Did you know milk is milk?

This is a site that I found with regards to Milk Is Milk. I am putting up here for all to share.

Anyway, in the "I-Medical Sutra" Cow Milk, Human Milk, Soy Milk have it "Yin & Yang" Characteristic too.

There are difference applications of using Milk for Healing. Milk also have the conflicting element.

For example, whenever, I have fever in my childhood day, my mom would use Condense Milk for me to drink, no rice water, no fish, no meat. in the first 3 days of the flu & fever, She may even add ginger into the Milk sometime.

Will keep posted later....

Did you know milk is milk?: "Milk is Milk

Some Milk Labels are Misleading
Some milk labels raise concern for consumers. Other labels actually mislead consumers or prey on their fears, implying that one milk is superior to another because of what it does not contain. The simple truth is that there really is no difference. Milk is Milk.

'No Hormones'
All milk produced by cows contains hormones as part of the normal biology of reproduction and lactation. There is no such thing as hormone-free milk.

'No Pesticides'
There are no pesticides added to any milk or dairy products.

'No Antibiotics'
Antibiotics are never added to milk. All milk is tested to ensure that antibiotics used to treat cows are not present in milk.

All Milk is Produced the Same Way - By Cows
Abundant and high quality milk production results from the daily management of well-fed healthy dairy cows. Some dairy producers may use a variety of technologies, but the milk remains the same nutritious product, providing vitamins, minerals, protein and calcium.

All Milk is Continuously Tested for Purity, Safety and Quality
Milk is tested numerous times before it reaches the dairy case to ensure that it meets or exceeds government standards and requirements for safety, purity and quality. These tests begin at the farm and continue throughout the processing of the milk.

Milk Labels CAN be Confusing
Federal definitions and government standards require certain information on the milk label. This helps consumers make informed choices about the food they buy.

If ingredients are added to the milk, the law requires that they be listed. One example is the addition of active cultures to make 'acidophilus cultured milk.' Another is Vitamin D, a hormone, which has been added for decades to improve the health benefits of milk.

Labels describe processing techniques which somehow change the milk. Labels will always list whether milk has been pasteurized and homogenized. Other processing steps may also be used. One example is removing water to make evaporated milk.

The simple truth is, Milk is Milk.
