Goat's milk

[Guest guest]

Goats milk is tasty & nutritious,

but what I loved was milking,

as I milked and she ate, I laid my head on her side

and that was the most relaxing moment of my day.

She just oozed contentment.

But I am too old now to hassel in the barnyard :-)

" Goat's milk has more buffering capacity than OTC antacids. "

" Goat's milk alkalinizes the digestive system. It actually contains

an alkaline ash, and it does not produce acid in the inestinal system.

Goat's milk helps to increase the pH of the blood stream because it

is the dairy product highest in the amino acid L-glutamine.

L-glutamine is an alkalinizing amino acid... "

He cites Bernard Jensen for the former and Nutrition Reports

International for the latter.

Are people who describe the alkalinizing effects of foods--by

definition--anti-meat? It hasn't been my experience in the Ayurvedic

lit. but I've never read the Alkalinize or Die! stuff. My experience

is that meat is described as valuable and nourishing--though heavy and

acid-producing--and therefore one should eat plenty of vegetables

and/or other pH-increasing foods to balance the system. I don't have

issue with that. Sally, herself, says beet-kvass is valuable, in

part, because it is alkalinizing to the system--is she just pandering?
