Raw Milk in California - we are closer to our goal:

CA Assembly Ag and Health Committees
Pass SB 201 Unanimously


Thanks in large part to your calls for support, The Fresh Milk Act of 2008 [read "raw milk"] achieved resounding success in two Assembly committee hearings last week. Members of both the Agriculture and Health committees commented repeatedly on the volume of calls they received in support of SB 201. Short You Tube coverage is provided.

It is highly rewarding to legislators when the public uses our political system in such a positive and passionate way.

Your Calls and Attendance Were Key to this Win

Let's keep it up!

SB 201 will most likely get some minor refinements before moving on to the Senate Appropriations Committee in a few weeks.

The pros and cons of the raw food diet...

A Primal Dieter (Barbara Ellingson) was interviewed on video last Sunday June 22nd, about successes with the Primal Diet in relation to "serious" health situations. The interviewer was a lady reporter called Gypsy, from the Bay area who has herself in the past written to Aajonus "to thank you for saving my life" (see her blog entry on November 17, 2007). Barbara points out that since she has cancer, it was of interest for Gypsy to see that she is doing well and holding steady, according to objective medical tests such as MRI, blood tests, ultra-sounds, etc.
Alyson Powell was also interviewed. In her career as a hairdresser, she has had to deal with much chemical toxicity. She is doing well on the Primal Diet and did an interesting interview.
Stay tuned to see if either of these interviews air on any TV stations in your area!

Southern California residents interested in health...

should note that there is a current exhibit called Body Worlds 3. It shows inner body workings for those of us who have wondered what does it look like inside our physical bodies. You can get an overview of what this is about by clicking on the link here: http://www.californiasciencecenter.org/Exhibits/Weingart/BodyWorlds_3/BodyWorlds_3.php

The stated idea for this exhibit is that viewers can gain profound insights in to the structure and function of healthy and unhealthy bodies on a comprehensive scales. It is meant to inspire people to take better control of their lives and bodies and of course their own health.

It might be worth while for anyone to see this exhibit.

Raw Milk discussion lead by a California Senator

Raw Milk is under discussion in this footage about "The Fresh Raw Milk Act"...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5FoFoFNeCk&feature=email
Aajonus is sitting to the right of Ron Hull but his talk is not covered in this you tube footage.
He says "I did not speak about the scientific aspects because there were 4 there to do that. I spoke on an empirical basis about getting well [with the raw food diet] and thousands of people who did not get well. Also, I spoke about the issue that bacteria are never pathogenic but that food additives were. No one wants to hear or accept that."
When he receives the latest version of the bill (possibly next Monday) he may comment further.

Raw Milk Is The Only

Healthy Milk; Why Has It Been Outlawed?

by Aajonus Vonderplanitz, Nutritional Scientist/Nutritionist/ Author and Retired Raw Dairy Farmer Carlet Hoff

There is too little known among the general public about the benefits of raw milk, even though raw milk was the foster mother of mankind. Controversial seems to be a week adjective when considering the vehement rhetoric of individuals who lash out against it from miseducation and fear. The bacteria-phobia has no empirical base. There has been no clinical tests studying people drinking raw milk, that contains feared bacteria, to prove or disprove the theory that pathogens finding their way into raw milk can cause ill effects in humans drinking it. Even vegetative nutrients found in raw milk have been falsely blamed for ill effects. The crusade against raw milk has been lethal to the empirical evidence that raw milk and raw milk products are probably the most nutritious food most people can consume.

Pasteurizing milk, which is the process of cooking milk at a minimum 155 degrees F. for at least 15 seconds, gained popularity when farmers didn't have the technology to produce, package and deliver all their raw milk fresh. Pasteurization LENGTHENED the SHELF LIFE of milk. Suddenly, farmers were able to hold and transport their milk instead of dumping it or feeding it to the hogs. Until then the primary focus of milk was that it was a healthful food. With pasteurization, milk became a commodity, an economic issue, that generated Hollywood-like unscientific horror stories about raw milk spreading diseases.

For years health-minded individuals, teachers, professors, politicians and even doctors fought the battle against pasteurization of milk because of the obvious weakening effects it had on humans and animals who were fed pasteurized milk. The destruction of the nutritional properties was evident in the results. Early in the battle, several countries outlawed the feeding of pasteurized milk to infants. Not only does pasteurization destroy the major proportion of vitamins, enzymes and minerals, it creates contaminants, such as transitional lipid oxides and protein toxins. Pasteurized milk cannot maintain the biological antibodies and enzymes present in raw milk, some of which can prevent a large variety of diseases, including cancer.

Have we opened the gates for a Trojan Horse regarding raw milk?

"AB201 as amended on June 16, yesterday, is a disastrous Trojan Horse. Please, do not give it any support, yet. I called Sally Fallon this morning about the Trojan Horse bill and she had Mark McAfee call me. He said that the wording has changed since last night. I told him that I would absolutely oppose it unless major changes were made. He promised to send the changes to me asap."
healthfully,
aajonus

To our blog readers, the following is the UNamended bill for your viewing. Many raw milk supporters have evidently been tricked into supporting this, even though it would have serious repercussions throughout the USA and the world. Please check this blog regularly for the next few days until the changes have been viewed and considered against the big picture i.e. what this means for the USA and the world.
