Why Organic Dairy?

Research has also established that organic milk has higher levels of Vitamin E, Vitamin A and antioxidants. Organically reared cows, which eat high levels of fresh grass, clover pasture and grass clover silage, produce milk which is on average 50% higher in Vitamin E, 75% higher in beta carotene (which our bodies convert to Vitamin A) and two to three times higher in the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthine than non-organic milk.

Drinking a pint of organic milk a day provides 17.5% of the required intake of Vitamin E (alpha tocopherol) for women and 14% of that for men, and as much beta carotene as a portion of some vegetables such as Brussels sprouts.

All milk contains conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which is believed to boost immune function and reduce the growth of tumours.
