Grandfather Raised on Raw Milk

My grandfather, currently 92.8 years old, was raised on raw milk. Until recently, he has been very well (he came down with Leukemia one year ago).

Prior to coming down with Leukemia, he had never been on a pill. He rarely took vitamins. He ate lots of fresh fruits and nuts. And for the first 20+ years of his life, he drank raw milk everyday.

He still has all of his teeth and very few cavities. He likes sugar too! He is known to be healthy and rarely gets sick. He does not get vaccines and has never caught the flu. Everyone marvels at his healthy body and strong mind.



Eryn's Reply: What a wonderful story about the benefits of raw milk. Drinking that raw milk with all of its glorious full fat, during his formative years, helped to lay a strong foundation that served him well throughout his life.

Nature is perfect in its wisdom in supplying full fat along with the milk. The fat is necessary in the milk to better digest and thus absorb the nutrition in the fresh milk. Nothing like the satiation and "calming factor" achieved through consuming full fat raw milk.

How wonderful to be able to drink a great source of health building enzymes in the raw milk, that are unfortunately largely destroyed during pasteurization.

I cannot wait for clarity to be brought on the essential nature of good fats in our diets. It is especially important that these fats are consumed in sufficient amounts in our growing childrens' diets. Make sure to view the very important Dr. Weston Price video that communicates how critical it is to consume non-processed whole food diets.

Unfortunately during this time period of "fat phobia," the major importance of "good" fats like those found in fresh raw milk, and of plentifully supplying those good fats in our diets, is being lost.

Once again, nature got it right by providing the good fats within raw milk. I hope this confusion over which fats are bad, which fats are good, and how essential good fats are to our health, and to especially our growing childrens' health, will eventually be communicated to the public.

One day, we will return to the traditional foods like raw milk, provided from a good source and in a safe manner, that help to create strong healthy bodies that are much more capable to fight off disease and illness.

What a lucky man your grandfather was to have access to a good supply of fresh raw milk in his growing years. I am sure the friendly bacteria in the raw milk, which are natural antibiotics, also helped your grandfather to stay healthier. A blessing indeed! And if you tell me your grandfather was able to eat raw butter from cows grazing on grass in the springtime, I will be duly impressed!

In Slovenia, when raw milk vending machines are provided in towns, it is a town celebration. The children perform their musicals to celebrate the raw milk being provided. It is a joyous occasion - as they know how lucky they are to be provided with this excellent food source.

I look forward to the day the United States provides a good, safe source of raw milk for those who enjoy dining on this nowadays rare delicacy. Nothing like raw milk from cows that are able to eat the way that nature intended - grazing on plenty of delicious nutritious grass and herbs. How wonderful to taste the nuances in the cows' milk from the various herbs and grass that they have consumed.

How perfect that the powerful nutrition in that grass passes through to the cows' milk supply. This is similar to a mother wanting to consume a healthy diet, so that her breast-fed child can benefit from the nutrition and immune system building powers in their non-processed, non-homogenized, and non-pasteurized breast milk.

I hope your special grandfather is able to overcome his Leukemia, so he can continue to be an inspiration to those around him.

I thank you so much for sharing about the benefits of raw milk on your grandfather's health. It is through raw milk stories such as yours, that will help bring "back to light" the merits of this wholesome food that has nourished man in its "unaltered" state for thousands of years.

P.S.

Thank you for sharing about your grandfather not vaccinating. I recently had the privilege to meet an active and healthy 109-year-old man that also said he does not vaccinate.

Dr. Eli Jones, a famous cancer cure doctor going back in time about 100 years ago, believed vaccinations did more harm than good.
