I’d definitely make sure you have coconut oil or coconut butter in your diet. Coconut oil is a great alternative for cooking… it’s also great raw but very different from butter.

Thank you for this information! I love butter, have used it all my life, but am now beginning to eat vegan due to health problems. Do you know of a good plant-based alternative to butter? Maybe coconut butter? Just trying to educate myself. Thank you!

We’ll obviously have to agree to disagree (on a lot of things… I see you’ve been making the rounds here). I would never call CLEAN raw milk from a reliable source that does a LOT more testing than pasteurized milk before selling it “disease-riddled.” http://chriskresser.com/raw-milk-reality-is-raw-milk-dangerous

Actually, sugar CAN be VERY natural. What do you think is in fruit? Or breastmilk? Lots of natural sugars. Just like fat, it’s they type of sugar and how it’s processed (or better yet, NOT processed) that matters.

I think you people are really funny.

It’s bad to have artificial sweetener, but it’s good to have refined sugar that is as processed and nasty as artificial sweeteners.

Makes totes sense.

Hint: Sugar is NOT natural, and if you’d bother to look up how it’s processed, you’d stop using it.

The only sugar that might–MIGHT–be somewhat less harmful to you is raw. But not really.

Sugar is poison. The sooner people realize that, the healthier we’ll all be.

Oh for pity’s sake!

Homogenization is nothing more than the mixing up of the milk from different breeds, to have one sorta standardized product. That has NO effect on the quality of the milk.

You’re surely confusing it with pasteurization, which is the heating process that removes assorted pathogens from milk.

Me, I don’t like the idea of risking TB, staph, e coli, brucellosis, scarlet fever, diphtheria and more, just because drinking unpasteurized (read: disease-riddled) milk will supposedly make me healthier than thou.

Sugar isn’t natural, either.

Really.
