Confined Cows are Likely Sick

The controversial link between drinking cows' milk during infancy and the risk of developing diabetes may have been strengthened by a new study that finds that exposure early in life to cow's milk may increase the lifetime risk of developing diabetes in high risk children.

In children diagnosed at a young age with diabetes, insulin autoantibodies are particularly present and are believed by some researchers to be the primary event in the process leading to type 1 diabetes.
​

Exposure to cows' milk has previously been shown to cause the body to mount an immune response to insulin in some children and may precipitate the development of these autoantibodies.

Children, Mothers and Diet 

Children Face All Kinds of Challenges

One in three children born since 2000 will develop diabetes at some point in their life. Over a third of US children are overweight, which also brings on emotional challenges. What can mothers do for their children? Offer plant based meals to prevent obesity!

Broward County Schools in South Florida let children taste bite size veggie burgers, veggie chili, and beans & rice. Meat free options are now on school menus.

Dr. Benjamin Spock pointed out in his updated Baby and Child Care book that meat, dairy & eggs were not health foods. He changed his own diet and recovered his health and strength. He lived into his 90's.
