It’s always the same thing. Whether it’s milk or natural resources there will always be particular groups with friends in high places for which the most important goal is to increase their profit. It’s sad that this phenomenon has now become the common feature of organic markets as well. I am a great fan of local farmers and their products which I think can under no circumstances be replaced by genetically modified products. What I like in particular is bio meat. It has recently been on the rise but it still needs a lot of promotion. I was lucky to find some great places such as The Healthy Butcher, Fresh From the Farm, Cumbrae’s in Toronto where you can get healthy and high-quality meat which not only eases your conscience as far as the treatment of animals is concerned but it also has a much more positive impact on your health and lifestyle. But when I read about the actions that the government together with other authorities are about to take I get the impression that the future of local farmers and organic food is under serious threat and we should all do something about it.

Ummm…. wasnt pasteurised milk developed to help stop the dying kids and diseases passed through??

No no Marko, pasteurization is a NWO conspiracy to enslave us all and kill our children. Good God man, have you learned nothing from reading Uncensored?

(Sad that I have to put in the emoticon so that the likes of jas don’t start screaming that I have finally seen the light.)

In a petri dish GRASS fed raw milk will kill most all bacteria introduced into the petri dish

The Death of Dietitians…The Resurrection of a French Chef!

“First need in the reform of hospital management? That’s easy! The death of all dietitians, and the resurrection of a French chef.” ~ Martin H Fischer quotes

Modern science is beginning to vindicate the ancient wisdom of our palates … Butter, for instance, and without which — some argue — French cuisine would not be possible, actually contains a saturated fat (the dietetic equivalent of a four letter word!), with a trans- fatty acid configuration, that — get this! — lowers blood cholesterol levels, triglycerides and exhibits heart-protective properties.

Known as vaccenic acid, this naturally occuring trans-fatty acid is found in the fat of ruminants, e.g. goats, cows, deer, and is also found in human milk. It is converted into rumenic acid, a type of conjugated linoleic acid, which is known to have a broad range of potential health benefits.

Butter, after all, contains fat … rich, warm, satisfying and yummy fat. Fat, having been exorcised from the American diet for so long in favor of simple and complex carbohydrates, has been an essential nutrient (and a key constituent of all the tissues in our body) that many of us have been told we must go without, lest we die of clogged arteries. Instead, we are dying of clogged arteries from the carbohydrate heavy, oxidized unsaturated fatty acid-rich diet that was supposed to be much healthier for us. An ounce of fat is equal to a pound of carbohydrate, when it comes to staving off primal cravings for authentic nourishment.

Butter, of course, must be consumed organically. All milk accumulates toxins within the environment. The fat happens to be the place where fat-soluble poisons are found in higher concentrations, e.g. pesticides, mineral oil, etc. as well as hormone residues. Also, it must be consumed moderately and in proper balance with other foods. Butter’s apotheosis, if you will, occurs when used with herbs or vegetables that contain a wealth of fat-soluble phytocompounds and nutrients. Turmeric, for instance, when cooked in clarified butter (ghee), is capable of concentrating out fat-soluble compounds, like tumerones, which the herb consumed raw will not liberate. Stir-frying dark greens, for instance, liberates fat-soluble vitamins normally locked rigidly within the plant.

If you’re still not convinced that saturated fats can be our friends, check out the jaw-dropping, but not heart-stopping hard-science on the therapeutic value of coconut oil in at least two dozen health conditions here.
