Re: Milk Fat

[Guest guest]

So, this may sound stupid but what about heavy cream, isn't that milk

fat? I love a tiny bit in my 1 cup of coffee a day. And also cream

cheese? I've given it up but sure would love to make cheesecake, too.

Thank you from a cream lover.

Even if you're only five feet tall (of which I have NO idea), at about 95 pounds you bordering on being underweight--so, if you feel good, I wouldn't worry about it.

I have always been thin/slender. I've found since I've been drinking raw whole milk (drank almond milk before) that I've gained about 8 pounds, which is about 8 1/2% of my normal body weight. I love how the milk tastes & how I feel, but I don't love the new shape/texture of my body. Would I benefit from drinking raw skim milk? How about whole milk kefir? Does it contribute to body fat as much as unfermented milk?TIA.

Anyone willing to give up some kefir

> grains for some fresh goat's milk..I live in Ramona,CA..LJPS

I'll be happy to send you some grains from raw cow's milk kefir if you still

need them.

To those of you who've mailed grains before, do you have to pack/ship in any

special way?

This is so good to know. I'm so glad I posted my question!

I love the whole, raw milk. I eat very little junk food, and the only sugar I

get is in the form of wine (clue?). I'm 38 years old, 5'4 " -ish, and typically

weigh about 105. Lately I fluctuate between 110-113. I don't exercise enough,

but I do eat well. Lots of raw veggies, some fruits, mostly grass-fed meats,

organic beans and grains, whole grain breads (but not a lot), whole raw milk,

kefir, kombucha, cultured veggies, a little cheese (mostly raw), very little

processed foods. I teach yoga, but don't get to practice much. My muscles are

strong, and the extra bulk is accumulating mainly in my upper thighs, which I

know is typical as women age, but I don't like it!!! ;-P

Sounds like maybe I need to drink more whole milk instead of less.

Thanks, y'all!

at 5'4 " and 105 pounds you are underweight according to this

http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/

It sounds to me like the wt gain was a good thing for you. I too gained some wt

when I starting drinking raw milk but I was underweight to begin with so the wt.

gain was good and others said I looked healthier. it took me some time to accept

myself at a higher wt. but eventually I realized that I really did need to gain

some wt.
