Cheese Yield vs. Milk Solids
Hi, Cheesefans
This is a topic not many lay cheesefanatics know about: the influence of milk solids on the yield of cheese.
The higher the Solids – being Fat, Protein( these are the ones important in cheese making) – the higher the yield of cheese out of a certain volume of milk.
Generally cow’s milk gives a higher yield than goat’s milk.
Thus you need more goat’s milk to make a kilo/pound of cheese than you would with cow’s milk.

Milk Diet
Hi,
Well I saw this (dairy diet) being searched for on the internet. Milk is one of the most complete foods out there and because it is so high in water(about 87%) it is an excellent diet food, but I do not recommend any diet where the variety is so limited. No single food can supply all the nutrients a healthy body needs.
So for sure include milk in your healthy diet, but by no means make it the only food you consume!
Kind regards,

Dairy Allergies
Hi, Milkfans
Now there is a hot topic!
I have very funny (I have been told) views on this, for one thing, I do not consider being pricked with some substance, being an accurate test for food allergies, because everything we eat are digested and not deposited directly into the bloodstream!
Another thing – I come from a wheat farming area and my wife not – every time we go to visit my parents, her allergies fire up 😉
I know what you’re thinking!
Well I am not a doctor, and I won’t give too much advise, but I think if you suffer from any allergies it would be worth your while to check out Vitamin B5, C , A and E supplementation. Well of course all vitamins and minerals are important, but I have found these four to be especially helpful with allergies.
For some more objective advise you can check out the allergies sites linked to my other website: www.dairy-info.org
