Another full-fat dairy benefit. One you may not know about is conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA. A conjugated fatty acid is a cis- and trans- double bond right next to each other, which has interesting chemical effects. CLA is a weight-loss nutrient--I have used it myself for that purpose successfully. CLA can be found in safflower oil, but its main source is dairy fat. When school lunches were prohibited from using real (full-fat) milk, obesity in children skyrocketed.

I want to see a study on what happens when fat kids are given real whole milk, preferably from pastured A2 cows with high butterfat content. Not just their weight--their asthma, heart conditions, etc. as well.

The decades over the last century using Marketing Science to convince society to abandon traditional foods grown locally to provide ever tightening control over food sources. The public indoctrinated to be convinced it is faster, cheaper, quicker to produce foods through Chemicals, Synthetics so as not to be touched by human hands. Lot's of "cheap" dollar wise, but big returns for profits for fewer and fewer individuals. Tech to purify, then other chemicals, substances to mask the void, or severely missing minerals, compounds such as C15.

Yet is some ways exposing the Old World technique's of plowing, holding livestock in permanent stockades degrades soil life and in turn the foods they produce. Those who have pursued the search for what builds health, what prevents Dis-Ease have found, realized, perhaps Remembered how to walk with Creation to produce our needs in ways Healing and Not Stealing from Nature. Ways if practiced enough heal the soil along with the Microbe Lifeforms, waters and air to in turn Heal Us in ways to Heal and Do Not Steal.

So many things similar in nature like C15, some vilified, now realized as actually Health Builders, Restorers, Dis-Ease Preventers. Foods briming with Microbe Life, not sterilized for Germaphobes that in the Gut process, interact with to convert to fill the possibility of reaching our full Potentials.
