Lisa / Elizabeth / Candace / All / Pus in milk

[Guest guest]

Good morning.!..A while back , we got to talking about drinking milk on here

, again !. I volunteered to contact Organic Dairy Farms to obtain each farms

pus count ( somatic cell count ). Some of us figured that the Organic Milk

was bound to be different .Horizon's WAS low , if the lady I spoke to read

her numbers right ! I do remember that she hesitated and had to read the

number over to herself . Weird !Here is some data which explains a bit about

it.I warn ya , it is gross ..Mary O

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have some . pus with your cookies? If you down a glass of cow's milk,

you will. It may be white, but researchers say that every cupful contains

somatic cells, i.e., pus.

 

The dairy industry knows that there is a problem with pus in milk.

Accordingly, it has developed a system known as the " somatic cell count " to

measure the amount of pus in milk. The somatic cell count is the standard

used to gauge milk quality. The higher the somatic cell count, the more pus

in the milk.

 

Any milk with a somatic cell count of higher than 200 million per

liter should not enter the human food supply, according to the dairy

industry. Therefore, anyone living in a state where the somatic cell count

is higher than 200 million shouldn't be drinking milk. There's only one

problem-every state but Hawaii is producing milk with pus levels so high

that it shouldn't enter the human food supply! At the bottom of this page,

you can see how high the pus levels in your state's milk are. Even the

national average, at 322 million, is well above the industry's limit.

 

One culprit causing the hundreds of millions of pus cells in every

liter of milk may be " bovine growth hormone, " the Monsanto chemical company'

s growth hormone marketed as Posilac. Posilac is now widely used by dairy

farmers to increase the amount of milk that their already overburdened cows

produce. Because cows are not built to produce this much milk, they are

prone to a painful udder infection called mastitis. When they are milked,

pus and bacteria from the infection flow right along with the milk.

Here is a good link about milk, the somatic cell info is at the

bottom along with the sources for the info.

Blaugh! Since I read there's pus in milk I've only attempted to have it in

cereal and it tasted gross. Either it's all in my head or that just happened

to be a bad batch.

No more milk drinking for this gal.
