Why Cow Milk is a Serious Health Risk for Humans & How UK Adverts That Show the Truth Will Not Be Banned!

in #news7 years ago

The suffering of cows is a topic that few care to give attention to - and yet it affects us all in ways that we need to pay attention to now.

Cow milk is for baby cows, not humans!


As a child, I was given milk in school and I still recall my repulsion at it's taste - it was clearly not for me and yet I was essentially forced to drink it on the basis that it would 'make me fit and strong'. The reality though is very different indeed. Cow milk, unsurprisingly, is for baby cows and is formulated to take a small cow and make it put on weight fast, to turn it into a big cow! The mixture is biologically incompatible with the needs of a human body, including human children.

you ungrateful cow

In order to maintain a constant milk production, the cows are typically artificially inseminated by farmers to keep them pregnant and producing calves and thus also milk. If the calves are male they are killed immediately and if they are female then there is a high chance they will be raised to continue on from their mother once their mother can't continue to stand in cramped conditions, being vampired by greedy humans who do not understand life or love. This is very much like the scenes of enslavement from the movie series 'The Matrix', except that it is real and called 'normal' by many people who are unconscious of the reality of which they are a part.

The dairy industry is explained here in 5 minutes:

Health effects of Cow milk on Humans


Typically, the acid wastes that result in the human body after drinking milk (or consuming dairy based products) are such a problem for the body that it must correct the PH levels as a matter of urgency by using processes of alkalysation. In simple terms, dairy milk puts our body out of balance and our body has to work hard to correct the imbalance. Sometimes the body doesn't have sufficient resources available to neutralise the acid in may be forced to resort to leach calcium from bone reserves since calcium is highly alkaline (the opposite of acid). If dairy milk is consumed over a life time then the results can be weakened bones and osteoporosis in old age. There are several other very significant health risks associated with the consumption of cow milk, ranging from cancer through to serious digestive and thus immune system dysfunction. Since cows are often filled up with antibiotics by farmers who view them not as life, but as 'products' and 'machines', the result is that the humans consume large amounts of anti-biotics too, which has a knock on effect on the gut flora of the humans and that in turn can greatly inhibit the capacity of the human's immune system in fighting off disease organisms.

If all this wasn't enough, there is also a risk of heart disease from dairy products and potentially other complications from pus and other contaminants typically found in factory farmed cow milk.

Thankfully, many great plant based milks are available that pose none of the risk of dairy milk and which are genuinely very good for human health. I shared a recipe for a coconut and almond based power milk recently that can easily be used to replace dairy milk and it will not take long before users of it will look back at their time drinking cow milk and wonder how they could have ever drunk something so out of tune with their body's real needs.

For medical professional insight into this issue you can review the following video - Food that Kills by Dr. Michael Klaper:

And another video here from Dr. Greger explains some of why milk is a risk for cancer in humans:

Advertising Standards Authority in Britain Upholds Vegan Advert's Claims That Dairy Industry is Inhumane


For too long, the dairy industry has used it's money and political power to manipulate the minds of humans into thinking that it is 'normal' to exploit animals and steal their milk - when it clearly is not the intended way for humans to live on Earth. Any exploitation is totally out of balance and unethical.

Today though, there was a spark of change after an advertising campaign by vegan activists which makes clear that cows are being exploited was challenged by the dairy industry for being 'misleading', but the challenge was rejected by the Advertising Standards Agency. The result is that a precedent is set which makes clear that regardless of the rhetoric of the dairy industry and it's supporters, their activity is NOT humane, ethical, caring or even justifiable to anyone with a heart and mind to think/feel.

Happy Cows!


The following moving video shows the moment that a herd of dairy cows was rescued from slaughter in Germany once they became too old to be 'productive' in the farm any more. The farmer intended to have them killed, but instead they were rescued and set free - to see them bounce around the fields in pure joy is tear jerking for even the more rigid hearts among us!

One of my teachers used to say "Breast milk for baby humans, cows milks for calves, Meat is for carnivores. Humans are omnivores and while you can (eat meat or drink meat) it doesn't mean you should. Feel for yourself and let your body tell you what is right to consume"

Dairy just plain feels bad in the gut to me. it causes physical pain.
that same teacher had a saying to go along with it "Discomfort on consumption is a signpost to a dysfunction, if its not agreeing with you don't consume it"

Yes, I agree with some complex caveats ;)
I experienced a low level discomfort for most of my life that ended when I stopped eating dairy products - I feel part of the problem is that children are raised consuming them and don't have a reference point to compare to where they were clean.

Noted on the caveats .
there are enough exceptions to the discomfort rule, Chilli being one of them. Agreed on the point regarding Children.

Great post! The China Study is the largest study every conducted that shows how detrimental dairy is for Health.

We are the only mammals that continue to drink milk past infancy and the only ones who drink the milk of another animal. You do not see either of these behaviours in nature, and people are so conditioned into thinking they need dairy to be healthy- what about all of the people in the parts of the world where they don't have dairy cows?? or import dairy, they aren't riddled with arthritis, infact as you know dairy consumption leaches calcium and minerals from the teeth and bones, not the other way around. There is a huge scam being fed to us all in the name of money which causes immense animal suffering and disease in humans. Glad to see someone posting this content on here!

Yes, You are welcome! There is a fundamental heartlessness that is underlying the dysfunction, overpowering and conflicts on Earth - which I am engaged in healing, balancing and evolving.
I will be posting again soon in my reincarnation series here to show how animals are ultimately of the same spiritual essence as we are, just with different forms. <3

I agree, we are torturing so many animals for our gain. Be wary of milk alternatives; many are sprayed with nasty toxins, especially nuts, and avoid soya unless you can prove it's GM free soya.

Yes, part of respecting life is respecting our own cells too! I make my own milk from organic almonds, but even then I can't guarantee that the coconut water I also use is clean. We just have to do the best we can and that includes doing something towards producing our own food and educating others as to the problems involved with toxic crap. <3

yes, yes, yes and yes!

it's only after you stop drinking or consuming dairy for a few months that you realise how bad it tastes! Not to mention the health issues

Thanks ura-soul

You are welcome!

Es muy importante tomar conciencia, de estas informaciones analizarlas ya que existen diferentes industrias en el mundo que acosta de enfermarnos general millones de dolares y como benefician a un grupo grande entre ellos a gobiernos no es facil que acepten el daño que causan, pero nosotros podemos parar el consumo de productos dañinos.

Thankyou, yes!

Thanks for spreading the education on this topic. So many people are oblivious to the realities of dairy.

Subscribed to you, cheers

You are welcome - I'm just doing what I can to help. I followed you back. :)

Ignorence has no defence. You kill yourself unknowing. Thanks for the researched information.

Upvoted 🌸💖🌸

Thanks! <3

Oohh Mmyy God.... What the hell i've just read...?? I need a Research !!

Sure, go ahead - there are leading doctors speaking in the videos above.

The evidence of dairy being very unhealthy and cruel is growing by the day.

https://nutritionfacts.org/ is a great place to start for the latest scientific research into plant-based wholefood diets.

Thanks, yes - The 3rd video in this post is from them.

not your mom, not your milk

Another incredibly informative post! Keep spreading the truth, I love that video by Erin Janus, have shared it with many people, dairy sure is scary.

So happy to see that more and more people are seeing the ugly side of animal agriculture and changing their habits, while encouraging others to do the same. Love it <3

Thanks for your support, yes I will - it's what i 'do' ;)
Thanks for being real!

Totally agree!

People just don't know how tasty almond, soy, coconut and hazelnut milk are... Besides the fact that cow milk is junk and it makes you feel like shit after drinking it, in the past, it gave me a quick ticket to toilet. After finding how convenient is the vegan lifestyle I drank soy milk with plums 😂

hehe - yes - soy milk and plums is a new one on me ;)
My only comment is that it is my understanding is that ALL Soy is now GMO - so almond and coconut are probably a better option.

very good post i like it because i want to live a healthy lifestyle

I love me a cold glass of milk. I also need me some delicious red meat on a regular basis. I enjoy them both . Nothing better than a good steak and bake potatoe with a salad that has milk based dressing. Yum!

Agree, man is an exploitative creature by nature. He does the same with honey bees, and I find that rather annoying. if one has to take the honey, use it sparingly and in the right manner as it is of great medicinal value. Also learn to give back,by planting flowers that are rich in nectar. In India, people get up at the crack of dawn and set about stripping plants in the vicinity of their homes, of all their flowers. They never bother to leave even a few for butterflies, bees and tiny nectar loving birds.

The problem is not one that is inherent to humans, the problem is heartlessness and the resulting imbalance. It is possible to cultivate and give birth to new heart within us and heal, balance and evolve. :)

But cheese is made from milk.
How could something so beautiful be so bad.

I am eating soft vegan cheese here - it is 98% impossible to differentiate from dairy cheese. ;)
Some of them are nasty, some are nice - much the same as dairy cheeses.
