Book Description

March 9, 2004
If you knew what we know about milk ... BLEEECHT! All that pasteurization, homogenization and processing is not only cooking all the nutrients right out of your favorite drink. It's also adding toxic levels of vitamin D. This fascinating book tells the whole story about milk. How it once was nature's nearly perfect food. . . how "raw," unprocessed milk can heal and boost your immune system ~ why you can't buy it legally in this country anymore, and what we could do to change that.


Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Dr. Douglass reveals medical truths, and deceptions, often at risk of being labeled heretical. He is consumed by a passion for living a long healthy life, and wants his readers to share that passion. Their health and well-being comes first. He is anti-dogmatic, and unwavering in his dedication to improve the quality of life of his readers.

He has been called "the conscience of modern medicine," a "medical maverick," and has been voted "Doctor of the Year" by the National Health Federation. His medical experiences are far reaching-from battling malaria in Central America - to fighting deadly epidemics at his own health clinic in Africa - to flying with U.S. Navy crews as a flight surgeon - to working for 10 years in emergency medicine in the United States.

This dedicated physician has repeatedly gone far beyond the call of duty in his work to spread the truth about alternative therapies. For a full year, he endured economic and physical hardship to work with physicians at the Pasteur Institute in St. Petersburg, Russia, where advanced research on photoluminescence was being conducted. These learning experiences, not to mention his keen storytelling ability and wit, make Dr. Douglass' newsletters (Daily Dose and Real Health) and all of his books uniquely interesting and fun to read. He shares his no-frills, no-bull approach to health care, often amazing his readers by telling them to ignore many widely-hyped good-health practices (like staying away from red meat, avoiding coffee, and eating like a bird), and start living again by eating REAL food, taking some inexpensive supplements, and doing the pleasurable things that make life livable.

Readers of Dr. Douglass´ books get all this, plus they learn how to burn fat, prevent cancer, boost libido, and so much more. And, Dr. Douglass is not afraid to challenge the latest studies that come out, and share the real story with his readers. He has led a colorful, rebellious, and crusading life! Not many physicians would dare put their professional reputations on the line as many times as this courageous healer has. A vocal opponent of "business-as-usual" medicine, Dr. Douglass has championed patients' rights and physician commitment to wellness throughout his career.

Dr. Douglass comes from a distinguished family of physicians. He is the fourth generation Douglass to practice medicine, and his son is also a physician. Dr. Douglass graduated from the University of Rochester, the Miami School of Medicine, and the Naval School of Aviation and Space Medicine.

More About the Author

Dr. Douglass comes from a distinguished family of physicians. He is the fourth generation Douglass to practice medicine, and his son (William Campbell Douglass III) is also a physician. Dr. Douglass graduated from the University of Rochester, the University of Miami School of Medicine, and the Naval School of Aviation and Space Medicine.

Dr. Douglass reveals medical truths, and deceptions, often at risk of being labeled heretical. He is consumed by a passion for living a long healthy life, and wants his readers to share that passion. Their health and well-being comes first. He is anti-dogmatic, and unwavering in his dedication to improve the quality of life of his readers. He has been called "the conscience of modern medicine," a "medical maverick," and his medical experiences are far reaching-from battling malaria in Central America - to fighting deadly epidemics at his own health clinic in Africa - to flying with U.S. Navy crews as a flight surgeon - to working for 10 years in emergency medicine in the United States.

This dedicated physician has repeatedly gone far beyond the call of duty in his work to spread the truth about integrating the best science-based medical therapies from all medical disciplines ("alternative medicine"). For a full year, he endured economic and physical hardship to work with physicians at the Pasteur Institute in St. Petersburg, Russia, where advanced research on photoluminescence was being conducted.

These learning experiences and his keen storytelling ability and wit make Dr. Douglass' numerous books on this website and his newsletters - The Douglass Report and Daily Dose - uniquely interesting and fun to read. He shares his no-frills, "no-bull" approach to health care, often amazing his readers by telling them to ignore many widely-hyped good-health practices (like staying away from red meat, avoiding coffee, and eating like a bird), and start living again by eating REAL food, taking some inexpensive supplements, and doing the pleasurable things that make life livable.

Readers of Dr. Douglass´ books and newsletters get all this, plus they learn how to burn fat, prevent heart disease and cancer, boost libido, and so much more. And Dr. Douglass is not afraid to debunk latest research reports that are published, and share the real story with his readers. He has led a colorful, rebellious, and crusading life! Not many physicians would dare put their professional reputations on the line as many times as this courageous healer has. A vocal opponent of "business-as-usual" medicine, Dr. Douglass has championed patients' rights and physician commitment to wellness throughout his career.

5.0 out of 5 stars Freedom lost , Health lost, August 30, 2003
This review is from: The Milk Book: The Milk of Human Kindness Is Not Pasteurized (Paperback)
I had been trying to buy this book for years, sometimes finding a copy but the asking price being over $100. I am so glad it has been republished. Being a conservative I usually frown on corporate and governmental conspiracy notions, but this book has opened my eyes to both. What the health bureaucrats and the dairy industry did to Raw Certified Milk was nothing short of a travesty on the health of this nation. It proves that the general public will always give up freedom due to fear. This is a tactic common in Communist and socialist countries and it is a shame that it is practiced here as well. (The Patriot act is another example of freedoms lost in an instant due to fear induced by the government). Will the tremendous benefits of Raw Milk ever be known again? The odds unfortunately are against it. I read Dirk Van Loon's 'The Family Cow' years ago and then bought a Jersey cow and milked her. Even though I nearly got Carpal-Tunnel syndrome doing it by hand, it was a great experience. We now have more land and are looking forward to buying another milk cow (with a machine milker this time). Armed with the knowledge of how to produce clean fresh REAL milk via Dr Douglass's book, my family will be able to shed the grocery store garbage that carries the name of milk today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do Not Trust Doctors Unless They Have Studied Nutrition, December 23, 2005
By 
Michael K. (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Milk Book: The Milk of Human Kindness Is Not Pasteurized (Paperback)
I used to love milk. In high school, I drank half a gallon a day. And this laid the foundation for a health crisis. In my 30's, I developed severe lactose intolerance. While attending a 12-week holistic health class, taught by someone with the anti-establishment credentials of Dr. Douglas, I discovered why. Modern processing kills all the natural enzymes found in milk that allow the body to process milk. This forces your body to deplete its own store of enzynes. This eventually results in lactose intolerance. When I drank RAW milk, which still contains these enzymes, I was fine. I searched for this book for years without luck. I am so glad to see it back in print. Doctors who search for the truth, rely on natural cures, and practice preventative medicine are often persecuted in this Country. I take my hat off to Dr. Douglas. If you are lactose intolerant, drink some raw milk and you will see the difference. Over the years, my body has healed enough so that I can eat milk products in moderation, but I still stay away from milk. I have learned my lesson.

4.0 out of 5 stars Science with a Sense of Humor, February 9, 2007
This review is from: The Milk Book: The Milk of Human Kindness Is Not Pasteurized (Paperback)
This highly-readable book discusses the merits of raw milk, along with such related topics as mothers' milk, the eating of meat, and the effect (or, rather, lack thereof) of dietary cholesterol on the human heart. I found Dr. Douglass to be witty, well-informed, and respectful of readers with a wide variety of worldviews (although there is some mild coarse language throughout). This is not an overly scientific book, which may be seen as either a benefit or a downfall, depending on your reason for reading. I only gave it four stars because it is in dire need of proofreading/editing.
