Notes:
1. Cow's milk has twice the fat of soy milk and it is all from
animal fats loaded with toxins and more.
2. Casein, 80% of the protein in cow's milk, is a powerful mucus maker.
3. Fiber is a big plus... dairy has none.
4. Vegetarian animals like cows, horses and elephants get all the
calcium they need from green plants. The center molecule, chlorophyll,
has approximately equal measures of calcium and magnesium which makes
most of that calcium usable. Cow's milk had less than 12 percent
of the magnesium necessary to use all that calcium.
5. Cow's milk has over four times the salt content of soy milk.
6. Vitamine B-12 is needed in minuscule amounts. The body can store
many years worth.
7. Heat kills the natural vitamin "D" during pasteurization. The vitamin
"D" added into cow's milk is D-3, from lanolin, pig brains, whatever.
8. Each cup of whole cow's milk has the cholesterol equivalent of 17
slices of bacon. Clogged arteries, anyone? Soymilk has none!
FATS IN SOY: 50% of the fat in soymilk is Omega 6, while 8% is Omega 3.
