Raw milk

So to begin, I would like to make an announcement! I am a raw milk advocate. I began drinking raw milk about two months ago and am so glad I started. I have A LOT better digestion because of it. I am lucky and have local goat farmers around me that provide the raw milk. Although, I do have to drive up to an hour and a half away to fetch it (sometimes), I am still able to get my hands on it! Yay!

So what does this have to do with Crohn's?

Well, we are an over sanitized civilization. We are so scared of bacteria that we literally scrub our bodies free of it all the time. I am starting to feel this is a major flaw. Also I THINK...Key word (think)..This is why Crohn's has become so prevalent in today's society. We don't eat enough good bacteria. Our intestines are packed with bacteria and we need a healthy balance of it. In today's time, we pasteurize everything and our intestines are suffering. Also, our diet is crap. We live off of carbs, sugar, and carbs. It's quite insane actually. Once I slowed down and started looking into the things I ate, I realized...Hey...All I eat is crap. Nothing is living...Nothing that I eat has healthy bacteria, etc.  So started a change. Now I drink raw milk, follow the specific carb diet and eat lots of Manuka honey (this stuff I swear is nothing short of amazing). I will blog about my SCD and post pictures of great foods to eat. Sometimes I slip up and eat corn chips or corn tortillas, mainly because I have to reward myself...I know right...Rewarding yourself with a corn tortilla...woo woo. Lol! But hey...I can't complain, I'm keeping myself off medications!
