My cousin, who passed away a week ago at 92, was a life long dairy farmer. Real butter, whole unpasteurized milk straight from cow, farm raised grass fed beef and pork, fresh eggs. Never sick, had the energy of 2 men, worked every single day, day light to dark (except on Sunday, just did the milking) loved God, loved his life, loved being a farmer. Ate and consumed everything MD medicine said not to, only consumed beer and wine in very small amounts and very infrequently, didn't use tobacco. He was lean, slender and strong his entire life. He was a textbook example of what living a lifestyle based on these very principles will produce. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for yet another in a long list of confirmations as to what this type of lifestyle can produce.

The pasturized milk is a problem for me. I remove the hard cream, and leave the amount of the second rising cream to the taste and texture I like. I made yoghurt, custard, quiche. It may be that 'twice-cooked' milk is the problem, said to cause 'ama'. I had no problem with milk, until I had homogenized milk, and the 30-day standard made it much worse. I was told chemicals were added to make milk shelf stable for the 30-day standard. Next, milk was superhomogenized. I have heard that affects leaky gut, or helps cause it.

[@AbbeytheFoodScientist]

Hi Dr. Sten, I have my PhD in food science and one of your followers just sent me your video. From a food science aspect there are a couple of inaccuracies in your video. First, pasteurised milk is not sterile. The aim of pasteurisation is simply to destroy any harmful bacteria in milk. There are plenty of other bacteria, yeasts, and molds that survive this process. Similarly, it's inaccurate to say pasteurised milk has no enzymes. Sure, some enzymes may be heat labile but definitely not all. Thirdly, when a protein denatures it doesn't become solid. It simply unfolds and loses it's original tertiary and possibly secondary structure. In general, I think we would disagree on the harmfulness of pasteurisation but I wish you the best of luck!

I wonder where you live. IN the UK the pasturization is quite gentle, and the stuff that is delivered to the door in glass bottles has cream on the top and will go off . I think perhaps that supermarket milk might be more severely pasturized and that Sten is referring to a more severe regime in the USA.

Here in Norway the population consumes a lot of milk products, but non pasteurized is impossible to find.

[@rebeccalucas6063]

If you know someone who owns cows, ask them for some fresh milk, non pasturized, it's so much better! Unfortunately, most stores are not allowed to sell raw milk, but if you know people who own cows or goats, ask them for some.

Exactly! Thank you Rebecca.

Many more Scandinavians these days are finding out they are lactose intolerant and more lactose-free products are now offered on store shelves within the past ten years. I don't know if this is due to milk now being largely consumed that is pasteurized and homogenized instead of raw and if people are now developing problems with lactose, but something is changing in this regard. My neighbor is a diary farmer and any raw dairy or dairy productsyou consume must be tested thoroughly for listeria and brucellosis and assayed as not having these as they can really ruin your health if you get them.

If you boil milk then it's no longer raw, it's the opposite.

[@dxprt1378]

If you boil milk, it kills the good bacteria in the process, just as if you were to pasteurize it.

[@loganwolv3393]

@@dxprt1378 Idk if it kills all of it. I mean isn't it risky to really have it raw? I'm sure during pasturization process it's a lot more intense than simply boiling it... more heat for a lot longer so i'm sure that it keeps like 80% of it's benefits even if it's boiled.

You can heat it to the body temperature, but definitely not boiling it.

In the UK the milk we get delivered in glass bottles on the doorstep is only gently pasturised and not homogenised - the cream settles to the top. Obviously it is not completely raw - but it will go off, whereas sterilsied milk does not. I wonder if you have yoghurt, and real cheese you will get all the bacteria you need that replaces what you would have got from raw?

What can you do about constipation? I have always had a tendency to have it, but it is worse since I’ve been on the Keto diet. I eat a lot of vegetables. I don’t drink milk, but I eat sour cream and heavy cream. Thank you for your clear explanations delivered at a pace that allows me to understand them.

[@Симона-ъ8и]

I don't know if you still have this problem but I had the same problem.it's normal for the constipation to get worse on keto. What we mostly eat on keto is meat, eggs and milk - it's protein and consuming more protein makes constipation worse. So you need to lower the protein you consume and consume more fiber. This may mean that you will not be on the strictest keto diet, but being constipated is worse. Also you can take magnesium supplement because it's vital mineral that helps with digestion and many more processes in the body

[@paulg687]

Eat vegetables and other foods with high fiber. Cruciferous vegetables are great. Chia seeds also.

I'd like to try Raw Milk, but I'm concerned about its safety. If we're not used to certain bacteria in our gut, I'm afraid it could cause a bad reaction. Wasn't there a reason milk had to be pasteurised? (I'm in the UK) Any comments, anyone? 🤔

[@JohnMoseley]

Here's Wikipedia's take, from its page on pasteurization: "Milk is an excellent medium for microbial growth,[17] and when it is stored at ambient temperature bacteria and other pathogens soon proliferate.[18] The US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says improperly handled raw milk is responsible for nearly three times more hospitalizations than any other food-borne disease source, making it one of the world's most dangerous food products.[19][20] Diseases prevented by pasteurization can include tuberculosis, brucellosis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, and Q-fever; it also kills the harmful bacteria Salmonella, Listeria, Yersinia, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli O157:H7,[21][22] among others."

@@rachelm7525 Does sound as if, if you're very careful with raw milk, you'd probably be fine. Whether the benefits are worth it, I'm not sure. Perhaps, as Ekberg sort of suggests, products like yoghurt and kefir give you the best of both worlds - safety, but with helpful enzymes and good bacteria.

Hi dr Ekberg. You did not mention the hormones in the milk/dairy products. Are they bad? Is it safe? Aren't they denaturate in the acidic pH of the stomach? Are they danurated with the pasturation process? 70oC? Or maybe become inactive during the homogenization? Please elaborate, and if milk is not safe, what is the subsitute? Almond milk? Rice milk? Soy milk?

Well, here’s the gig, Doc: 1. While not a ‘big’ milk drinker, 2. I like the taste of milk. 3.

I am not lactose intolerant or have any allergies or sensitivity to milk 6.

So, I drink milk. What’s your solution?

Drink half & half instead, if you can afford it. The high fat content counters the high sugar, greatly lower the 'Glycemic Load*. Read the ingredient label and buy the one that says only: Milk, Cream.

It's simply not true that Asians across the board have lost lactase and become intolerant to milk.

I love Sten’s videos - always very insightful, thorough and educational - but I often feel that he commits naturalistic fallacies.

[@ericcastillo6011]

I’m pretty sure when you change the nature of things problems occur. Most food distributors change foods obviously to cut prices, so is this bad to say he is wrong? But if your saying he is bias against anything un natural, you may have an argument.

[@julieprinsloo2232]

wonder if that stuff you drinking on your photo is natural?

[@VictorGyo]

Applying the naturalistic fallacy to foods that come from nature is inherently fallacious. Humans don't do better with animal fats over PUFAs just because. It's because one is something we evolved to metabolize and the other is industrial sludge. The null hypothesis or "assumption" therefore is that natural food is always better until proven otherwise. Applies to real meat over beyond meat, water over sodas/juices, whole foods over processed, organic produce over GMO, herbicide/pesticide covered produce.

You can assimilate calcium easily from milk and other animal origins. From plants.... like most of the nutrients from plants they aren't easy bio available, in order to get significant values you need big quantities, so that's not a very good advice

[@Michel-Graillier-fanclub]

Plants contain high amount of oxalates and Salycilates. Milk is much better and absorbable, animal mammals need an absorbable source of calcium to grow. If milk is not desirable, then chewing chicken bones will provide all the calcium you need
