The Theory of Raw Milk…

According to my latest reading, Real Food: What to Eat and Why, the author highly and in great detail recommends drinking whole, raw milk, fresh from the farm. It’s not too difficult to believe the the industrial processes of pasteurization and homogenation destroy necessary vitamins, minerals, and good fats. Yes, yes, we are continuing our exploration of what to eat, a la Gary Taubes, and trying out the notion that much of the low fat, high carb, meat is bad dogma we’ve been fed (sorry) most of our lives is, well, just completely wrong. To that end, I’ve located a couple of sources just outside the city for raw milk. (Texas, surprisingly, has a raw milk farmer certification program). I’m very curious about this, and about whether drinking such milk will increase my body weight. A continuing series…

I’m not wanting to gain weight…I’ve been at my ideal body weight for almost two years, so I’m sensitive about making changes that will cause me to gain more.
