I totally agree with naturallyme on this. Food these days is so much more unhealthy than the same exact foods years and years ago. It’s just that now, everything is covered with pesticides, injected with hormones and other chemicals, and that triggers internal reactions. My kids can drink raw milk without any problems, but give them a straight glass of storebought milk, and they’re sick for a week. There weren’t really any dairy allergies in my grandmother’s time because they drank untouched milk. The cows weren’t pumped full of hormones/steroids and the milk was not pasteurized. They drank it and cooked with it without incident.
Same with eggs. Salmonella is so much more common these days because store bought eggs come from chickens who are sickly from being penned up. My kids and I drink protein shakes with raw eggs in them, and have been doing so for quite some time. Not one single problem from these eggs. They come fresh from the farm, and the chickens are healthy, free range, cage free chickens.
Now, I’m no purist when it comes to food, and I do buy some prepackaged products for the simplicity and time factor, but all of my milk, cheese and eggs come straight from the farm, fresh as nature intended. And my kids are so much healthier now because of it. No allergies.
