Benefits of Raw Goats Milk

The Amazing Health Benefits of Raw Goat’s Milk

Hero’s Pets is proud to carry a new line of Raw, Cultured Goat’s Milk by Answers +. Raw Goat’s Milk is the easiest most complete way to deliver raw nutrition. Answers + also makes a full line of raw foods with healing Kombucha Cultures (shown to stimulate the immune system, prevent cancer, and improve digestion and liver function (5)) and added anti-inflammatory Green Tea.

Raw milk tackles chronic ailments including (3):
-Brain and nerve disorders
-Asthma
-Neuralgia
-Fluid Retention
-Liver Disease
-Heavy Metal Poisoning
-Gastric disturbances
-Poor Digestion
-Constipation
-Heart Disease -Malnutrition
-Kidney Disease
-Kidney Stones
-Diabetes
-Obesity
-Colitis
-Irritable Bowel Syndrome
-Diarrhea -Ulcers (more acid-buffering capacity than cow's milk, soy infant formula, and nonprescription antacid drugs)
-Goat milk alkalinizes the digestive system preventing many illnesses
-It contains a group of alkaline minerals, and it does not produce acid in the intestinal system
Goat milk helps to increase the pH of the blood stream because it is the dairy product highest in the amino acid L-glutamine. L-glutamine is an alkalinizing amino acid, often recommended by nutritionists for maintaining intestinal integrity and muscle tissue.

Goat milk compared to Cow’s milk:
-smaller fat molecules -preformed Vitamin A (readily available for use by the body) -higher evolved carotene (pro-Vitamin A with cancer-preventing properties) -more easily and rapidly digestible -13 % more calcium -25 % more vitamin B-6 -47% more vitamin A -134% more potassium -three times more niacin -27 % more of the antioxidant selenium

Is Raw Milk Safe? …. Actually, is pasteurized milk Safe?
“Pasteurized milk from confinement dairies can cause much sickness and many lives.” (2) Pasteurization not only changes milk but it turns it from a healing food to a potentially harmful food. Pasteurization destroys enzymes, diminishes vitamin content, denatures milk proteins, destroys vitamins C, B12, and B6, kills beneficial bacteria, promotes pathogens and is associated with allergies, tooth decay, growth problems, osteoporosis, arthritis, heart disease and cancer (4). Today’s certified raw milk has stricter standards then pasteurized milk. The bacteria count for the standard plate count for pasteurized milk is 15,000 per ml after pasteurization and 25,000 per ml after pasteurization for cream. There are fewer bacteria allowed in certified raw milk then pasteurized milk.

What about Lactose Intolerance?
Lactose is a milk sugar that requires the enzyme lactase to split it into simple sugars for easy digestion. Raw milk is rich in lactase enzyme, aiding in the digestion of lactose. During pasteurization, heat destroys the lactase enzyme. Many people and pets not producing the lactase enzyme cannot digest pasteurized milk, but can digest raw milk without problems.

Why Add Cultures?
Below is a complete breakdown of the ingredients of Kombucha tea and a beneficial function of each. Remember, this describes the final product of the tea, fermented with a Kombucha culture.
LACTIC ACID: essential for the digestive system.
ACETIC ACID: inhibits harmful bacteria.
MALIC ACID: used in the body's detoxification process.
OXALIC ACID: encourages the cellular production of energy.
GLUCONIC ACID: Effective against many yeast infections such as Candida and thrush.
BUTYRIC ACID: may help combat yeast infections such as Candida.
NUCLEIC ACID: Works with the body to aid healthy cell regeneration.
AMINO ACID: A group of acids that are the building blocks of protein. ENZYMES: Proteins that act as catalysts, speeding the rate at which biochemical reactions proceed.
Kombucha also contains Vitamin Groups B and C, Beneficial Yeasts and LIVING Bacteria (like the cultures in yogurt… but more potent and widespread).
