My family and I have been blessed for a while now with REAL raw milk, from grass-fed cows! WOOT! We don’t have our family cow…yet… but we do have a connection and are able to get milk from a friend. It is absolutely amazing what you can do once you have the real deal!
I realize how dark the picture is… sorry!
In the half-gallon jar we have buttermilk that has been working, in the quart jar we have sour cream and the pint has kefir.
I didn’t even get pictures of the butter, yogurt, milk or cheese that I have! 🙂
Milk is wonderful!
You might be wondering why I would want to make all these different types of dairy products.
Here are but some kefir health benefits:
# It clears the blood vessels
# gives our bodies a boost in energy
# All natural, relaxing food
# It’s a great way to treat lung infections
# Great for our metabolism so it can be used for weight loss diet
# Very good for curing acne
# Has anti-oxidants and anti-aging properties
# It gives that great shin for your hair
# Replenishes body of good bacteria after antibiotic
# A natural way to regulate blood pressure
# Lowers blood sugar
# Great for treating diarrhea

I make my own buttermilk because it is far superior than what you can buy at the store and it has nothing added that I don’t want. Also, if I can make it at home, then why buy it?
Same goes with sour cream and so on.
I am attempting to cut sugar out of our diet a bit more and I am desperately trying to lose weight.
I am following the regime in this book
I believe in WHOLE foods.
I believe in REAL food.
Not processed, not refined, not enriched.
I don’t believe that just because a fiber bar is only ‘2 points’ that it is something I need to eat!
Right now…
I feel hungry all the time!
I want to eat JUNK, too often.
I feel tired often!
I really, really, really want a change.
I want to feel vibrant and able.
I don’t like not having energy.
As I was reading this book last night, it said that all these feelings attribute to the fact that I am nutrient starved! I have been eating, but not eating the right way.
I hope to change that and to help my children not fall in the same bad habits that I have.
I have a long road and a lot of changing that I need to make.
Have a great day friends!
