Goat’s Milk

The other day while I was on my way to pick my gals up from school, a lady in a car waved to me. I couldn’t see her face clearly and I waved back at her. I thought she was a friend of mine whom I couldn’t recognize. She then drove her car towards me, stopped the car, wound down the window and then passed me a leaflet. She told me that she distributes goat’s milk. I was astounded. That lady looked rich, she drove an expensive MPV and she was aggressive in marketing her goat’s milk, so much so that she would stop someone on the road to pass her a leaflet.

I gave the leaflet a reading and after reading it, I am now quite tempted to let Baby try goat’s milk.

According to the Journal of American Medicine, “Goat’s milk is the most complete food known.” It contains vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, trace elements, enzymes, protein and fatty acids that are utilized by your body with ease. In fact, your body can digest goat’s milk in just 20 minutes. It takes 2-3 hours to digest cow’s milk.

Goat’s milk is a very good source of calcium and the amino acid tryptophan. It is also a good source of protein, phosphorous, riboflavin (vitamin B2) and potassium. Perhaps the greatest benefit of goat’s milk, however, is that some people who cannot tolerate cow’s milk are able to drink goat’s milk without any problems. It is not clear from scientific research studies exactly why some people can better tolerate goat’s milk. Some initial studies suggested that specific proteins known to cause allergic reactions may have been present in cow’s milk in significant quantities yet largely absent in goat’s milk.

Goat’s milk can sometimes even be used as a replacement for cow’s milk-based infant formulas for infants who have difficulties with dairy products. Unfortunately, goat’s milk is lacking in several nutrients that are necessary for growing infants, so parents interested in trying goat’s milk instead of cow’s milk-based formula for their infants should ask their pediatricians or other qualified healthcare practitioners for recipes and ways to add these important and vital nutrients. For older children and adults, however, goat’s milk can be an excellent calcium-rich alternative to cow’s milk as, in addition to calcium, it contains many of the same nutrients found in cow’s milk.

Goat milk is as close to a perfect food as possible in nature. Its chemical structure is amazingly similar to mother’s milk. It is a complete protein containing all the essential amino acids without the heavy fat content and catarrh producing materials of cow’s milk.

The nutrient composition of goat milk is very different than that of cow’s milk. In addition to containing 13% more calcium than cow’s milk, goat milk also has 25% more vitamin B-6, 47% more vitamin A, 134% more potassium and 350% more niacin. Goat milk is also higher in chloride, copper and manganese and contains 27% more of the essential nutrient selenium. Goat milk contains none of the controversial Bovine Growth Hormone (BGH).

Is anyone feeding their toddler with goat milk? How does it taste and does it taste like cow’s milk?  I am gamed to let Baby try it.  Hopefully she likes it, so that I don’t have to painfully spoon-feed her with formula milk powder three times a day again.

    I have never tried goats’ milk. But I recall a friend mentioned to me it’s good for toddlers with asthma or allergies. I think the taste is slightly stronger and their poo can sometimes stink.

    I drank karihome’s goat milk before. It has a much stronger taste than cow’s milk and I hated it. But I am a person who doesn’t like milk. So I mixed the goats milk with hersheys chocolate syrup before forcing it down my throat!

    Charmaine and Shir Lin… thanks for sharing. I think there’s no harm buying a bottle for Baby to try.

    Just be cautious as always introducing diff. food to kids. My friend very quickly found out she is deadly allergic to goat’s milk, no problem with reg. milk. If your kids have been exposed to feta cheese and tolerate well, they should be OK.

  5. oh, i think i’ve seen this lady at the market in my area. She is very well-dressed and was standing around distributing leaflets and selling goat’s milk 😀 i haven’t tried any as I can’t stand the smell 😀

  6. Wuah… goat’s milk makes us rich ? Barb, we should consider this opp. ler.. I dun see any rich lady selling goats milk in my area.. maybe got opp. here. LOL !
    Hey, on a serious note, I think goat’s milk is getting popular. At Giant near my place, they have goat’s milk in a special chiller and I see lotsa ppl grabbing bottles of it.
    Shireen, you try and let us know the taste ?
