Need dairy/creamy substitute & dairy fats question

[animalfarm]

You are in a position to try raw milk since your allergies aren't life threatening. Protein is damaged when pasteurized. Also, most store milk is from Holsteins which have the wrong kind of enzymes and creates stomach issues. Milk from Jerseys has the digestible kind of enzymes. Drink raw milk from Jerseys.

If you don't have any problems (will probably improve drastically) then butter, butter milk, yogurt, and cheese can be made from Jersey cream/milk. This makes a whole new problem; where to get Jersey milk because once you try it, you will be amazed. Then you have to start making all those good things yourself because the government says its bad for you and you may have to find a bootlegger depending upon where you are.

My DH cannot drink milk normally, but he puts away 2 quarts of raw jersey milk a day when at home, and all of his stomach problems (cramps, bloody stools, heartburn) disappear. The city boy whines about all the other critters on the place, but he loves those Jerseys.

commercial buttermilk is not buttermilk. Not even close
I would advise reading up on GAPS.

I am officially allergic to many, many items on tests......a lot of those items don't bother me one bit and several things that I tested ok for on the tests are deadly for me.

Yep, the form they use in the tests is not raw. The proteins are very damaged and toxic to everyone....the fortunate ones have reactions. I say the fortunate ones because then you will have far less silent damage that builds up over years of consuming this toxic substance sold as a health food....commercial dairy products.

I can't have the tiniest sip of commercial milk but as you likely know already, I go on and on about my dear, lovely goats and all the wonderful milk and cheese and kefir that they supply me with. We use almost two gallons a day for the two of us. It is very healing. My health went a bit backwards during the first goat pregnancy and dry period here, after having it for a year. The following year, I froze plenty in advance to get me through the next dry period.

Definitely invest in the GAPS diet books.
