I had initially read that homogenization was bad from a pamphlet and took it

at face value and in fact repeated it to others. However, I'd never seen any

convincing evidence that it did harm, and most arguments I'd heard against it

just didn't make sense.

For example, people claimed homogenized fat led to heart disease. If so,

what's with that British study that found the more milkfat people consumed the

lower their risk of heart disease? That found an inverse relationship between

(mostly) homogenized fat and heart disease.

I think homogenization does enough aesthetic harm that I'm against

homogenization anyway.

This reminds me to ask everyone about the article from Enig in

the next-to-last(?) WAPF journal. She wrote about her analysis of

the effects of homogenization and, to my surprise, she found that

there's not much to make a fuss about. ( I don't have that issue at

hand, and her article is not yet on the WAPF site, so I'm going from

memory here...). It's entirely possible that I misread her meaning.

I trust Enig to know fats, so I was a bit troubled to have to

readjust my world view on the relative evils of homogenized milk.

Any one else see this article and do a double-take?

I know " raw is best " , but it's not an easy option for some of us.

Now I'm wondering if the premium I pay for cream-top milk, if / when

I can find it, is worth it? Sometimes I have to choose between

organic or (rBST-free) cream-top milk at the store, and I'm uncertain

now which is better.

Well since goat's milk is naturally homogenized, and so many

people insist that goat's milk is better, I've always had to

wonder. I suspect it may have never been anything more than

the typical knee-jerk reaction against any process perceived

as unnatural.

,

From what I read, homogenization allows the fat to bind with milk protein

which allows it to pass directly into the bloodstream where it can collect

in places it would not normally. I usually read Wise Traditions cover to

cover and don't remember reading that so I would be curious where you saw

it too, my issue it out on loan.

:

The issue I have about this passing

into the bloodstream, which is the

same issue I have with Eat Right for Your

Blood Type, is that big proteins are NOT

supposed to be able to pass through your

intestinal walls. Amino acids do. The fact

that people are routinely leaking stuff they

should not strikes me as a major issue!
