So much more information than just milk in this book!!
There are many other excellent reviews for this book, so I will not repeat the same information again. What I will say is that if you care about your health and the health of your family and want to know the truth about pasteurized milk and how the dairy industry completely controls government agencies and thus the regulations on Raw Milk and makes it difficult to near impossible for the public to buy and drink raw milk you need to read this book. Every year I see more and more news stories where government agencies actually raid the farms and stores that sell raw milk in full SWAT gear with automatic weapons and dump all the raw milk at the farm and stores and throw the people in jail. Most of the farms and stores that sell Raw Milk are very much small businesses. The loss of product and legal fees many times bankrupt these poor people who are only trying to supply a healthy version of milk to the people that search for it. I have been drinking Raw Milk for many years and have NEVER gotten sick from it, and I also have been a lot healthier since I have been drinking Raw Milk. My diet is at least 75%-80% Raw, both milk and veggies.There is an excellent website that helps people find Raw Milk in their states: [...] . There you will find a wealth of information on milk. Realmilk.com is from the Weston A Price Foundation which is another excellent website and source of information as is the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation.Enjoy the book AND DRINK PLENTY OF RAW MILK!!! Once you taste Raw Milk you will know what you have been missing all these years, but be forewarned- once you taste Raw Milk you will never be able to go back to pastuerized milk and drink it again, your taste buds and your body simply will not allow it!!

Wonderful book
A great book full of hard-to-find information on milk. Well-written and compelling. it tells a sad but all too common story of large corporations ruining a once marvelous product in the name of industrialization and profit-maximization. Small family farmers got screwed in the process.Raw milk is it! I had raw cream for the first time a couple years ago. Had to buy it illegally since its illegal here in Virginia (its also illegal to ship across state lines-thanks Ronald Reagan!). its quite amazing and provides a warm tingle in the belly. People I know that react to dairy in bad ways tolerated the raw stuff. So I tend to agree with Schmid that pasteurization may be the real culprit when it comes to dairy allergies. Raw milk contains enzymes and beneficial bacteria that aid in its own digestion. Raw cream sours naturally into something akin to sour cream; it doesnt putrefy like the pasteurized stuff. Raw milk contains as much vitamin C as orange juice. Unfortunately, its mostly destroyed by pasteurization. I imagine its probably completely gone after ultra-pasteurization.You can get sick from any food thats contaminated, including pasteurized milk. if raw milk is produced in sanitary conditions it is quite safe and resistant to infection (unlike pasteurized milk). People have died from eating lettuce contaminated with bacteria, but I dont see anyone demanding pasteurization of all lettuce (thank God). Why is milk singled out for compulsory destruction? People deserve to make their own health choices and health freedom. Small farmers ought to be able to sell unprocessed, unpasteurized foods to consumers. Compulsory pasteurization laws ought to be repealed.Full-fat dairy products dont cause heart disease, contrary to the review above. Neither saturated fat nor cholesterol have been shown to cause heart disease and many cultures around the world eat large quantities with no ill effects. Sat fats are actually quite good for you. See "The Cholesterol Myths" and books by Bruce Fife. There is a compelling case that pasteurized milk causes heart disease. it goes like this: Homocysteine causes heart disease, and homocysteine is reduced by vitamins B6 and folic acid. Guess what happends to vitamins B6 and folic acid during pasteurization? Thats right-they are destroyed.

The Untold Story of Milk Review
I ordered this book and it came to me very fast. It was a great bargain for the money and I read it in 4 days.Very, very, informative; good detective work and entertaining to boot. There are really Food Police out there taking away our American rights!! More people need to get informed and do something about this situation, or we are all going to get sick and either die or stay sick for a long time suffering if more people do not step up to the plate to do something. The first step is to find out. Get informed! Why are Americans all overweight and dying of heart disease and cancer and other diseases that are non-existent in other countries. Because in America it is all about the money!! The Lobbyists, the Corporation heads, the public companies; and they have all lied to us and deceived us. This milk story is a great example!!I advise anybody to read this book and find out what they have done to MILK to poison it. It is a true story and full of facts.

Facts a Plenty for those on the fence about raw dairy!
Just the facts mamm' -- that's what is in this book.. a journey thru time from the 1800's to the present.. explaining why things are the way they are in this country, etc. in regards to raw milk and documents where things went wrong..A great book to get if you are undecided about raw dairy. I got the book to arm myself with facts about raw dairy when we decided to go raw after finding a place to buy it on realmilk.comI needed facts to convince my hubby that it was a safe thing to do.. The raw milk has helped my son recover from autism, something i was told was impossible by many doctors.. just butter and cod liver oil.. (and lots of love, therapy, $$$, etc, etc, etc.. -- hopefully you don't understand what i am talking about in regards to the autism!! :) )anyway.. get the book -- it is a good start to improving your health and understanding why you feel better while drinking raw dairy!
