Guest guest Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Namaste, My mention of skimmed milk was to mean that one should remove the fat from the cows milk as the fat is not that good though it is said that it has medicinal property in that case ghee has to be taken in medicinal dose quantity only. My wife, who herself was a doctor, used to skim the cream from the milk after boiling the milk.

Each family had just a few cows, all of which were not lactating. Artificial insemination was not used, so the cows could not be impregnated within 2 months of delivery like they are today. Naturally a cow does not get pregnant every year. Nowadays cows are impregnated so frequently that they cannot bear childbirth after 4 – 5 births and so are slaughtered/ left to die at the young age of 6- 7 years. A few go to goshalas. An unexploited cow lives 27 years. Calfs were given their mother’s milk and anything that remained was drunk by humans. Today its the opposite. They did not eat cheese, ice creams, milk sweets like we do today.If Krishna were alive today he would not have to steal milk – there is an abundant supply.Nandita ShahDear Madam,I was talking about taking curd from pure milk like what our ancestors had and that too from cow's milk.Regards,SKB Sponsored LinkMortgage rates near historic lows - Refi $200k loan for only $660/ month - Click now for info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
