Goat's milk?

[Guest guest]

<<Technically, goat's milk is a Tier 2 or neutral/avoid.>>

The value of Avoid came from Dr. D'Adamo's Typebase 3

http://www.dadamo.com/typebase/typebase.cgi with the explanation:

" Flocculates serum or precipitates serum proteins. "

These days I always use Typebase for food values since I know it is the most

current.

Dear ,

Thank you so much for the confirmation. In truth I must tell you all that I was

responding to hundreds of e-mails late at night and, in my fatigue, thought I

was answering someone in another e-group. I would not have given such a

generalized answer regarding the dairy question to someone in this group if I'd

had my wits about me! Please forgive my faux pas.

In response to the question, " Why do you need milk? " I'd like to make a possibly

insignificant comment. (It's a good question, by the way!) My grandmother came

over on a boat from Sweden and her family consisted of dairy farmers. We grew

up eating butter, cream and had two choices for drinks at meal time: milk and

milk! :-) My mother, a gourmet cook, prepared our meals with lots of cream

sauces (also using wheat) and special meals were rich with dairy products.

As an adult, after being a sickly child, I knew I had to make changes to my

diet. I stumbled onto the wheat and dairy sensitivites before I even learned

about ER4YT, and began to eliminate them from my diet. The difficulty came when

I had to prepare meals. All of my recipes and menus included the very products

that irritated me! I had to learn a whole new way of cooking and eating, but

I've never regretted it!

My elimination of wheat was a cold turkey decision due to celiac disease.

Dairy, however, was a process. I still regress to those childhood days of milk

and cookies, cream pies, and rich sauces on foods, though I've learned other

ways to satisfy my sweet tooth and desire for the delicacies I ate in my youth.

So, perhaps, there are those who are still in the process of changing their

eating habits and the desire for dairy products hasn't waned. They may also be

struggling with menus and recipes, and the changes that they necessitate.

That's just a thought . . .

I'm grateful for the recipes so many have posted on this site, for the knowledge

you all have, and for the encouragement to continue on this path. It can be

very difficult at times -- especially when your extended family thinks you are

nuts for taking this approach.

Thank you, , and others!

Technically, goat's milk is a Tier 2 or neutral/avoid. That means that

as long as you are in good health and not trying to lose weight, goat's

milk is a neutral. Raw goat's milk is even better. Don't get me wrong,

it still shouldn't be more than an occasional treat. But, let me put it

this way: as often as you need to use milk, it's O.K. to use raw

goat's. I say this in the context of someone who never eats cereal and

never really drank much milk. If you are needing milk for cooking, then

rice or almond works fine—you don't really taste it. I guess my real

question is: " Why DO you need milk? "

Cheers,

You might remember from earlier that I was a (black) tea with milk

drinker, a habit that I picked up in England at the age of 16, and I

had really hard times giving up.

NOW I AM FREE OF ANY DAIRY !!! (Quite recent achievement)

I thought I read something about replacing cow's milk w/ goat milk for kids who

are " addicted " to milk. Is goat milk easier to digest or does it have different

proteins than cow's? What would be the advantage to goat milk over, say rice

milk? Does it taste more like cow's milk?

, full of questions

[Guest guest]

goat milk is the closest milk to human milk in composition, so yes

it is easier to digest -- it actually tastes closer to human milk

too, although most people prefer the taste of cow milk over goat.

It is also a " cleaner " milk in comparison to cow's milk. The

advantages over rice milk would depend on so many things, such as

the goat's diet, pasturized vs. raw and what you did w/ the milk

(ie: turn it into yogurt w/ live cultures). Rice milk isn't really

a " beneficial " food like milk products can be, especially if you are

talking about a commercial brand.

Alternatives to butter are coconut oil, lard, bacon fat, tallow and you may try

gee in a bit...give it a month or two...you may be able to do the cocnut gee a

bit sooner.
