Guest guest Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Welcome Rhoda, If I were you, I would use kefir instead of yogurt. Here is a blurb on the differences. Kefir is a much more potent substance when made from kefir grains (not the powdered commercial starter--this is an imitation) and has more health giving qualities than yogurt. Bless you. I hope your cancer goes away. D. Both kefir and yogurt are cultured milk products, but they contain different types of beneficial bacteria. Yogurt contains transient beneficial bacteria that keep the digestive system clean and provide food for the friendly bacteria that reside there. But kefir can actually colonize the intestinal tract, a feat that yogurt cannot match. Kefir contains several major strains of friendly bacteria not commonly found in yogurt, Lactobacillus Caucasus, Leuconostoc, Acetobacter species, and Streptococcus species. It also contains beneficial yeasts, such as Saccharomyces kefir and Torula kefir, which dominate, control and eliminate destructive pathogenic yeasts in the body. They do so by penetrating the mucosal lining where unhealthy yeast and bacteria reside, forming a virtual SWAT team that housecleans and strengthens the intestines. Hence, the body becomes more efficient in resisting such pathogens as E. coli and intestinal parasites. Kefir's active yeast and bacteria provide more nutritive value than yogurt by helping digest the foods that you eat and by keeping the colon environment clean and healthy. Because the curd size of kefir is smaller than yogurt, it is also easier to digest, which makes it a particularly excellent, nutritious food for babies, invalids and the elderly, as well as a remedy for digestive disorders.

I have 3 goats, one of whom was a milker, 4 pot bellied pigs, 9 hens, and there are 5 cows that help me with my grass (they aren't mine). We used the goat's milk, 4 year's ago, for my grandson and I would try and make cheese with it. Not too successful. I started using raw milk about a year ago when I started an all raw diet of meat and dairy. At present I am on the Budwig cancer protocol that uses cottage cheese or yogurt. Unfortunately, to get a gallon of raw milk I would have to drive 120 miles round trip. I now have a source that is half the distance so I am able to make yogurt. I am having difficulty with the yogurt lately and would love some help. I do not cook it at all. I prepare it in the oven for 24 hours with the light on or in the dehydrator. I found out about this site from someone on the Flaxseedoil2 site which is about the Budwig diet. I look forward to joining, learning and sharing.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Rhoda, My mother's 90 year old neighbor is using the Budwig diet to treat his prostate cancer. He eats flaxseed in cottage cheese and alot of raspberries for the elagic acid. So far, so good! Kathy P.S. The last time I visited him, I brought him some kefir grains. > From: Rhoda Freed > Sent: Sunday, April 25, 2004 7:15 AM > > Hi, > My name is Rhoda. I live in Central Florida.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Hi Rhoda, I too am a member of the FlaxSeedOil2 forum. I started using the Budwig Protocol also. Finding raw milk and milk products brought me here. I hope you are successful in putting your cancer in remission. I am looking forward to learning all I can here too. I live in La Crosse, Wisconsin though originally from Chicago. Being in the heart of God's Country and the blessed dairy belt I should have no problem getting hooked up with a supplier. I'm still reading through posts and links and the information here is just wonderful. I am very grateful to find this group.
