Were You Raised On Raw Milk?

Did you know that mankind was nourished from raw milk for thousands of years? This is valuable traditional foods information that should not be lost. Plus, below you will enjoy reading about one woman who loved being raised on raw milk.

To share just how fantastic raw milk is, and to raise raw milk awareness, please share your raw milk story or testimonial. Here is a raw milk testimonial espousing the many benefits of raw milk.

Fresh raw milk from healthy and primarily grass fed cows is a very nourishing beverage. It is quite tasty too! Would you like to review your best tasting non-pasteurized milk that you have been fortunate enough to consume?

Thelen's daughter is the piano teacher for my children. While talking about raw milk with our piano teacher, Thelen was brought up. You see, our piano teacher mentioned how her mother was raised on true milk back in Missouri. I said I would love to talk with Thelen about her days drinking this wonderful white health promoting beverage.

Thelen was born in 1906 in Buffalo, Missouri. She was one of 14 children. She was raised on tasty milk from cows that loved to graze on fresh grass. Yes, Thelen drank non-treated milk consistently for the first 20 years of her life.

Though no food can surpass the nutritional value of unadulterated milk from grass fed cows, some tainted milk can cause disease.

Thelen loved drinking the fresh milk from her family cows. In fact, at the age of 14-years-old, Thelen was the primary milker of her family's cows. She would have to milk several cows before she went to school in the morning.

She was definitely anxious to leave the family farm and move to Chicago, but no doubt grateful for having access to a highly nourishing food source each day.

Don't tell anyone, but Thelen never washed the teats of the cows before milking them.

Thelen was a very healthy child and grew into a healthy young woman. She was rarely sick and had a hearty constitution that served her well throughout her life. She says, "I was the last one to get sick, and the first one to get better."

She does not miss the milking of the cows, but she does miss the raw milk that provided a nutritious foundation for her - one that no doubt greatly contributed to her long and healthy life.

Thelen would pour the fresh squeezed milk in tall silver cans after she milked the cows.


Since there was no electricity on Thelen's farm, they kept the milk cold by placing a milk can with a lid on top, inside a tub that was filled with cold well water. Each morning the milk truck would come by and buy the fresh milk from Thelen's farm and bring it to market.

The truth is that most people alive today in Europe, North America, South America, and substantial areas of Asia and Africa are the descendants of peoples that relied on fresh non-treated milk, its fermented foods, and the meat from grass-fed animals for their dietary needs.

Well, many people still live on raw milk around the world, such as in East Africa.

The East African Maasai tribe known for their tremendous endurance, strength and beautiful physiques consume plenty of raw milk along with its fermented products.

Fresh milk is a staple food for these still primitive Maasai. The milk contains more total fat and cholesterol than standard milk in the United States. However, the Maasai have low blood cholesterol and are free of cardiovascular and other chronic disease as Ron Schmid, ND, author of The Untold Story of Milk: Green Pastures, Contented Cows and Raw Dairy Products points out.

At my Amazon book store you will find some excellent nutrition books, including Dr. Weston Price's widely acclaimed Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.

Shouldn't we all have access to this basic food, raw milk, that has nourished man and helped to create good health and beautiful physiques for centuries?

Real milk is also a staple food for the Kalenjins, another East African tribe.

The Kalenjins are known to be world class runners that have won about 40% of all the highest international honors available in men's distance running.

People drink non-pasteurized milk from other grass eating animals such as this buffalo. This woman from India is lucky to have this nourishing milk available.

Indeed, true milk is a fantastic food source. Untreated milk was consumed by indigenous people all over the globe as Dr. Weston Price observed. To view peoples that consumed excellent whole unadulterated foods and to observe their beautiful physiques and healthy teeth, please watch the phenomenal nutrition video on my homepage.
