Welcome to RealMilk.comIn our ongoing efforts to ensure that our website is accurate and up to date, we ask that you contact us at for any comments, corrections or additions. We update the website frequently. For those who wish detailed information on the safety and health benefits of raw milk, we suggest the following documents:
Please note that this website recommends Real Milk--that is, milk that is full-fat, unprocessed, and from pasture-fed cows. We do NOT recommend consumption of raw milk from conventional confinement dairies or dairies which produce milk intended for pasteurization. Nor do we recommend the consumption of lowfat or skim raw milk--there are important protective factors in the butterfat. Real Milk, that is, raw whole milk from grass-fed cows (fed pasture, hay and silage), produced under clean conditions and promptly refrigerated, contains many anti-microbial and immune-supporting components; but this protective system in raw milk can be overwhelmed, and the milk contaminated, in situations conducive to filth and disease. Know your farmer! For sources of raw milk, go to our WHERE pages or contact your nearest local chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation. |
Recent News31 OCTOBER 2009 We have an important opportunity to expand access to raw milk in Texas! At the summer meeting before the Department of State Health Services, we were able to convince the Council to stop the enactment of proposed regulations that would have further restricted access to raw milk and invaded consumers’ privacy. Not only did the Council reject the proposed regulations, but they invited us to submit our own proposal to allow farmers to deliver raw milk to consumers! A group of producers and consumers has submitted a proposal to the agency. Read the proposal, fact sheet, and letters at: http://farmandranchfreedom.org/content/raw-milk-regs WE NEED YOUR HELP! Come to the Council meeting! The Council will hold its regular quarterly meeting on November 4. The last portion of the meeting will be dedicated to presentations about raw milk. Dr. Ted Beals is coming from Michigan to testify. Come show your support by being present in the room, and hear one of the country's leading experts on raw milk!
WHEN: Wednesday, November 4 Note: this is an informational session for the Council -- they will not be voting on anything relating to raw milk at this meeting. The goal of the session is to educate the Council about raw milk and to encourage them to start the process to change the regulations and allow farmers to deliver to their customers. This will be a long process, with many steps along the way, so stay tuned! 31 AUGUST 2009 |
