I'm a serious milk drinker and have been since I was little. I've also been sickly since I was small with chronic strep throat and tonsillitis until I changed my diet. 7 years actually now since I've had a sore throat. Woo hoo!

Raw dairy was a huge part of this change for me, it also stopped the little white bumps I used to have on my forehead which a dermatologist told me was from too much pasteurized dairy.

I found this article which is pretty informative about the benefits of "raw milk", and some resources. My favorite is Organic Pastures in California but there are great farms all over, you just have to seek them out!

What I find interesting is somewhere around 100,000 people die each year in this country because of wrong use of pharmaceutical drugs or hospital negligence and we hardly hear a peep from the media about any of it, yet if one person gets sick "possibly" from raw milk, suddenly there are laws being drawn to ban the raw dairy's. The biggest concern people seem to have is "will it make me sick"? Well, from personal experience, my family and I have been drinking it now for 7 years- I drank it just about every day of my pregnancy and now give it to my 17 month old as well and none of us have ever had any issues.

Of course, do your research, find a good, clean and responsible farm and only do what you are comfortable with.

Hi friend,

We'd like to share some info we found very interesting- hope it's useful for you too!

The FDA regulates the word "sanitizer" as well as statements about how many germs a product kills. A product can ONLY be called a hand "sanitizer" if it contains alcohol or a number of synthetic antibacterials like Triclosan or benzalkonium chloride (BTW, Thyme oil is not one of the FDA approved options).

So, if you want an alcohol free product, READ your ingredient list on the bottle. If you happen to have a hand sanitizer with only a "patented formula" that does not list what's in that formula.... hmmm, I'd suggest looking up the patent and seeing what's in there. Either it's got to have alcohol or they are mislabeling.

What does momknowseverything.com think?

As mothers, we all know how important it is for our kids to have clean hands. Luckily I have found the perfect solution to this dilemma, Clean George Hand Purifier.

The bottles are small enough to fit into your purse and with a lock feature on the caps you are sure that they won't leak in your bag. They dry very quickly after applied so you don't have wet sticky hands and they leave you hands feeling soft and smooth.

We've just discovered Clean George- We love it! Each has a distinct fragrance, and since tea tree oil is one of the main ingredients, one should know whether they like this scent before purchasing a bottle. But believe me, tea tree oil smells a lot better than alcohol.

Safemama is giving away 2 bottles of Clean George! You just have to answer a question from this site, but we're not going to give it away right here!
