Is this stuff safe for us that are gluten and casein free. My hubby was talking to someone the other day that is lactose intolerant and she says she gets the milk from the amish people cause it isnt pausterized. So i was wondering would this stuff be safe for us, or am I just dreaming lol

In some cases, people who can't tolerate pasteurized milk can tolerate raw milk. Gluten would not be an issue, but you'd have to decide if it's worth trying, in terms of the severity of your casein and/or lactose intolerace.

Thank you for your fast response. So in other words it is something that i should try on a day that i dont have to go anywhere just in case i would react. I am not really missing milk but was just curious if this could be an option for me or my step-son.

Does this milk taste funny due to not being pasteruized.

LOL yeah, and I wouldn't drink an entire glass of it or anything like that if you've been dairy-free for a while. It might be a good idea to start with small amounts of raw cheese.

If you're used to highly processed/pasteurized dairy, it might taste different to you, but I actually know a few people who really like it. I tried raw goat cheese a while back and I did react (but not severely and not right away). Some people have luck with it though.

Raw milk, cheeses and butter are the way to go if you are lactose intolerant. The pasterization process destroys the naturally occuring enzymes in milk that make it easy to digest. Many people who are lactose intolerant can tolerate raw dairy (such as myself). It is also much better for you. Paterization and homogenization destroy any benefits of milk and set our bodies up for allergic and autoimmune reactions. However if you have issues with casein, raw milk will still cause problems. Read up on benefits of raw dairy on line or on Dr.Mercola.com. Make sure the raw dairy you purchase is from grassfed animals not caged animals. The taste in my opinion is better. The butter is rich and cheese like. Yum.

I have read, and believe, that raw milk is much better tolerated, easier for the human body to digest. Pasteurization is important when it comes to mass distribution and sale of milk, it considerably reduces the risks of illness from consuming tainted milk. Unfortunately, pasteurization kills naturally occuring healthy bacteria in the milk as well. This bacteria is what makes milk go sour, but it is still edible (like sour cream.) Once milk has been pasteurized, it no longer will go sour, but goes bad instead.

If you can find a reputable farmer to get fresh, clean raw milk from, then I think it would be worth giving it a try.

Can you let us know if your son tries it and how it works out? I don't know much. I just know that it still has casein, and that there's been a trend for alternative doctors that were formerly pro-gluten & casein free, to start recommending this type of milk. My best friend tried it and she got ill, but she has a friend who seems to being doing OK drinking it. Let us know...

Please make sure the milk is very fresh. It is true that pasteurization kills good bacteria, but it also kills bad bacteria as well. Milk is a very desirable home for bacteria. They can flourish in it. Just make sure you know the source and the age of the milk.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
