- 0:35None. Sadie Morrell, thank you for
- 0:40joining me in the trenches. Thank, thank you for having me.
- 0:44I say trenches, obviously metaphorically, but there is an
- 0:48information war. I mean particularly around milk.
- 0:50I mean, just about everywhere you go in the world, you cannot
- 0:55drink unpasteurized milk. Well, not in the states.
- 0:58We've been working on this for 25 years.
- 1:03So the milk is regulated by the states, not the federal
- 1:07government. So what we've been doing is
- 1:11working on the state level to liberalise the laws.
- 1:15We have a website, realmilk.com, and the when we started there
- 1:22were about 30 sources of raw milk in America and now there's
- 1:26about 5000. So it's very available in
- 1:30America now. In other parts of the world, it
- 1:33just depends. But we also list, we list
- 1:37sources in Europe and other places.
- 1:40What is your background? I'm an English major, of course
- 1:45it totally qualifies me for what I'm doing.
- 1:49Actually, actually, actually, no, wait, hold on.
- 1:51That does qualify you because I think people who get stuck into
- 1:54the academic paradigms get, they get restricted by the lanes in
- 2:00which they are put That's. Right.
- 2:02Well, you know, the other English major who's made a name
- 2:06for himself is Joel Salatin, the famous farmer.
- 2:09So I like to say that neither of us is qualified for what we do.
- 2:13But no. But I'm a writer and I wrote a
- 2:17book called Nourishing Traditions that sold very well,
- 2:22and it's been quite influential. And I've written other books
- 2:26besides. But Nourishing Traditions was
- 2:28what? That was the first volley in
- 2:30this war against the low fat paradigm, the the pasteurised
- 2:37milk paradigm. Well, let's just start with the
- 2:40absolute basics, because somebody told me recently that
- 2:44just drinking cow's milk as a whole is not a good idea.
- 2:49You know what, Jeremy? I've been around a long time and
- 2:53I have yet to see a person turn into a cow by drinking cow.
- 3:00When we look, and of course we look at the work of Weston
- 3:03Price, and the healthiest people that he studied were those who
- 3:06had herds, and we're drinking raw cow's milk or raw goat's
- 3:11milk. We have the example in the
- 3:14Scandinavia of the people who drink reindeer milk.
- 3:17They're very healthy. We have the Mongolians who drink
- 3:22mare's milk. We have people in Africa who
- 3:25drink camel's milk all over the world, for thousands of years,
- 3:30people have drunk the milk of various species of animals and
- 3:34they're healthier for it because milk is such a complete food.
- 3:39I was in China a few months ago and I drank camel's milk and it
- 3:44wasn't too bad. Yeah, camel's milk is saltier
- 3:48than other milks, which I think is kind of interesting.
- 3:51Yes, but it wasn't too bad. I won't drink it and on purpose.
- 3:56Well, cow's milk is just so absolutely delicious when the
- 4:00cows are eating grass and when the and when it's full fat, it's
- 4:05just, it's like an elixir. But then, Saddy, why is there a
- 4:09war on unpasteurized milk? Well, it started back in the
- 4:151800s and we really didn't have a problem with the milk at that
- 4:18time. The milk in New York and the
- 4:20other cities was filthy. It was coming from confinement
- 4:24dairies in the cities who and the cows were eating the swill
- 4:28from whiskey production. So they're very poorly
- 4:31nourished. And they actually added chalk to
- 4:34the milk to make it look white. And the death rate among
- 4:39children in these cities was 50%.
- 4:43Now wasn't only the fault of the milk.
- 4:46There were no sewers. There's no clean water.
- 4:50I mean, the cities were just squalid.
- 4:52The festering heaps of horse and mule manure.
- 4:58And all of this was called the milk problem.
- 5:01It was all blamed on the milk and certainly it was partly due
- 5:03to the milk. And eventually we got things
- 5:07cleaned up. You know, the car replaced the
- 5:09horse and they put sewers in and they cleaned up the water and,
- 5:13and we got refrigeration and we set up a system of bringing
- 5:18clean milk from the countryside into the cities and the death
- 5:22rate went down. But then pasteurisation came
- 5:27along as a supposed solution to this and the the problem had
- 5:33already been solved. But the people could see the
- 5:38monopolist could see a way of monopolising and controlling the
- 5:42sale of milk by pasteurising because it forced the farmers to
- 5:47sell their milk to the dairy company by law and they could no
- 5:53longer set their price and and the dairy companies were the
- 5:56ones making the profit on the milk.
- 6:00I'm very glad that you are in line with Weston Price because
- 6:04Weston Price has done incredible work over the years.
- 6:09Well, so Weston Price. He died in 1948.
- 6:14The. Year.
- 6:14Well, I mean the whole foundation.
- 6:16Oh, and the foundation? We set up the foundation in in
- 6:182000 to carry on his legacy because really, he's the one
- 6:23who's shown us what kind of diet supports true health in people.
- 6:29Yeah, he was a dentist, wasn't he?
- 6:31Pardon me. He was a dentist, wasn't he?
- 6:34He was a dentist and for 10 years he went to different parts
- 6:38of the globe looking for truly isolated, what do you call
- 6:43primitive people? And he found fourteen groups
- 6:46that had superb health, no cavities, broad faces, naturally
- 6:51straight teeth, robust physiques, ease of childbirth in
- 6:57the women and absence of chronic disease.
- 7:01So these people don't exist anymore and it's certainly not
- 7:04true of our society. But then the question is, well,
- 7:08what were these people eating? And the diets were different
- 7:12everywhere. Some of them did have milk, of
- 7:14course, it was raw milk. But the Eskimos and the South
- 7:17Sea Islanders, they didn't have milk, but they were equally
- 7:20healthy. The cultures that didn't have
- 7:24milk made a point of eating bones.
- 7:27They crushed up the bones of small animals or fish or birds
- 7:32and added the crushed bones to their food to get calcium.
- 7:37The the the common denominator in all of these diets was that
- 7:43they were very high in minerals and very high in what we call
- 7:48the fat soluble vitamins AD and K.
- 7:52And where do we get those vitamins in all the foods we're
- 7:54being told not to eat the eggs and the yolks of the eggs with
- 7:59butter, organ meats. Blood was a very good source of
- 8:03these nutrients. And I see a little grimace
- 8:07there, but you know, a blood sausage is fixture in European
- 8:12diets ever it was. So it's much.
- 8:16Easier, but I think I think I'll I'll be OK with the steak and
- 8:21and and saturated fat. Well, but The thing is, The
- 8:25thing is the steak is fine and if you always want to eat meat
- 8:28with the fat, but you're not going to get your fat soluble
- 8:31vitamins from the steak, you need to eat liver once a week,
- 8:35just like our ancestors did to get the vitamin A.
- 8:39Yeah. I mean what you're touching on
- 8:41there is sort of ketogenic, low carbohydrate, almost almost
- 8:45carnivore type diet. Well, not the way it's practised
- 8:50today. And these, they don't understand
- 8:53the importance of the organ meats and the fats.
- 8:58And you do need carbs. There were very few diets that
- 9:03didn't have carbs. The ones that didn't have carbs,
- 9:0780% of calories were from fat. That's a little bit hard to do,
- 9:12but we need carbs for thyroid function.
- 9:15So it's not it's it's low carb, but it's not no carb.
- 9:20What's the name of that? Is it a Swedish?
- 9:23Swedish explorer about 100 years ago who went and lived with the
- 9:26Eskimos. Stefansen, Stefansen.
- 9:29Yeah, that's him. Yeah.
- 9:31Incredible results. Yeah, but he's stressed how
- 9:35important the fat was. And he, he said that when
- 9:38traditional cultures kill, like kill the Buffalo, OK, the first
- 9:42thing they did was eat the brain, the liver, the marrow,
- 9:48which is 90% fat, and the tongue.
- 9:52Then they they kept some of the lean meat, but most of it that
- 9:57was just thrown away to the dogs and they kept all the fat.
- 10:01So on an old Buffalo you'd have 50 lbs of fat and then the meat
- 10:06was smoked or dried, preserved in some way, and they always ate
- 10:11the meat with the fat. So just for clarity, raw and
- 10:16unpasteurized milk are the same thing.
- 10:19That's right. But but unpasteurized comes from
- 10:23Louis Pasteur, who hated germs. Yes, right.
- 10:27Well, he was. He was quite a a manipulator
- 10:34actually. And a fraud is, is what you're
- 10:36wanting to say. Yeah.
- 10:38Well, I don't say fraud, but he was very political and he was
- 10:43determined to get his view out there.
- 10:48And we is very, there's quite a bit of evidence that he cheated
- 10:52on some of his studies and he was out to smell vaccine.
- 10:57Yeah. He, he saw a lot of money in it.
- 10:59Yeah. His counterpart at the time, I
- 11:02think, was Antonio Bechamp. Who?
- 11:05Yeah, who I've whose work I've read and I've find extremely
- 11:09persuasive. Who said that we have these
- 11:11microzymes, the tiny, tiny little specks, and they're sort
- 11:14of potential life forms. And then, depending on the
- 11:19circumstances, they will turn into, you know, different types
- 11:24of bacteria. But now you've said that the CDC
- 11:29and the FDA consider raw milk the enemy.
- 11:33But to what end? I mean, how do they gain from
- 11:36from demonising it in? The pockets of the dairy
- 11:39industry, the dairy industry, it's huge, it's very powerful.
- 11:43The executives earn salaries in the 1,000,000 while the farmers
- 11:48are going out of business. And in the last 20 years they
- 11:53have not raised the prices that they're paying the farmer.
- 11:56So the farmer's getting the same price for his milk that he got
- 11:59in World War 2 and he can't make World War Two.
- 12:04He he's getting $1.50 a gallon. I've heard prices as low as
- 12:09$0.65 a gallon for the farmers and they can't, they can't
- 12:13survive and the farms are going out of business.
- 12:15I think it's the rate of 16 per week.
- 12:18And it's just decimated the Country Life, the rural life in
- 12:21America. So what these farmers learn or
- 12:25realise is they can they can actually make a decent living
- 12:28selling raw milk and many have transitioned to raw milk.
- 12:33So here in South Africa it's still illegal to sell raw milk.
- 12:39Everything has to be pasteurised.
- 12:41But you can, you can get around it by going to say a farmer and
- 12:46you say look, it's it's for animals.
- 12:47And then they'll sell it to you or even give it to you.
- 12:50Yeah, so I have a farm here in Maryland and we sell milk for
- 12:54dogs and cats. And quote unquote.
- 12:59There are a lot of cats, dogs and cats around here because
- 13:02it's our best seller, you know, people are lined up for it.
- 13:06And we have a number of states like that, New Jersey, I think
- 13:10Florida, North Carolina. So there's a few states where
- 13:14that loophole is definitely being used.
- 13:18Now, I've been told my whole life that raw milk is bad for
- 13:22you. Well, you've been told it's
- 13:25dangerous and it'll kill you. So we have a gal who looked
- 13:31very, very carefully at all the statistics.
- 13:34And since 2000, with probably 10 to 20 million people drinking
- 13:41raw milk, there may have been 2 deaths.
- 13:45One of these deaths I don't think existed at all, and the
- 13:48other death I think was due to something else, but they blame
- 13:51it on raw milk. So they say there's been two
- 13:53deaths, but there's been 5 or 6 deaths from pasteurised milk.
- 13:56So it's not like in pasteurised milk, it's completely safe
- 14:00either. But what is the argument against
- 14:06raw milk? What is the actual argument?
- 14:07Well. That it's dangerous, that it'll
- 14:09kill you, that it's. No, but like, why?
- 14:11Why what? Like what's in it that's going
- 14:12to kill you? These bacteria in it and the
- 14:14bacteria are dangerous and they'll kill you.
- 14:17But The thing is, well, we produce raw milk that has no
- 14:21bacteria in it. It's very possible to do it in a
- 14:24clean way, but even if it does have bacteria in it, they're not
- 14:29necessarily pathogenic bacteria. And we know now that you need
- 14:33good bacteria in the gut, and the bacteria in raw milk help
- 14:39populate the gut with the good bacteria.
- 14:41So it's all based on an outdated paradigm that bacteria are bad.
- 14:46And we now know that you can't live without bacteria.
- 14:50But the the bureaucrats are stuck in their old beliefs, I
- 14:56guess. But is it actually evidence that
- 14:59the bacteria in raw milk is toxic?
- 15:04No, I mean, bacteria can turn toxic.
- 15:08Let's just say the milk is extracted in very, very
- 15:13unsanitary conditions and the milk could turn to the bacteria
- 15:17could turn toxic. But, and that's why you need to
- 15:23know what you're doing when you're milking cows.
- 15:25You know, not everyone is qualified to, to be a dairy
- 15:31farmer. Not, not everybody has that kind
- 15:34of personality to be very meticulous.
- 15:37But we have plenty of unregulated dairies in this
- 15:41country that are producing perfectly good milk.
- 15:46And nobody's getting sick, and nobody's certainly nobody's
- 15:49dying. OK but the counter argument
- 15:52might be then. OK, but then do people get sick
- 15:55from pasteurised milk? Yes, and they do.
- 15:57In fact we had a case, it was in 2007.
- 16:00There were three deaths from milk that had been completely,
- 16:05perfectly pasteurised and there were three deaths and a lot of
- 16:09people sick. And you know the other thing,
- 16:11Jeremy, which they never tell you, the largest outbreak of
- 16:16foodborne illness in history took place in 1980, four, 1985,
- 16:21and it was from a dairy that was pasteurising the milk it was
- 16:24from. Pasteurising really, What
- 16:26happened? And it was hundreds of thousands
- 16:28of people got sick. I don't know if there were any
- 16:31deaths, but oh, they just get carried on and maybe looked at
- 16:36some of the sanitary procedures or something.
- 16:38But the pasteurisation did not protect the public.
- 16:45The process of pasteurising milk though, does it also reduce the
- 16:50nutritional value? Yes, and this is what we've been
- 16:54saying and we know that all the enzymes are killed when you
- 16:58pasteurise milk and every vitamin and mineral in milk.
- 17:03And of course, it's a very nutrient dense food, has a
- 17:09enzyme that attaches to it and ensures complete assimilation
- 17:14because milk is designed for a baby that does not have a
- 17:19digestive system that's fully online yet.
- 17:21So those enzymes have to be there.
- 17:24And that that's what makes milk so good for people with
- 17:28compromised digestion, people who are, you know, have a lot of
- 17:34health problems, low energy because all the nutrients are
- 17:37absorbed. Now you've got two things going
- 17:40on here. You've got pasteurisation, the
- 17:42old type of pasteurisation, which was a slow heating to 160°
- 17:49and that's bad, but it's not nearly as bad as what they do
- 17:52today, which is ultra high temperature or high temperature
- 17:56pasteurisation. That is a rapid heating pass.
- 18:01Super heated stainless steel plates.
- 18:04It takes the milk to 280°F. That is so hot that not only is
- 18:09it destroyed the enzymes, it's destroyed all the proteins in
- 18:12the milk and that's where you get allergies, you get
- 18:15anaphylactic shock. They've been there are 20 to 30
- 18:19deaths per year from anaphylactic shock to milk.
- 18:22And that's because these proteins are foreign proteins
- 18:25for the body. And you know, there's the body
- 18:29really doesn't have a very good way of dealing with them.
- 18:35So if I'm correct, the process of pasteurisation it's basically
- 18:41just heating up the milk and then cooling it down quickly?
- 18:44Well, it's either heating it up slowly or heating up very
- 18:47rapidly and then cooling down. But it's the heating, it's not
- 18:53the cooling that's the problem. Which kills everything.
- 18:56Yeah, which really kills everything and that's why milk
- 19:01drinking is associated with all these problems, allergies,
- 19:05asthma, respiratory disease and digestive disorders.
- 19:10And of course, the parents take the children off of milk.
- 19:13They say my kids allergic to milk.
- 19:15Well, they are. They're allergic to pasteurised
- 19:17milk. But very often they find that
- 19:21the children can tolerate raw milk beautifully and thrive on
- 19:25it. Well our kid is 17 months old
- 19:30and he's had raw milk and he was fine.
- 19:34And he also had breast milk, right?
- 19:36Yes, He's never actually he's Yeah, well, he's never had
- 19:39formula. Yeah, only breast milk.
- 19:40And he's thriving, right? He's never been sick.
- 19:44Yeah, I have 5 grandchildren all brought up in raw milk and
- 19:48they've never been sick. Oh, and unvaccinated, I might
- 19:51add. Yeah, same with me.
- 19:53Unvaccinated raw milk, cod liver oil, Those are the three.
- 19:56That's the triumvirate for making sure that you have
- 19:59healthy kids. And it's, you know, they're much
- 20:03healthier than I was. They, they don't have allergies,
- 20:08they don't have asthma, they're just perfectly normal, healthy
- 20:13children. And that is the, the, the right
- 20:18of a child is to be healthy like that.
- 20:20You just know how have to know how to do it.
- 20:23And then to make matters worse, not only is the milk
- 20:26pasteurised, but then they mark it hard, low fat or even skim
- 20:33milk. Yeah, I mean, pasteurised low
- 20:36fat milk is a poison, absolute poison, because it will not only
- 20:42not give you the vitamin A you need, but it will deplete you of
- 20:45vitamin A you're getting from other foods.
- 20:48How will it do that? Well, when you need, when you
- 20:52eat protein, the body releases vitamin A from the liver because
- 20:57you need vitamin A to process the protein, to assimilate the
- 21:00protein. So I'm very concerned about
- 21:02these high protein diets that don't have enough fat in them,
- 21:06that don't have cod liver oil, where they're not eating liver,
- 21:09they're not getting vitamin A, not eating butter.
- 21:14And that's that's the danger I think of these carnivore diets.
- 21:18They really don't understand how traditional cultures ate meat.
- 21:23They threw most of the meat away in an animal and ate the fat in
- 21:27the organ meats. And I, I know it's, it's hard
- 21:31for us because we don't have the taste for that.
- 21:34It's actually easier in Europe to do this because there's a lot
- 21:37of liver sandwiches, liver Pate, blood sausage and all these
- 21:43nutrient dense foods if you'll eat them, you know, but we don't
- 21:47have those things in the States. So you have to try harder.
- 21:52Yeah, that gentleman who lived with the Eskimos that we spoke
- 21:55about, he only ate, I think seal meat and and basically fish and
- 22:00then some vegetables once here and there because of, you know,
- 22:05the the conditions were not conducive to to, to, to plants.
- 22:10And he was perfectly healthy, but he had a berries.
- 22:11They had berries in the summer. Big treat.
- 22:15But when you say seal, I mean the seal, of course, is a very
- 22:19savvy animal. And they ate the fat, seal fat.
- 22:23And it was also the highest food in vitamin A that Doctor Price
- 22:27ever tested. So it's very rich in vitamin A.
- 22:32The problem is that people don't want to eat a cute animal.
- 22:36They don't want to eat what? A cute animal.
- 22:39A cute animal. Yeah, I mean a seal.
- 22:42The seal's cute. I.
- 22:44Don't know I I wouldn't want to eat a cat or a dog but.
- 22:48I can. I think I could.
- 22:49Eat a seal. But you said that most of the
- 22:54nutrients get lost in the pasteurising pasteurisation
- 22:57process. But I mean, not only do they get
- 23:01lost, they get completely destroyed.
- 23:04Well the enzymes get destroyed and some of the nutrients are
- 23:08destroyed. B2 riboflavin is destroyed.
- 23:12Vitamin C is completely destroyed.
- 23:13Now, when you think of it, someone.
- 23:15B12. What?
- 23:17B12 also. B12B6 So some really key
- 23:21nutrients are completely destroyed, others are
- 23:24diminished. But let's just think of somebody
- 23:27driving camels across the desert.
- 23:30The vitamin C in the milk is what's going to keep them from
- 23:33getting scurvy. Yeah, not eating oranges.
- 23:39Yeah, I mean it's, you're getting the all the vitamins
- 23:42that were in the grass or in the foliage that they ate.
- 23:47We, we can't digest leaves like those kind of leaves, we can't
- 23:50digest grass. But the animals have 3 or 4
- 23:54stomachs and they do it for us and they give us this beautiful,
- 23:58delicious, I don't know, concoction of grass in the milk
- 24:04with, with fat, with fat so that you are digesting the protein.
- 24:09Sorry but could be horseshoe back to the original comment
- 24:12that well that's because we shouldn't be drinking milk from
- 24:17an animal. Well, that if you want to, you
- 24:22know, I would say suit yourself, but I wouldn't.
- 24:28I don't think there's any religion that tells you not to
- 24:30eat drink. An.
- 24:32Animal Why don't we drink human milk?
- 24:35Well, some people do. You know, John D Rockefeller
- 24:39drank human milk. He got it donated, or he bought
- 24:42it and he drank raw human milk. He thought that was part of the
- 24:46reason he lived so long. It's not a, it's not a thought
- 24:50that I like, but it is nonetheless A valid question.
- 24:53Human milk though, and sometimes they drink human milk up to the
- 24:56age of 5, so I mean, there's certainly nothing.
- 25:02And it's highly nutritious. Oh my goodness.
- 25:05Yeah. If the mother's eating well,
- 25:07yeah. I mean, how do you, how do you
- 25:12push back when you have a system, a state imposed system
- 25:17that is against raw milk? We have just done it
- 25:23persistently, quietly. We've never given up.
- 25:29We've created a very strong demand.
- 25:34What's interesting to me in the early days of this, the state
- 25:38regulators were always coming after these little farms and
- 25:41trying to shut them down or taking their inventory and
- 25:45throwing it away. It was terribly wasteful.
- 25:47And they stopped doing that now because they were we, we
- 25:53embarrassed them. We, we, we got in the news, we
- 25:58got on the Internet, we came to the trials and testified and
- 26:04they, they just were very embarrassed by this.
- 26:06And it's just stopped. All of this harassment has
- 26:13stopped. Raw powdered milk for for
- 26:18babies. I don't know.
- 26:22You can't do powdered milk raw, I don't think, or.
- 26:25Formula, shall we say? Yeah.
- 26:28So there's several problems with formula, but one is that the
- 26:34milk is highly processed, powdered, and that destroys the
- 26:39proteins. Also, they only put, there's
- 26:42very few formulas that have whole milk.
- 26:44They put skim milk in the formula.
- 26:46And now if you're feeding formula to animals, the third
- 26:50ingredient that's listed on the label is animal fat because they
- 26:54know that these animals can't survive or thrive without animal
- 26:59fat. But human babies don't get any
- 27:01animal fat in their formula. They skim milk and vegetable
- 27:06oils. It's and that's just because the
- 27:10skim milk is cheaper. If you do drink skim or low fat
- 27:15milk, I'm guessing you need to counter that thing with a lot
- 27:19more saturated fat in your diet. Yeah, so eat a lot of butter.
- 27:25Which begs the question, why are you?
- 27:26Why are you taking the butter out of the milk?
- 27:29You know. Yes.
- 27:31But here's the thing, the it's my back door.
- 27:39The the industry has figured out how to maximise their profit on
- 27:47the butter fat and they don't make a lot of profit if they
- 27:50just sell butter or if they sell whole milk.
- 27:52If they take the butter fat out and put it in ice cream, the
- 27:57they make five times as much on the butter fat.
- 28:00So what they want you to do is be on this horrible low fat diet
- 28:04all day long and by 8:00 in the evening you're just craving fat
- 28:09and you go to the freezer and get the half gallon of ice cream
- 28:13and you eat the whole thing. That's what they want you to do
- 28:16because that's where they make the money is an ice cream.
- 28:20Do you think those authorities in government know the truth or
- 28:26they're just being paid off? The accountants in the dairy
- 28:28industry know the truth. It's all it's all about
- 28:32maximising profit off of this this product's milk.
- 28:38The other thing, so the things that make the most profit are
- 28:41ice cream cheese and whey powder.
- 28:45And whey powder is the you know what they do with the whey from
- 28:52making cheese, and that's extremely profitable.
- 28:54Bodybuilders love it. Yeah, they shouldn't be.
- 28:57Drinking, taking it, it's, it's very toxic to the kidneys, but
- 29:01it's pushed on the bodybuilders, you know, people have schemes,
- 29:07sales schemes and it's pushed on these people so.
- 29:12You might be at an advantage now with Bobby Kennedy in his
- 29:17position. Bobby drinks raw milk.
- 29:21In fact, he's we've supplied him with raw milk a few times.
- 29:27Yeah. And yeah.
- 29:32So do you think he's going to? Attack this or is the Is the
- 29:35dairy industry too strong? See this is all.
- 29:38First of all, this is regulated by the health departments or the
- 29:43agriculture departments in the individual states.
- 29:46It's not regulated by the federal government.
- 29:47So all he can do is encourage it and but there's nothing legal
- 29:53that he can do to kind of free up raw milk.
- 29:57And actually, Jeremy, we don't need to.
- 29:59We've really accomplished what we set out to accomplish.
- 30:03Just for example in. Maryland.
- 30:05Here where I am, I got the first pet milk permit and now there's
- 30:09about four or five dozen in the whole state.
- 30:12There's raw milk everywhere now in Maryland.
- 30:16But did you say, did you say pet?
- 30:18Milk. Yeah, Dogs and cats.
- 30:22OK, so it's still not quite. There yet it's I mean, you still
- 30:25have to put it under the guise of animals.
- 30:28Well. We haven't changed the milk.
- 30:32It's a loophole, there's no question.
- 30:33It's a loophole that we've taken advantage of, but and that's
- 30:38because we could not get the cooperation of the Department of
- 30:42Health. They they, you know, stymied us
- 30:46every every, every step of the way.
- 30:51So we tried something else. Does pasteurisation.
- 30:55Only occur with cow's milk. What about goat's milk?
- 31:01Well, they they can. Pasteurise any kind of milk.
- 31:04There's not a lot of goat goat milk consumed.
- 31:08I I've never seen goat milk in the stores.
- 31:12I guess. I guess there's a.
- 31:13Little bit, but yeah, they make goat cheese with the goat milk.
- 31:17I'm not a fan. Though I find the.
- 31:19Taste just a bit too sharp. Yeah, the battle against.
- 31:28Pasteurisation. I mean, how old is this?
- 31:31Maybe like a century. So for the yeah, the first.
- 31:35Mandatory pasteurisation was in 1913 in New York City and there
- 31:42were people there who were in favour of raw milk.
- 31:45They thought it was healthier, they thought it was just a safe.
- 31:49But the argument they used was, well we don't have the money to
- 31:54inspect all these little farms. If we had just the pasteurising
- 31:59plants, we could just inspect there.
- 32:01And that was the reason given for making pasteurisation
- 32:04mandatory. And I had my own inspector when
- 32:07we first started out. She said, Sally, we, we just
- 32:10can't afford to regulate and inspect all these little
- 32:14dairies. Then that's why we don't want to
- 32:17do this. So it's just the, it's, I don't
- 32:22want to say the laziness of the bureaucrats, but it's, it's all
- 32:25it comes back down to money. And how can they afford to
- 32:30inspect all these small dairies that you would have if you were
- 32:33doing raw milk? But for the.
- 32:37Entirety of human existence. They they've been drinking raw
- 32:41milk. That's right.
- 32:42That's right. We're making cheese.
- 32:46Or fermenting it in some way? Is it safe to freeze?
- 32:52Raw milk, yes. People who can't get out to a
- 32:56dairy very often, we advise them to buy what they need and freeze
- 33:00it and the enzymes are maintained.
- 33:05What What we don't recommend is freeze drying because even
- 33:10though there's no heat involved, there's a study that showed that
- 33:13the proteins are just as warped and distorted with the freeze
- 33:16drying as with heat treatment. How do you?
- 33:24Verify the source of your of the safety of your raw milk.
- 33:28Do you just have to kind of do do a lot of homework?
- 33:30Yeah. So the raw.
- 33:32Milk should be coming from a farmer who's milking his own
- 33:34cows. OK.
- 33:36And there are now very accurate tests you can do on the farm.
- 33:44We test every day. We test our milk every day and
- 33:48we test for what's called coliform, which is the benign
- 33:51bacteria. But if you have a high coliform
- 33:54count, you might have some pathogens.
- 33:56Well, our counts are 01/2, I mean.
- 34:01If it gets any higher. I know that something hasn't
- 34:03been cleaned and we fix it, but to me this is a game changer.
- 34:07This this coliform test because you can keep track of what's
- 34:13going on with your milk and, and, but I mean, OK, so let's.
- 34:18Just talk about the layman. If you are just visiting a farm,
- 34:23I mean and you eyeballing, what are some of the things you
- 34:26should look out for? Well, you should look for
- 34:28cleanliness. You should look for Do they
- 34:31test? Do they clean out their parlour
- 34:36floor every day? Not a lot of farmers do, yeah.
- 34:41So they should and. Taste how?
- 34:43How long does it last in the refrigerator?
- 34:45It should last two weeks. I heard the other way around.
- 34:49That that if it lasts too long, that's not a good sign.
- 34:56Well, because then because it because then.
- 34:58Because then it's got additives potentially.
- 35:01Well, it should last. Without additives it should last
- 35:03because it's really clean, right, right, right.
- 35:06OK. Right, I got you so.
- 35:11The way in which the cows. Themselves eat also does that
- 35:15make a difference yes so we. Call this a campaign for real
- 35:19milk. And by real we mean full fat,
- 35:23non pasteurised and pasture fed. Grass fed.
- 35:26Because grass is the natural food for a cow.
- 35:29She's uniquely designed to digest grass.
- 35:33Grass and Clover so. Our cows are out on pasture all
- 35:37the time now. At this time of year there's no
- 35:40pasture, but we give them hay when they come in, we give them
- 35:43a little bit of grain and we give them some alfalfa pellets.
- 35:49And the actual milking. Itself, is our machines fine?
- 35:53Yeah, we, yes, we use. Machines.
- 35:57But as long as they're clean. Oh yes, we have a.
- 36:00Way of cleaning them. They get cleaned every day.
- 36:06And the cows. Not not only grass fed, but they
- 36:11should be fairly free of antibiotics and other
- 36:14injections. Oh absolutely.
- 36:16And there's no. Need for them we, we've never
- 36:19used antibiotics. We use homoeopathic herbs and
- 36:22and things like that. But if the cow is producing very
- 36:27thick milk, we take her off the line and we let the calves drink
- 36:32from her. So I think what I'm what I'm.
- 36:36Yeah. So the picture I'm trying to
- 36:37paint you is it's not just the milk that's in the bottle, but
- 36:40it's the it's the it's, it's the lead up to that that bottle
- 36:45well. We we milk into cans.
- 36:48I mean, there's nothing that touches the milk and there's no
- 36:51exposure to air between the the teeth and the can.
- 36:56That's it, Just goes right in. And then we.
- 37:02Put the can. In a kind of.
- 37:03Cradle and we first of all we philtre the milk and pour it
- 37:07through a philtre, and then we put the can in a kind of cradle
- 37:10and. Bottle that way.
- 37:14And then it's immediately chilled.
- 37:17So the exposure to air is possibly 10 seconds and then the
- 37:23top goes on and then it's chilled.
- 37:27And what about heating milk That what on the.
- 37:31Heating. Milk on the stove or in the
- 37:32microwave or whatever? Well, you shouldn't use a.
- 37:35Microwave. You know that you're trying to
- 37:40trap me here. You shouldn't use microwave
- 37:44because it destroys the food if you want to heat it.
- 37:50Like set it in a container C set in simmering water and heat it
- 37:57up. You can go to 110° but no
- 38:01higher. And so if you're you want raw
- 38:04yoghurt, you don't go fast. 110 Yeah, I'm asking that.
- 38:08Actually, I mean, I was being a bit facetious, but with our with
- 38:11our little boy, we still warm up milk, but we warm it up in
- 38:15water. Yes, right, right.
- 38:19And it's still you can touch it, yes.
- 38:22I mean, it's not, it's not hot. It's not hot, it's just warm.
- 38:25So if you think of Fahrenheit, the Fahrenheit system 0 is an
- 38:32extremely cold day and 100 is a very hot day, right?
- 38:38Can you drink more raw milk than you can pasteurised milk?
- 38:45Yeah. Oh yeah.
- 38:46Yeah, you can drink raw milk exclusively and in fact it's
- 38:50called the raw milk diet or the milk cure.
- 38:54And that was done in hospitals back in the early part of the
- 38:571900's. The Mayo Clinic with a very
- 38:59famous hospital today, started off by administering the milk
- 39:05cure and it was very successful. The diet was just about four
- 39:10quarts of raw milk sipped slowly throughout the day, like 1/2 a
- 39:14cup every every half hour or something.
- 39:18And it was very successful for detoxification and for
- 39:21nourishing, very successful with kidney problems.
- 39:25Help people lose weight. It treated.
- 39:28Cancer with the raw milk cure. So yes, you can drink an.
- 39:33Exclusive milk diet. I think another benefit of
- 39:39pointing out the benefits of raw milk and knowing that the shops
- 39:45don't want to to stock it is that it kind of encourages you
- 39:49to support local. You know, go and find a farmer
- 39:52yes. I mean there's a subliminal
- 39:56positive net benefit there because the farmer will be much
- 39:59happier with you coming direct to him.
- 40:02Yes, yes, but if you. Can't you know, like, let's just
- 40:07say California, My daughter lives in California.
- 40:11You can go to a shop, a food store, and buy raw milk in
- 40:15California. They don't all really.
- 40:18Wow. And there are.
- 40:20About 13 or. 14 states in America where you can buy raw
- 40:23milk in the store so. It's all.
- 40:26It's all over the. Map about what's possible then
- 40:30for ours, the pet milk, they have to either come to our on
- 40:34farm store or we can sell it at farmers markets.
- 40:38But there's a weird kind. Of subliminal propaganda going
- 40:42on here. Because if they say no, no, it's
- 40:44fine, you can buy raw milk for your animals.
- 40:47Yeah. What are they saying?
- 40:48What are they? What are they actually saying?
- 40:49They're saying, well, we don't care.
- 40:50Safe and healthy for animals. Yes.
- 40:54Yeah, well. The implication?
- 40:55Is that? The animals have a stronger
- 40:58immune system or something. Yeah, that's the implication.
- 41:03It's just ridiculous if you. Think about it for more than 10
- 41:05seconds. Oh yeah, the whole thing is.
- 41:08Ridiculous. But there it's been the, well,
- 41:12the subject of intense propaganda for so long that most
- 41:17people just accept this that raw milk is dangerous without, you
- 41:21know, without really thinking about it.
- 41:25OK, so the moral. Of the story Sally is what?
- 41:31Don't believe the government, especially when it comes to
- 41:34food. It's not just the raw milk, but
- 41:37you know, they've been on this relentless campaign against
- 41:39butter, against animal fats, against lard, against tallow for
- 41:45over 100 years. And this is basically destroying
- 41:50our children, destroying everybody really, because you
- 41:53absolutely need these animal fats.
- 41:55And especially for growing children, you, you need them for
- 41:58normal growth. I mean, butter is the fat in all
- 42:01mammalian milk for the growth and development of mammals.
- 42:04And we're mammals, and the idea that children shouldn't have
- 42:08butter and animal fat is. Very.
- 42:12Destructive. It's why we're seeing such high
- 42:14rates of infertility. It's why we're seeing children
- 42:19grow up and not be and be confused about what sex they are
- 42:23because they haven't been able to make the proper hormones,
- 42:26because they haven't gotten the nutrients that you get in animal
- 42:29fats. It's been a disaster.
- 42:34It's. It's been a complete disaster
- 42:37and thank goodness there are people trying to turn this
- 42:41around. You know, in the last few
- 42:43months, butter consumption has really gone up in America
- 42:46because of Bobby and, and the work of many others.
- 42:51Just trying to get it into people's heads, you know, and
- 42:54also, I mean, I've found. That cooking in butter and pig
- 42:57fat is so much tastier. Yeah, yeah.
- 43:03So I I don't use we. Don't use.
- 43:04We don't use. Any seed oils at all?
- 43:07Yeah, no. And then neither do.
- 43:08We we just use olive oil and that's a fruit oil.
- 43:11So coconut oil, palm oil and olive oil, those are fruit oils
- 43:17and they're much more stable than seed oils.
- 43:20And the seed oils were not in the human diet before 1890 when
- 43:24they developed the stainless steel roller press.
- 43:29So they're completely new to the diet and they they create a real
- 43:35imbalance of the types of fats on the cellular level and they
- 43:38don't provide the nutrients that the body is expecting to get
- 43:42from the animal fats. I'll give you an example.
- 43:46A little boy loves sausage, so we'll easily give him a sausage
- 43:52in the morning that's all chopped up scrambled eggs.
- 43:56And And even. Look, we don't, we can't really
- 44:00buy raw milk. It's very difficult to find
- 44:03here. But he does get full fat cow's
- 44:06milk and he is so healthy. Yeah.
- 44:12Yeah. I mean.
- 44:13I have a grandson who's 14 months raised on raw milk and
- 44:19he's just amazing meeting all his milestones.
- 44:22Never been sick. Perfectly normal in every way.
- 44:27What? What greater gift can you?
- 44:29Give your children and and to give you the your child that
- 44:31gift you need to think things through and if.
- 44:37Do your own research on this. Subject you go to realmilk.com,
- 44:41our website, and we have lots of articles there, but you have to
- 44:45learn not to believe everything you hear.
- 44:49I was changed. In terms of my dietary
- 44:54trajectory, oh, I don't know. Two in the early, early 2000s by
- 45:01a gentleman by the name of Gary Taubes.
- 45:03Do you know? Oh, Gary.
- 45:04Yeah. Yeah, you.
- 45:06Know we had him to give a little talk and we all went to a
- 45:10restaurant afterwards and nobody ate any potatoes.
- 45:17And again. Gary, listen, meat.
- 45:22Meat is a very healthy food, but I just think you can overdo it
- 45:26and if you don't get enough fat with the meat you're going to
- 45:28get in trouble. And also I.
- 45:31Tell you, you have a little boy, you try raising your boy on an
- 45:35all meat diet. They're going to go out and
- 45:37cheat. They need they need some carbs.
- 45:42You need to make dessert for them every now and then.
- 45:44You know that the sweet things need to come from the parents.
- 45:48Can anybody? Honestly, in their heart of
- 45:50hearts tell me that there is anything better than bacon and
- 45:54eggs in the morning. Exactly.
- 45:56Exactly what a wonderful breakfast and bacon is a healthy
- 45:59food. It's full of B vitamins and the
- 46:02fat and bacon is the most big fat is the most similar to human
- 46:11fat with any type of fat. And it's but it's just so.
- 46:16Delicious if you do it in butter or lard.
- 46:20And remember how they did, how they demonised it in the 80s.
- 46:24Oh yeah, yeah. Because they wanted to sell
- 46:27vegetable oils, everything was low fat.
- 46:31Yeah. But you really weren't eating.
- 46:34Low fat? Not if you were eating ice cream
- 46:38and you were putting spreads on your toast.
- 46:43You know, but ice cream. Is full of sugar Well.
- 46:47Of course, horrible. That's not the right way to get
- 46:50your animal fats. You want to get your animal
- 46:52fats, you know, in meat and put on vegetables, maybe put on
- 46:58potatoes, bacon with your scrambled eggs.
- 47:01Then you won't crave sugar. But generally keep those.
- 47:06Carbohydrates low, yeah. 20% of calories I think would be a
- 47:12maximum. Because I mean also if.
- 47:17You are fully carnival. Nobody will ever invite you
- 47:20around to the house because I know you won't eat anything.
- 47:23Yeah, I know. I know it's a very boring diet.
- 47:26Yeah. It's not the way we were meant
- 47:28to eat. We're really meant to enjoy our
- 47:30food and and not. Stray too.
- 47:34Far between extremes, you. Know you know when Jesus?
- 47:39Cured people, he said. Go and sin no more.
- 47:43And that word sin is doesn't mean that you've done something
- 47:46horrible. The word is harmatria, which
- 47:49means it's an archery term which means to miss the mark, to not
- 47:53be right in the centre. And I think people are missing
- 47:57the mark. They're either way to carnivore
- 48:00or plant based or junk food. None of that is where we need to
- 48:06be. We need to be in the centre,
- 48:08centre ourselves on good wholesome food with plenty of
- 48:11fat, home cooked and delicious. Did you ever?
- 48:17Read the China study I've. Written quite a bit about the
- 48:21China study so. You know, I'm probably.
- 48:27One of the few people in the world who's actually looked at
- 48:30the printed version of the China study.
- 48:32Because it was printed on very large format, like 12 by 18.
- 48:37You can't copy it in a copier and it's in libraries.
- 48:42This is the data that they collected and it's never been
- 48:45posted online and so I never. This data is not posted online,
- 48:52so you can't work with it and 1st.
- 48:56Of all, it was a. Terrible study with lots of
- 48:59variables. It was done in very poor
- 49:04districts. It wasn't really the way most
- 49:06Chinese eat, but Mary Anning and I actually analysed this data
- 49:13and I wrote an article about it called the China study or
- 49:16Chinese Diet. They really didn't find much of
- 49:20it. Just give you an example.
- 49:23The highest egg consumption was in Singapore and now that was
- 49:27also the place with the highest rate of tuberculosis.
- 49:31So old, what's his name? Author says well, egg
- 49:36consumption was associated with tuberculosis, but it's
- 49:40meaningless association. They eat more eggs in Singapore
- 49:43because they're wealthier and they have more Western influence
- 49:47and they have higher rates of TB because it's a very polluted
- 49:51industrial city. There's no correlation between
- 49:54eating eggs and getting TB. I'm.
- 49:58Trying to think of his name. The author.
- 50:01Yeah. Yeah.
- 50:02Colin Campbell. Colin Campbell there.
- 50:04There we go. Yeah.
- 50:06But what I don't understand. I've debated him.
- 50:09Oh, really? Yeah, on, you know, on a.
- 50:11Podcast. What I don't understand though.
- 50:15Is. I mean, I've been to China and
- 50:18also Hong Kong and they eat a lot of rice.
- 50:22Eat a lot of rice, but Hong. Kong is the highest meat eaters
- 50:25in the world. The highest meat diet in the
- 50:27world is in Hong Kong. They.
- 50:29Cook in. Duck fat and pork fat.
- 50:32At least they used. To.
- 50:34They're pushing the vegetable oils now.
- 50:38It's a diet that had lots of meat in it.
- 50:43But also I mean I. Guess you could argue their rice
- 50:46is less processed than western rice.
- 50:48No, they put TALF. Not.
- 50:51Really. They.
- 50:52Put talf talf and powder Talf and my colleague Mary Annie
- 50:57thought this was why there was such high rates of stomach
- 50:59cancer in China. India also, I believe.
- 51:04Lots of rice, yeah. And stomach cancer, I think.
- 51:07Also the highest rates of diabetes I believe now in India,
- 51:10I mean. They don't do this today, but in
- 51:12the old days the rice, they, they mix the rice with the
- 51:16lentils and they fermented it, you know, soaked it in water at
- 51:22least overnight. And then they grounded up and
- 51:25they made their idlier doses and a little pancakes with this
- 51:30combination of rice and lentils, but it was fermented.
- 51:37So what is? Causing the obesity crisis.
- 51:41Just too much sugar. And too many carbs and low
- 51:46thyroid function and thyroid needs vitamin A and people
- 51:50aren't getting enough vitamin A the.
- 51:54Addictive Substances. That they're putting in the
- 51:57foods MSG, MSG. Destroys the hypothalamus.
- 52:08And the hypothalamus is the gland that submits that emits
- 52:14appetite suppressing hormones. There haven't there was a very
- 52:19interesting study they did in China on MSG and they this was
- 52:24rural Chinese families. They weren't eating junk food
- 52:27and some families put a lot of MSG in their food and others
- 52:32didn't. You know, you can buy MSG in in
- 52:34little bottles in China. And the families that use a lot
- 52:37of MSG were definitely heavier. It's a very strong correlation.
- 52:44Would you say fats? More important than?
- 52:45Protein. Yeah, absolutely.
- 52:47I. Absolutely would.
- 52:48So the way we look at it, the diet is no more than 20% of
- 52:53calories as protein and even less when you get older.
- 52:59But for growing children, yes, and athletes, but no more than
- 53:0120% carbs, about 20 to maybe 40% if you're an athlete or growing
- 53:09child. And then the rest fat.
- 53:11So this is a diet that's going to be 60 to 70% calories as fat.
- 53:18Now this is calories. This is not by weight because
- 53:21that's much more caloric I drink.
- 53:25Ground coffee with cream? What about cream, by the way?
- 53:29We haven't spoken about that. Cream is a wonderful.
- 53:32Food. We we make cream on our farm and
- 53:35real cream is hard to get, but yeah, it's wonderful food.
- 53:39It's very rich. Yeah, very rich.
- 53:42It'll offset the bad effects of the coffee.
- 53:46Oh, you're not a coffee fan? No, I do enjoy.
- 53:51My my ground coffee early in the morning when the sun's coming
- 53:55up, though. Well, I'm sure you do.
- 53:56I'm sure you do. But really, your body should be
- 53:59able to wake up and get going without coffee.
- 54:03Just a glass of glass of raw. Milk.
- 54:06I was a coffee. Drinker Yeah, I drink a glass of
- 54:08raw milk in the morning or or a couple of a mug of broth,
- 54:12chicken broth. But I was a very sick woman in
- 54:16about my mid about my 30s and I went to this holistic Dr and he
- 54:23had me do a foods food log. Of everything I ate.
- 54:28And he looked at it and he said, you know you will never be well
- 54:33if you don't stop drinking coffee.
- 54:38And. So that was a challenge for me
- 54:41and it's the hardest thing I ever did in my life.
- 54:43It took me about a month of headaches but once.
- 54:47I got over. That my health just blossomed,
- 54:50all my rashes went away, my fatigue went away, my sometimes
- 54:57lack of emotional balance that just settled right down.
- 55:02It was the best thing I ever did.
- 55:04But I mean, what is it? Then about the coffee, is it the
- 55:07caffeine? Because then what about decaf?
- 55:10Oh, you could probably. Decaf, all of this, a little bit
- 55:13of caffeine in decaf, but to see what the caffeine does is it
- 55:16it's like a hammer to your adrenal glands and your adrenal
- 55:19glands start pouring out adrenaline and cortisol and that
- 55:26keeps you in a state of fight or flights.
- 55:29And we were not designed to be in fight or flight all the time.
- 55:32You need the rest and digest hormones and eventually your
- 55:37adrenal glands get tired. It's called adrenal fatigue and
- 55:41it gets harder and harder, first of all to get into fight and
- 55:43flight or or to come back down to rest and digest.
- 55:48And I read something very interesting recently.
- 55:51If your body can't produce enough cortisol, the adrenal
- 55:55glands are worn out. You know what it does?
- 55:57It makes cortisol out of testosterone, so it lowers your.
- 56:02Yes, it lowers. Your Oh no, that's not good.
- 56:04Yeah, yeah. I also find that.
- 56:09And it's difficult to obviously pinpoint this, but I'm fairly
- 56:13convinced that coffee gives me heartburn.
- 56:17Yes, it's. Possible.
- 56:19Yeah. Now the heartburn is from not
- 56:22having enough stomach acid so I don't.
- 56:24Know what the caffeine is? Doing.
- 56:26But yeah, you need to. So that's interesting.
- 56:31Eat more salt and. By the way, high meat diet you
- 56:34do need more salt. You're you're, you're.
- 56:40Heartburn. Is because you.
- 56:41Don't have enough stomach acid and the stomach acid is what
- 56:44tells that valve to close so the stomach acid doesn't come up
- 56:52your oesophagus. But why do doctors?
- 56:55Say you've got too much stomach acid yeah, they're they're wrong
- 56:59They. Just don't understand it.
- 57:00It's not enough stomach acid. But then how does an antacid?
- 57:04Work well it. Lowers your stomach acid Most
- 57:10people still get heartburn and because this has to take.
- 57:13Them all the time, those those drugs.
- 57:16Have terrible side effects. For one thing, they have a lot
- 57:18of aluminium in them. Yeah, well, I, I took for about
- 57:2315 years until I stopped in 20/20/20, I think.
- 57:28Proton pump inhibitors. Oh yeah, they're terrible.
- 57:31Drugs, omeprazole I think. Was was the main 1?
- 57:35So what? You can do to eat.
- 57:36More salt because you make. Hydrochloric.
- 57:39Acid out of the chlorine in salt, but you can also take a
- 57:43bathing hydrochloric acid supplement.
- 57:45I've got a couple of my children on those.
- 57:48I have three out of four of my children are, you know, driven,
- 57:55ambitious, and I have one child who's very relaxed.
- 57:59They, he doesn't need any of those things.
- 58:03Hydrochloric acid. I I've seen, I've seen those
- 58:06pills. You can take those.
- 58:07I don't like the idea of taking a pill though.
- 58:10Well, I mean, it's better than. Protein pump inhibitors, yeah,
- 58:13for sure. But I.
- 58:14Mean just normal salt, putting more salt in your food.
- 58:17Yes, that's where I'd. Start and then if that doesn't
- 58:20work, then I would take a hydrochloric acid.
- 58:23Eat butter. That's what I always say.
- 58:25Eat butter. It's the healthiest fat on the
- 58:27planet. It's got so many good things in
- 58:29it. You know, one of the things in
- 58:30butter is something called a rachidonic acid.
- 58:34And what do we do with arachidonic acid?
- 58:36We do a lot of things, but one of the things we do with it is
- 58:38we make our own endogenous cannabinoids.
- 58:42Our bodies are designed to have marijuana being produced all the
- 58:47time. We have receptors for this, and
- 58:50this makes us relaxed but motivated.
- 58:54That's what you want. You want to be motivated but not
- 58:56hyper. You want to be relaxed and
- 58:58motivated. And that's what we get from the
- 59:01arachidonic acid in animal fats, especially butter.
- 59:05Butter is also a unique source of something called butyric
- 59:08acid, which is very important for colon health and for
- 59:11digestion. If it's grass fed, butter it.
- 59:14Will have conjugated linoleic acid in it, which is the
- 59:17strongest anti cancerous substance it's ever been tested.
- 59:20It really protects you against cancer.
- 59:25So there's just as many wonderful things in butter that
- 59:28we can't get elsewhere. And to me that that if you don't
- 59:32do anything else, eat butter. Butter is better.
- 59:37Butter is better. Before.
- 59:40Any accusations come your way, you're not receiving any kind of
- 59:44funding from the meat industry and the Weston A Price.
- 59:47Foundation doesn't receive that kind of funding and I don't get
- 59:50any salary for running the Weston A Price Foundation.
- 59:53I would vector your listeners to our website, westonaprice.org
- 59:59and hopefully they'll become members and receive our
- 1:00:01quarterly journal, which is very popular, become a part of our
- 1:00:05family. We also have realmilk.com for
- 1:00:10finding raw milk. I'm not sure there's any
- 1:00:13listings for South Africa, I'm afraid, but I know that there
- 1:00:17are raw milk farms in Africa, maybe not in South Africa.
- 1:00:20No, no, we've got them. We've got them, yeah.
- 1:00:23We've got them that you just. Have to, you have to fight.
- 1:00:26You have to fight for the animal label.
- 1:00:27That's that's how it works, Yeah.
- 1:00:29Well then. That's fine.
- 1:00:31But yeah, and my website, isnourishingtraditions.com, I
- 1:00:37haven't posted it in a long time because I'm working on a book,
- 1:00:40but there's a lot of interesting stuff there.
- 1:00:43I. Will also say that Western Price
- 1:00:45website changed my views on polio back in the day.
- 1:00:48Interesting, interesting. Yes, polio was caused by lead
- 1:00:55arsenate and DDT. Yeah, pesticides.
- 1:00:58They're both nerve toxins. Yeah, there was no virus.
- 1:01:03There's no virus. And the vaccine didn't change
- 1:01:05anything. What changed?
- 1:01:06It was they were banned. And then so they started selling
- 1:01:10these pesticides in places like India where they kept having
- 1:01:13polio, you know? And it's it's that.
- 1:01:17Article that I found on the Western Price website that led
- 1:01:21me to a book called The Moth in the Iron Lung.
- 1:01:24Yes, yes. By Forrest Moretti, and he's
- 1:01:27just written a book on raw milk, by the way.
- 1:01:31Ah OK, I must contact him. Yeah.
- 1:01:34Yeah, he'd be a good one to interview.
- 1:01:36Yeah, I have spoken to him. Before he's very quiet though.
- 1:01:40Yes, he's. He's a.
- 1:01:43He's a he's. Like a he's a hermit.
- 1:01:46OK. Sally Morrell, it's been an
- 1:01:49absolute pleasure. Thank you for joining me in the
- 1:01:51trenches for having me, Jeremy.
