurse to full term

before weaning. The

concentration of these substances in cow's milk is considerably higher than in

human mother's

milk. Ergo, many people find dairy one of THE most difficult food " groups " from

which to

graduate.

 

Perhaps time to graduate? Just a thought :)

 

Best to all,

Elchanan
