Lita Lee, Lisa Turner and Burton Goldberg See book keywords and concepts | Dairy: raw, organic milk; raw or at least unprocessed cheese; the least-processed yogurt available. Commercial dairy products, particularly milk, are not recommended.
Key Nutrient Sources for Controlling Diabetes
Certain nutrients are required by the body for the metabolism of glucose, specifically chromium, manganese, zinc, B-complex vitamins (particularly pantothenic acid, or vitamin B5), inositol, and vitamin C The following are dietary sources of these nutrients (food sources for each are listed in descending order of importance).
? | D. Lindsey Berkson See book keywords and concepts | In Denmark, 25 percent of schoolchildren drink organic milk. Denmark's parliament has called for a switch to organic agriculture for the entire country by the year 2010.
Eating organically even part of the time helps. A study of male Danish organic farmers showed that those who ate organic food just 25 percent of the time had a 43 percent higher sperm count.
A review of the literature over the last fifty years looked at the benefits of organic versus conventional food crops. | | Buy as much organic milk, butter, cheese, eggs and chocolate as possible. For example, Horizon Organic Dairy (Boulder, Colorado) uses no pesticides, no antibiotics, and no hormones and treats their cows humanely, with access to clean water, organically grown feed, fresh air, and exercise. They know that cows are mothers too. Another company, Organic Cow, from Vermont and New Hampshire, also sells products in Whole Foods and Bread & Circus health-food supermarkets. Nonorganic chocolate may be tainted with lindane.
• Remove cling wrap immediately from cheese or meat. | Ralph Golan, M.D. See book keywords and concepts | Health food stores offer yogurt made from whole (nonhomogenized) milk and nonfat yogurt made from organic milk.
Goat, Soy, Rice, and Nut Milks
Goat's milk products are often good nutritional substitutes in the event of an allergy to cow's milk. (If used as a primary staple for an infant, however, folic acid must be added.)
Many nutritionally oriented physicians, such as Bernard Jensen, D.C., N.D., Ph.D., consider goat's milk to be a superior food source. However, occasionally, cross-reactions will occur, in which case goat's milk products will trigger allergic symptoms as well. | | But I can certainly suggest that you look for organic milk products where available, and whenever feasible use soy, rice, and nut milks.
PEANUTS AND OTHER NUTS AND SEEDS
Peanuts are felt to be a potentially hazardous food source, for several reasons. An aspect of peanut meal is known to inhibit a clot-dissolving enzyme, fibrinolysin. Because of this and certain traits of peanut oil, peanuts can be considered atherogenic (causing arteriosclerotic plaque formation).63 Eating peanuts or peanut butter or using peanut oil exposes one to this risk. | Donald R. Yance, j r.,C.N., M.H., A.H.G., with Arlene Valentine See book keywords and concepts | I favor a moderate intake of organic milk products (unless one is allergic) in the form of yogurt and hard cheeses. However, organic goat products are even a better choice for most people, because goat dairy more closely resembles mother's milk and its enzyme configuration is easier to digest and assimilate. Also, goats are less likely than cows to be raised commercially, so the animals themselves are less contaminated by noxious chemicals.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PHYTOCHEMICALS
There are hundreds and hundreds of phytochemicals in plant foods that help prevent cancer. | Carol Simontacchi See book keywords and concepts | If we were pouring large glasses of ice-cold raw, organic milk into our children's glasses, we might not see as many problems. Pasteurized, homogenized, bovine-growth hormone, and antibiotic-laced milk is not the equivalent of fresh, organic, raw milk, rich in essential fatty acids, protein, and enzymes that deliver the nutrients to the bloodstream in a form the body recognizes. When we discuss wheat or corn or soybeans, we're not discussing the foods that our ancestors ate. Wheat today isn't what it was two hundred years ago. | Earl Mindell and Hester Mundis See book keywords and concepts | BEST HEALTH BUY Certified organic milk from grass-based dairies. Grass-fed cows have more omega-3 fatty acids in their milk than grain-fed cows.
20. Secrets of the Pyramid Revealed
The Food Guide Pyramid, which the USDA created to replace the old four basic food groups (fruits and vegetables, breads and cereals, milk, and meat), is designed to be used by all people, two years of age or older, and consists of five major food categories plus a miscellaneous one—which, sadly, is still far too often indulged in by far too many. | Michael F. Jacobson, Ph.D., Lisa Y. Lefferts and Anne Witte Garland See book keywords and concepts | | Raw milk is not organic milk.) It should become more available as organic dairies become certified under the new federal organic labeling law (see "What does 'organic' mean?" page 53).
þ Write to the Foundation on Economic Trends (see page 209) for a list of companies that have announced they will not knowingly accept dairy products from BGH/BST-treated cows. (Although the hormone hasn't been proven dangerous, it could lead to increased veterinary-drug use. |
Nontoxic, Natural and EarthwiseDebra Lynn Dadd See book keywords and concepts | | To minimize pesticide concentrations, choose cheeses made from organic milk, which are carried in many natural food stores. Some varieties of cheese are made with whole milk or skimmed milk. Ask at your local cheese shop for undyed cheese make from skimmed milk.
Earthwise cheese
Brier Run Farm Goat Cheeses (Brier Run Farm). Seven varieties of award-winning goat-milk cheeses. Brier Run Farm.
Coulee Region Organic Produce Pool. Organic cheeses made from pasteurized or raw milk. Certified.
Deer Valley Farm. Imported Italian ro-mano cheese from raw sheep's milk.
Dutch Mill Cheese Shop. | Susun S. Weed See book keywords and concepts | Most women experience health benefits when they seek out optimal sources of organic milk and milk products and use them in moderation.
If you are lactose-intolerant or suffer stomach distress after drinking milk, you'll be happy to know that fellow sufferers attest to the fact that home-made yogurt, cultured for 24 hours before being refrigerated, is lactose-free.
Anti-Cancer Phytochemicals
The hundreds of thousands of different substances in plants, including nutrients, are known collectively as phytochemicals. | Carol Simontacchi See book keywords and concepts | One child apparently wanted to make a point with her diary: "Organic Fruity Crunch with pills and vitamins, with organic milk with organic pills with organic vitamins . . .") Most ate high-sugar cereal. Four children ate fruit or drank fruit juice, and one child ate eggs; some kids ate nothing.
If the children chose the school lunch program, like their younger siblings, they ate better than if they brought lunch from home—sometimes. On the day the school served pretzels, nut mix, and fruit for lunch, the kids fared no better at school. |
