Dear Cherie,
I tried to keep it sooo simple...and I did compare this recipe to human
breast milk (mother nature's standard, not the national fluid milk
processor's). Also keep in mind how poorly calcium is absorbed in the
presence of protein...Neal Barnard, M.D., founder of the Physicians
Committe for Responsible Medicine, a 6,000 strong doctors organization
has this to say about calcium in cow's milk:
"I would call milk perhaps the most unhealthful vehicle
for calcium that one could possibly imagine, which is the
only thing people really drink it for, but whenever you
challenge existing dogma...people are resistant."
