There are very few foods in which Vitamin D occurs naturally. The only foods that I'm aware of are certain fish. Hi Lindsay,

And the amount of D in a serving of kale doesn't mean it's necessarily bio-available. Lots of vegetables do not release their vitamins without some kind of animal fat like butter.

And it contains only 7% vitamin A. A serving of kale contains over 300% vitamin A. The trouble with moo milk is that it tastes so good! It's hard to resist sometimes. Fortunately, I'm getting much better at using coconut milk instead. To my knowledge, vitamin D doesn’t occur naturally in milk. And it contains only 7% vitamin A.

It makes sense that when humans discovered they could drink the milk of another species they did it, because in paleo times we tried to get the maximum amount of calories with the least effort. Plus milking cows and consuming the milk as opposed to killing it and eating the meat, means you can get more food per cow. Although, farming grain may also mean easier access to calories, but obv that is not healthy. so is eating raw dairy healthy? I think it's MUCH better than grain because it's an animal food, when fermented it has few carbs, and milk from grassfed animals has all sorts of good stuff like that found in the animal's body fat such as vitamins A and D, CLA, etc. So I consume raw dairy occasionally mostly in the form of raw butter or ghee, as that's where the good stuff is! well drinking the breast milk of another creature is not all that weird.

I've never met anyone before who had their own Mrs. Moo! But wouldn't you agree that it's a bit strange to drink the breast milk of a four-legged creature? Don't you think that's weird? I do... But! I like cheesecake. =) Plain is best. And sometimes I put Moo Milk (half&half specifically) in my Tall Decaf Triple Shot Cafe Americano. But that's only because... The coffee shops in the States don't serve Coconut Milk... Yet. I'm working on that. KEW P.S. It's highly appealing that 90% of Moo Moos in NZ are fed a natural diet of grass. Maybe I should move there. Jacqui: You have your own Mrs. Moo? I’ve never met anyone before who had their own Mrs. Moo!

I guess being on grass they can feel your vibes man... And mostly it is by the noise you make and the way you move. You are not allowed to sell unpasterised milk in NZ, (but most herds are 90%+ grass fed), so the only ones who get it are people like me who drink full cream milk directly from their own Mrs Moo herself.

But I totally agree with Mark, what is typically sold as "cheese" just ain't cheese folks and it still is more a "flavor enhancer" than a caloric staple, and raw goat-milk keifer is a great probiotic :) I am pro dairy when it is raw dairy and un-processed.
