But, it carries an addictive molecule that causes many people to over-eat their satiety hormones. This molecule is know as Casomorphins and is put in the milk to addict her baby to milk, thus ensuring drinking enough to grow and gain weight as fast as possible. This same molecule causes many people to crave cheese/yogurt/milk and causes them to eat too much food. Some research shows that Raw Milk causes less craving from the casomorphins... Keep in mind, this affects some more than others (normal distribution curve), but for some folks (including me) cheese is a problem. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0308814620316277 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10942912.2012.712077#d1e158 https://academic.oup.com/nutritionreviews/advance-article/doi/10.1093/nutrit/nuae099/7716583 https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/agricultural-and-biological-sciences/casomorphin https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8345738/ Join our COMMUNITY Support & Knowledge: phdhealth.community Proper Human Diet principles video: https://youtu.be/jwagCofBDj8 Proper Human Diet GUIDEBOOK: https://www.drberry.com/guidebook MINERAL Drops: https://saltt.com/ref/DrB (discount) LIES MY DOCTOR TOLD ME: https://amzn.to/2XvNNZm KICKING ASS AFTER 50 book: https://amzn.to/3LMj1ny COMMON SENSE LABS book: https://amzn.to/45rZ9NM PHD Merch: https://www.drberry.com/shop (T-Shirts, Tanks, Hoodies, etc) Holiday KETO Cookbook: https://bit.ly/ourholidaycookbook Great Keto Recipes: https://cookingketowithfaith.com/ Eat Real MEAT: https://bit.ly/USmeatDiscount (discount = BERRY) Pluck Organ Seasonings code = DRKEN for 25% off https://eatpluck.com Support Our Mission: phdhealth.community LMNT el…","meta_description":"Real, full-fat cheese & other dairy has great macros and is a good source of vitamins/minerals.
