Hi Alan and all,

I am in Maple Ridge, BC, Canada

I have to amend the above statement. I became somewhat bloated drinking raw
milk from a cow. I am very interested in what the concensus is on raw milk
on this list. I am a little confused because the livefood list that goes to
We Want To Live by Aajonus Vonderplanitz advocates raw milk products. Sally
Fallons's Nourishing Traditions advocates raw milk but cultured with piima.
Of course the Paleodiet advocates no milk. So I am becoming bewildered.
The raw milk doesn't seem to affect the kids adversely, but I don't want
them to drink it if it is going to be detrimental to their development.
They are currently gluten free/sugar free/junkfood free. On their way to raw.

>(which is why, for example, US meat is banned in Europe) etc..
I wish the same was true in Canada!

All the best,
Susan
