  • A farmer elaborates on the benefits of raw milk, emphasizing its nutritional advantages over processed alternatives and debunking common misconceptions about safety. He highlights the historical context of milk pasteurization and argues for informed consumer choices, advocating for raw milk as a viable, healthful option when produced under proper, safe conditions.
    Mike Guebert, a local small scale integrated livestock farmer who sells raw milk from his farm direct to the public shares his perspective on the safety and benefits of raw unpasteurized milk. According to data from the Center For Disease Control, there are an estimated 9 million people in the U.S. who consume raw milk. To gain a sense of how polarized an issue raw milk is in this country, the following quotes, and information below paint two very different realities.
    www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/rawmilk..." -U.S. Center For Disease Control:
    "Raw milk can carry harmful bacteria and other germs that can make you very sick or kill you. While it is possible to get foodborne illnesses from many different foods, raw milk is one of the riskiest of all."
    www.realmilk.com/rawmilkovervi... Weston A, Price Foundation:
    "FORTY-YEAR-OLD SCIENCE AND ANCIENT HISTORY: Claims that raw milk is unsafe are based on 40-year-old science and century-old experiences from distillery dairy "factory farms" in rapidly urbanizing nineteenth century America. "

      Henri Devigne I personally worked on a dairy for a year and a half and I saw four cows (that I can remember maybe more) who went down with E. coli... It was torture to watch those cows with 104 degree fevers for weeks, they'd produce less than a gallon a day and they'd have to be sold. All of this because of the way the system works. The cows could not eat grass and only had a small area to go outside. Even that area was nothing but a field of dried manure. If all of the cows in the barn were let out into that area you could hardly see the ground! Anything around the electric fence that was green got eaten by the cows, which, of course, was not very much.

We're all still here no worse for the experience. I love raw milk!!

It said they knew the farm they got it from but I guess the problem was what the farmer had been feeding the cow and what the cleanliness was even though they said the milk was tested.

    The fact that raw milk is ''illegal'' (Canada) is ridiculous. It should be consumers choice, like fat burgers and candy. It should be up to me to decide what I can purchase and where. I for one, would LOVE to get my hands on raw milk ( the only one that doesn't make me sick), but whenever I approached a dairy farmer, I would get refused. Even small farmers are too scared to sell privately, in case they get shut down. It's an awful situation, it really is.

      Hello B Charron, it is because by aging of cheese a potentially dangerous bacterias will die. I am a small farmer from Czech Republic. We produce cheese from goat milk and I thank God that it is legal to sell raw milk here. But still with a lot of limits. You can´t find raw milk in the store, but you can buy it only directly at farm. We don´t sell pasterized milk, only raw.

    • @charronfamilyconnect
      @charronfamilyconnect Před 9 lety +2

      Pavel Nýdrle Thanks for your reply! I didn't know that aging cheese would make all the difference? These dangerous bacteria are simply the result of feeding the cows a rich diet of grains which is very acidic, and provides the idea environment in the cows gutt for dangerous strains of bacteria to thrive. Also I believe the cows don't get enough excercise, and are too cramped in next to other cows in doors with poor ventiliation, and this may be the cause of dangerous strains of bacteria. I am curious what you feed your cows in the Czech republic, and what you do differently to reduce the chances of these bacteria from forming? I heard a diet in mostly grass is idea.

    • @Antonienydrlova
      @Antonienydrlova Před 9 lety +9

      B Charron I am sorry for a wrong information. Aging of cheese will NOT kill potential bacterias. But if the cheese is older then 2 months, it is for sure bacteria free. Because if the milk would be infected, it would be visible on cheese during aging. So this is the reason, why you can buy some hard cheeses (aged more then 2 months) from unpasterised milk even in Canada or US. You are right, it is mostly a problem of diet and environment. We have only goats and they are most of the time on green grass. At night and during winter time they also have hay and crushed oats and barley. We don´t feed them with silage (fermented grass). That´s what we do to reduce bacterias. I drink raw milk everyday, our kids (1 and 3 years old) eat fresh cheese from raw milk...

      @@gianluca3985 it's 100% raw milk. By law, they have to put up a sign where it says "raw milk might be harmful to babies etc.etc.", which is true. But I never cook it for myslef. It's important to consume it within 3 days though. Also when you buy it, make sure it stays cool until you are home. The time which it isn't cooled makes a huge difference on the food shelf life. Cause Bacteria multiply exponentially. Also raw milk is better quality during summer, since the cows get fresh grass to eat. Your muscles actually explode after workout when you drink raw milk, trust me 🙂

However this is just a bigger problem as now because it's no longer considered a food product there is no safety standards at all meaning other things could be added, it could be out of date, improperly kept cold while transported ect ect and just leads to more potential illness.

    Thank you Mike for raising happy cows on grass and making traditional milk the old fashioned way. About 3 years ago, I was visiting a friend in Jackson Hole. She asked me to come with her to Boise to visit her family. We were about an hour outside of Boise and all of a sudden the most disgusting, chemical mixed with I don't know what smell I have ever had the misfortune to smell came in the windows. I gagged. My friend seemed not so affected because she did the journey fairly often. 20 seconds later I saw where the smell came from.. a "dairy farm". the cows were lined up in mud facing the side of the road, their heads held in steel/aluminum structures which made it impossible for them to even move their heads side to side, let alone their bodies. The smell came from this "dairy farm". It was not poop smell. It was chemical mixed with poop. I believe it was the cows poop because of the dreadful chemical grains and hormones they are fed. I would not want to drink milk from that place. I asked my friend who is in her late 30s, ... did it smell like that when you were a little girl.. you know, 20 years ago? She said no way. It didn't smell great, but it didn't smell as it does now. Don't drink store bought milk, find a local farmer like Mike! The milk tastes delicious and it's SO good for you! That's what our great great grandparents drank.

Also, notice how healthy the farmer looks for his age. Most American men that age look far more unhealthy.

And if they ever got sick it was a minor issue, like the sniffles, now that l think about that, l'm amazed. Every body in the surrounding area ,that l knew were very healthy people. Working from sun-up to sun-down. They also ate lots of paster raised chicken eggs, and l mean lots. They also ate pork. 3 of my grandparents lived healthy till their 90s. One of my great greatma lived to 104 , died of natural cause. No strokes, no cardiac issues, l never saw them take medication , l did see them make herbal teas, sometimes. All were very healthy. Nowadays "food" is not really food. Read the nutritional labels, the list of ingredients takes 5 minutes to read. I work in a grocery store some people spend up to four hrs. Because they are reading labels. We need to get back to basics. I really enjoyed time on the farm, because my grandparents gave me all kinds of delicious treats and l got to ride on the tractors.

Without those enzymes the body has to work extra hard to do this. It's no wonder there are so many people with lactose intolerance (to the sugars) and allergies with the casein (proteins) in pasteurized milk.

    I think it's interesting that supermarket milk makes everyone fat, but raw organic milk does not. I started giving my dog a bowl of just regular homogenised, full cream milk from the supermarket, and it put on weight really quickly from 16 to 20kg. I stopped giving it the milk and it lost the weight. Interestingly I had heaps of raw organic milk in the spring when it was cheap, so I gave it to my dog, and it didn't put on any weight at all. I wasn't being cruel to my dog, she eats a bit of our food anyways. I definitely think processed milk causes weight gain, as in obesity. Raw organic milk does not seem to cause obesity. This should be looked into further.

      You can choose to buy lowfat or skim milk or nonfat milk.

      ***** I think all the processed milk's are as bad. They all cause me acne without fail. Milk from the farm does not! I also feel really, really tired after drinking processed milk, but I have heaps of energy after the farm milk. When you are getting milk from two cows, you know exactly what you are drinking. There is no hormones used, no artificial insemination, the milk has a taste to it, and the cows at least look healthy. They just take it to a neighbours bull every couple of years to have a calf.

      Cally that is not necessarily true... when you take the fat out you concentrate the existing sugar... skim milk has actually the highest concentratiom of sugars than the others except chocolate milk

    • @peterstone172
      @peterstone172 Před 7 lety

      Cally Alvarado I'm no advocate of supermarket milk, but your statement is totally false. There is no sugar added to regular unflavoured milk. Chocolate milk, yes, but plain milk never has sugar added. It's actually not permitted to have anything added to milk, not in Australia anyway.

    Cooking with raw milk yields a superior finished product, in my experience. For example using it in scratch pancakes yields a lighter fluffy pancake vs using commercially pasteurized milk.

    Excellent video. I'm new to raw milk and have found a local farm who delivers it, and the taste is just delicious. I would never go back to the dead milk. My eyes have been opened to the corruptness in the dairy industry and so sad it's all about money. They should be ashamed of themselves. And for those who believe the mainstream narrative, well that's a shame because you're missing out on some fantastic nutrition because let's face it, we are living in a sick society with too much push onto pharmaceuticals and vaccines, and not natural immune health.

    I grew up drinking raw milk from our dairy cows, and my children also began their lives on raw milk. Commercial milk tastes like cloudy water to be honest. One of my chores as a child was to clean the cow barn. It was clean enough that my brother and I had sleepover parties in the barns and no one ever got dirty (at least in the barn). Our cattle were all clean and well fed, both dairy and beef, and we never got sick from anything we produced.

    When I was in high school, my dad had a milk cow. We sold or gave away milk, and made butter out of the cream. People have no clue as to what they are missing. And don't understand the full control the government has over every aspect of our daily lives. Right now I buy fresh eggs from a friend who has a few hens right here in town! They are the best!

    Thank you for your in depth explanation. I have now been driving 60 miles to a farm in my state, Texas to buy grass fed Jersey & Guernsey whole raw milk for me & my family (raw A2) & we LOVE it & it is showing in our health.

    • @medadvantage1
      @medadvantage1 Před 8 lety +2

      +Pierrette S It's more expensive because the cows need a pasture and hay to be grass fed ALSO where I get my milk the cows are NOT HOLSTEINS, they are Guernsey & Jersey which is A2 protein (not A1) A1 cows milk produces histamines in the human body which can cause neurological symptoms for ADHD & crohns disease. My son has ADHD & I had to take him off of milk 2 years ago because of the A1 protein, but probiotics & dietary enzymes were not able to replace something that was missing in his diet. I tried yogurt but that was A1 protein too, & gave him a spaced out hyper reaction. I started driving to get him this raw A2 Guernsey milk and I am shocked by the change. It must be a stomach enzyme that he has been missing for a very long time because his ADHD seems to be going away.

      I respect ur grind, 60miles is a long road, i also drive the same distance to get raw milk, but whats A2 and A1 thats a new concept for me, i do notice my focus changes and i cant meditate deeper when i drink pasteurized milk

    • @geneva50
      @geneva50 Před 5 lety

      Pierrette S Yes, I too drive a distance to buy raw milk, because it's an excellent nutritious whole food full of enzymes, healthy fat, vitamins A & D and who knows what all else! A gallon keeps for 2 weeks in the fridge!
      Actually I was opposed to milk consumption because I found it gross; but wanted raw butter to get the nutritious "factor X" Dr Royal Lee described, so I bought a gallon of raw milk to try and make my own butter.
      One day, I decided to use some of the raw milk in my protein shake in place of water. Wow! The milk shake gave my body an instant surge of energy I had never experienced. I am sold on raw milk. Pasteurized milk is disgusting, even just a splash in coffee tastes gross now. Add raw, unfiltered honey from a traditional beekeeper (no flow frames and no store bought!) to that raw milk and you'll be in "the land of milk and honey" folks.

    My dad grew up on a small farm in South America, he draw raw milk all of the time and he went on to be a undefeated karate champ in the nation (Guyana.) My two brothers drank raw at least once a month, powered milk was the common choice, and they were pretty damn strong. I never really drank much raw milk and i worked out more than my other two brothers and I'm still the unhealthy one
    I really see no reason for banning raw milk
