Guest guest Posted January 1, 1970 Report Share Posted January 1, 1970 That's my understanding, too. I recall that Dr. Price talked about the butter coming from cattle grazing on rapidly growing shoots as having the X factor. This happens in the spring and again in the late summer (which is why Wetzel makes x-factor butter oil twice a year). He also found that deaths in this country were lowest at the times that cattle were grazing on these rapidly growing greens (and so people were consuming dairy products with additional levels of nutrients). Butter oil concentrates the nutrients, but you'll get those nutrients in butter at those times of year, just not as concentrated. AFAIK, the method for making butter oil was invented by Dr. Price -- the butter eating groups he studied didn't make or eat butter oil, just lots of lovely x-factor butter. FWIW, B.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Any raw butter made from the cream of cows that eat " rapidly growing " green grass would contain the x factor, I think. Maybe others will pipe in. In " Wise Traditions " there are always advertisements in the back for raw dairy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
