PROCESSED MILK
By A Brother from the UK
I refer to the recent Majlis article on TURMERIC MILK.
I believe that the processed milk found in most shops
nowadays is quite harmful to health. There are many
people who suffer from what the doctors label "lactose
intolerance", who are unable to consume processed milk.
In reality, such intolerance is the body's natural reaction to
toxicity.
The fact that many people are still able to drink such milk
does not negate the existence of toxicity, in the same way
as people today are able to stomach the world of toxic junk
foods, while a minority do exhibit intolerance to the very
same junk foods.
I have also found that many people who suffer from
lactose intolerance are able to drink raw, unprocessed milk
without any issues. For example, I have an uncle who has
had lactose intolerance since his childhood. Supermarket
milk would make him vomit. A few years ago he became
practically bedridden and homebound due to some strange
illness which no doctor was able to diagnose.
I started giving him raw milk to drink regularly. He was
not only able to drink it without any of the reactions or
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
3
signs of intolerance which his body would exhibit from
processed milk since his childhood, but also his health
seemed to improve dramatically.
I composed a short article on raw milk a while ago, which
I have attached below.
RAW,
UNPASTEURISED
AND
UNPOLLUTED
MILK FROM HUMANELY REARED, PASTURE-
FED COWS IS A CURE FOR ALL DISEASES
Rasulullah ﷺ
exhorting one to drink milk, said:
عليكن بألبان البقر ، فإنها ترم هن كل شجر ، و هى شفاء هن كل داء
"It is incumbent upon you (to drink) cow’s milk, for it
nourishes itself from all kinds of plants and it is a cure for
every disease.” (Authentic Hadith recorded in the Musnad
of Abu Hanifah and other collections)
Rasulullah ﷺ
said:
"Use cow’s milk as treatment for disease, for indeed I
anticipate that Allah places in it a cure, for indeed it eats
from every (kind of) plant."
[Authentic Hadith recorded by al-Hakim, at-Tabarani and
others]
Rasulullah ﷺ
said:
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK

“Incumbent upon you is cow’s milk, for indeed it is a
remedy (for all diseases), and its butterfat is a cure.
However, beware of its meat, for indeed its meat is (a
cause of) disease."
[Authentic Hadith recorded by al-Haakim]
Allah Ta„ala says in the Qur‟an, confirming the numerous
benefits of uncontaminated milk:
"Indeed for you, in livestock is a lesson. We give you drink
from that which is in their bellies, and for you in them are
numerous benefits, and from them you eat." (Qur‟an
23:21)
It is important to note that almost all commercially
available milk nowadays is NOT raw, organic, and from
grass-fed cows/goats, etc. Instead it is pasteurised,
homogenised and the milked animals have usually been
fed artificial food and hormones, injected with poisonous
vaccines, and raised in inhumane conditions.
Rasulullah ﷺ
used to drink pure, unprocessed, raw milk,
from naturally-fed animals, often immediately after
milking, as related in numerous authentic Hadith.
Here is one of countless articles from non-Muslim doctors
who have experienced first-hand the miracle cure found in
raw, unprocessed milk which Rasulullah ﷺ
used to
drink and which he ﷺ
exhorted his Ummah to take
benefit from:

THE MILK CURE
The following is an edited version of an article by Dr. J. R.
Crewe, published in Certified Milk Magazine. The milk
used was, in all cases, the only kind of milk available in
those days—raw milk from pasture-fed cows, rich in
butterfat.
The treatment is a combination of detoxifying fast and
nutrient-dense feeding.
Note that Crewe quotes William Osler, author of a
standard medical textbook of the day. Thus, this protocol
was an orthodox, accepted therapy in the early 1900s.
For fifteen years the writer has employed the certified milk
treatment in various diseases and during the past ten he
had a small sanitarium devoted principally to this
treatment. The results obtained in various types of disease
have been so uniformly excellent that one‟s conception of
disease and its alleviation is necessarily changed. The
method itself is so simple that it does not greatly interest
most doctors and the main stimulus for its use is from the
patients themselves.
The therapy is simple. The patients are put at rest in bed
and are given at half hour intervals small quantities of
milk, totalling from five to ten quarts of milk a day. Most
patients are started on three or four quarts of milk a day
and this is usually increased by a pint a day.
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK

The treatment is used in many chronic conditions but
chiefly in tuberculosis, diseases of the nervous system,
cardiovascular and renal conditions, hypertension, and in
patients who are underweight, run-down, etc. Striking
results are seen in diseases of the heart and kidneys and
high blood pressure. In cases in which there is marked
edema, the results obtained are surprisingly marked. This
is especially striking because so-called dropsy has never
been treated with large quantities of fluid.
With all medication withdrawn, one case lost twenty-six
pounds in six days, huge edema disappearing from the
abdomen and legs, with great relief to the patient. No
cathartics or diuretics were given. This property of milk in
edema has been noted in both cardiac and renal cases.
Patients with cardiac disease respond splendidly without
medication. In patients who have been taking digitalis and
other stimulants, the drugs are withdrawn. High blood
pressure patients respond splendidly and the results in
most instances are quite lasting. The treatment has been
used successfully in obesity without other alimentation.
One patient reduced from 325 pounds to 284 in two
weeks, on four quarts of milk a day, while her blood
pressure was reduced from 220 to 170. Some extremely
satisfying results have been obtained in a few cases of
diabetics.
When sick people are limited to a diet containing an
excess of vitamins and all the elements necessary to
growth and maintenance, which are available in milk, they
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
7
recover rapidly without the use of drugs and without
bringing to bear all the complicated weapons (and side-
effects) of modern medicine
Under the head of Treatment in Chronic Gastritis, Osler
has said, “A rigid milk diet should be tried” (Principles
and Practices of Medicine, by William Osler, M.D., eighth
edition - a standard medical textbook used widely by
medical practitioners of that age). Under the heading of
treatment in many diseases, it was true that he had little to
say about drugs but did say a good deal about diet and
particularly as in most every instance he recommended
large quantities of milk.
Under chronic Bright‟s disease (p 704) he says, “Milk or
buttermilk should constitute for a time, the chief article of
food.” Under treatment of cancer of stomach (p 505), he
says many patients do best on milk alone. Under treatment
of rheumatic fever (p 378), he says, “Milk is the most
suitable diet.” With Olser as a background, one need not
hesitate to go a bit farther. In fact, practically all medical
men are agreed as to the value of milk as a food, and as an
important part of the diet in the treatment of many
diseases. But as the chief remedy in the treatment of
disease, it is seldom used.
For more than 16 years I have conducted a small
sanitarium where milk is used almost exclusively in the
treatment of various diseases. The results have been so
regularly satisfactory that I have naturally become
enthusiastic and interested in this method of treating
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
8
disease. We used good Guernsey milk, equal to 700
calories to the quart.
Interestingly, diseases that have no similarity respond
equally to this treatment.
For instance, psoriasis clears up beautifully. The
improvement in tuberculosis or nephritis is equally
interesting but there is no similarity in these diseases. I
once heard a very distinguished medical man discussing a
case of psoriasis. He said,
“This was the worst case of psoriasis I have ever seen.
This boy was literally covered from head to foot with
scales. We put this boy on a milk diet and in less than a
month he had a skin like a baby‟s.” To me, this means that
there was evidently some nutritive substance or vitamin or
glandular secretion lacking, that was furnished by the
milk.
It is well known that there is no time in the life of
practically any mammal, but especially of the human,
when the body is so beautiful and perfect as during the
period when milk is the only food. It will be admitted that
there is no period in life when the body is so perfect as in
infancy, the infant being fed on milk from a healthy
mother.
The Arabs are said (Encyclopedia Brittanica) to be the
finest race, physically, in the world. Their diet consists
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
9
mostly of milk and milk products with fruits and
vegetables, and some meat.
You are all familiar with the writings of Colonel
McCarrison, a medical officer in the British Army. He
tells us that for nine years he was stationed in India in a
district in the Himalayan Mountains. He said that the
natives were very fine physically, that they retained a
youthful appearance to advanced age and lived long
and that they were very fertile. During the nine years
of his residence there he saw practically no disease, no
cases of malignancy or of abdominal disease. The diet
of these people was simple and consisted principally of
vegetables and fruits and milk and milk products
Steffanson wrote most interestingly of the Eskimo, who,
when uncontaminated by civilized conditions were hardy
and robust.
The experience of seeing many cases of illness improve
rapidly on a diet of raw milk has suggested more and more
the feeling that much of modern disease is due to an
increasing departure from simple methods of preparing
plain foods.
The treatment of various diseases over a period of 18 years
with a practically exclusive milk diet has convinced me
personally that the most important single factor in the
cause of disease and in the resistance to disease is food. I
have seen so many instances of the rapid and marked
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
10
response to this form of treatment that nothing could make
me believe this is not so.
We have often seen most satisfactory results in the
treatment of anemia, including pernicious anemia, on a
milk diet. I have repeatedly seen a marked reduction in the
size of simple and toxic thyroid, with improvement in the
symptoms of the toxic one. In prostatic diseases and
associated conditions, this treatment will achieve rapid and
marked improvement in the infection and in the reduction
of the gland and lessening of obstruction. A professor of
surgery in one of our state universities once said to me,
“Since I have used your method in preparing prostate
cases, I have had most excellent results and no mortality.”
I replied that if he had continued the treatment a little
longer, he would not need to operate. All infections of the
urinary tract are greatly improved by this treatment.
An old friend of mine, a woodworker, aged 74, had a
marked heart lesion and complete prostatic obstruction, so
that it was necessary to use a permanent catheter. He had
been taking digitalis but this was discontinued, and he
received no medication of any kind. The prostate was very
large and the residual urine very foul. His recovery has
been rapid, and he has been able to work since that time
and is now in very good health at 77 years of age.
Another local man was treated six years ago for a severe
chronic winter cough and prostatic disease, which
necessitated his getting up many times at night. He
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
11
volunteered the information a few days ago that he had no
more trouble with any illness since that time.
Indeed we had a number of patients who took the
treatment for “beauty treatment.” The tissues become
firmer and the general appearance is markedly improved.
Hypertension responds with equal gratification. The blood
pressure improves rapidly. I have never seen such rapid
and lasting results by any other method. One of the
patients lived almost exclusively on milk for more than
three years.
About ten years ago a very sick man came to the
Sanitarium suffering from a severe cystitis and nephritis.
He was a diabetic. As milk contains about five percent
milk sugar, it was feared that he could not manage this
amount of sugar. But he did manage it, and improved in
every way and in eight weeks was sugar free.
My experience with milk diet in diabetes has been limited,
but very interesting. These few patients, only seven or
eight, have been much pleased with the results. Insulin
was used for a time in some of the cases. They all became
sugar free, or nearly so, after from four to ten weeks. From
the fact that these patients were able to use a much more
liberal diet than diabetics usually can take [after the
treatment], it would seem to indicate that at least a partial
regeneration of the pancreas is not impossible.

There is a large class of patients who are ill but in whom
no definite organic lesion can be found. These patients are
often underweight. They may consume a fairly large
amount of food but they do not gain in weight or strength.
These patients do respond admirably to our system of
large quantities of milk.
The chief fault of the treatment is that it is too simple...
and it does not appeal to the modern medical man.
(End of the Doctor’s dissertation)
The Dua of our Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam)
After drinking milk, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi
wasallam) would recite the follow Dua:
O Allah! Grant us Barakat in it, and give us more.

TURMERIC MILK
Turmeric and Milk have natural Antibiotic properties.
Including these two natural ingredients in your everyday
diet can prevent diseases and infections.
Turmeric when mixed with milk can be very beneficial for
a number of health problems. This is an effective remedy
to fight hazardous environmental toxins and harmful
microorganisms.
RECIPE for Turmeric Milk:
Take 1 inch piece (FRESH) Turmeric root.
If Fresh type is not available then use 1 level tsp Turmeric
Powder.
¼ teaspoon of black pepper
150mls or I glass Milk.
Boil Turmeric and Milk for 15 minutes.
Strain the milk (remove fresh Turmeric piece out).
Cool it and drink this milk.
Benefits of Turmeric Milk:
Anti Inflammatory:
Turmeric milk is anti inflammatory and that can prevent
and protect arthritis and stomach ulcers. This is also
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
14
known as "natural aspirin" that can cure headaches,
swelling and pain.
Cold and Cough:
Turmeric Milk is considered as a best remedy for cold and
cough due to its antiviral and antibacterial properties. It
gives instant relief to sore throat, cough and cold.
Arthritis:
Turmeric Milk is used to cure arthritis and treat swelling
due to rheumatoid arthritis. It also helps to make the joints
and muscles flexible by reducing the pain.
Aches and Pains:
Turmeric golden milk gives the best relief from aches and
pains. This can also strengthen the spine and joints in the
body.
Antioxidant:
Turmeric milk is an excellent source of antioxidants which
fight free radicals.
This can cure many ailments.
Blood Purifier:
Turmeric Milk is considered as an excellent blood purifier
and cleanser. It can revitalize and boost blood circulation
in the body.
It is also a blood thinner that cleanses the lymphatic
system and blood vessels from all impurities.

Liver Detox:
Turmeric milk is a natural liver detoxifier and blood
purifier that boosts liver function. It supports the liver and
cleanses the lymphatic system.
Bone Health:
Turmeric milk is a good source of calcium which is a must
to keep the bones healthy and strong. Turmeric milk
lowers bone loss and osteoporosis.
Digestive Health:
It is a powerful antiseptic that promotes intestinal health
and treats stomach ulcers and colitis. This helps in better
digestive health and prevents ulcers, diarrhea and
indigestion.
Menstrual Cramps:
Turmeric milk works wonders as it is antispasmodic that
eases menstrual cramps and pain. Pregnant women should
take golden turmeric milk for easy delivery, improved
lactation and faster contraction of ovaries.
Rash and Skin Redness:
Ancient queens took turmeric milk baths for soft, supple
and glowing skin.
Similarly drink turmeric milk for glowing skin. Soak
turmeric milk in a cotton ball apply on the affected area
for 15 minutes to reduce skin redness and blotchy patches.
This will make the skin more radiant and glowing than
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK

before.
Weight Loss:
Turmeric milk helps in the breakdown of dietary fat. This
can be useful to control weight.
Eczema:
Drink a glass of turmeric milk everyday to treat eczema.
Insomnia:
Warm turmeric milk produces an amino acid, tryptophan
that induces peaceful and blissful sleep.

PASTEURIZATION – THE DEGRADATION
OF MILK
MILK & MILK PRODUCTS
Another factor contributing to the degradation of today's
milk is pasteurization. We have been taught that
pasteurization is beneficial, a method of protecting
ourselves
against
infectious
disease,
but
closer
examination reveals that its merits have been highly
exaggerated. The modern milking machine and stainless
steel tank, along with efficient packaging and distribution,
make pasteurization totally unnecessary for the purposes
of sanitation. And pasteurization is no guarantee of
cleanliness.
All
outbreaks
of
salmonella
from
contaminated milk in recent decades- and there have been
many- have occurred in pasteurized milk. This includes a
1985 outbreak in Illinois that struck over 14,000 people
causing at least one death. The salmonella strain in that
batch of pasteurized milk was found to be genetically
resistant to both penicillin and tetracycline.121 Raw milk
contains lactic-acid-producing bacteria that protect against
pathogens.
Pasteurization
destroys
these
helpful
organisms, leaving the finished product devoid of any
protective
mechanism
should
undesirable
bacteria
inadvertently contaminate the supply. Raw milk in time
turns pleasantly sour, while pasteurized milk, lacking
beneficial bacteria, will putrefy.
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
18
But that's not all that pasteurization does to milk. Heat
alters milk's amino acids lysine and tyrosine, making the
whole complex of proteins less available; it promotes
rancidity of unsaturated fatty acids and destruction of
vitamins. Vitamin C loss in pasteurization usually exceeds
50 percent; loss of other water-soluble vitamins can run as
high as 80 percent; the Wulzen or anti-stiffness factor is
totally destroyed as is vitamin B12 needed for healthy
blood and a properly functioning nervous system.
Pasteurization reduces the availability of milk's mineral
components, such as calcium, chloride, magnesium,
phosphorus, potassium, sodium and sulphur, as well as
many trace minerals. There is some evidence that
pasteurization alters lactose, making it more readily
absorbable. This, and the fact that pasteurized milk puts an
unnecessary strain on the pancreas to produce digestive
enzymes, may explain why milk consumption in civilized
societies has been linked with diabetes.
Last but not least, pasteurization destroys all the enzymes
in milk- in fact, the test for successful pasteurization is
absence of enzymes. These enzymes help the body
assimilate all bodybuilding factors, including calcium.
That is why those who drink pasteurized milk may suffer
from osteoporosis. Lipase in raw milk helps the body
digest and utilize butterfat.
After pasteurization, chemicals may be added to suppress
odor and restore taste. Synthetic vitamin D2 or D3 is
added -the former is toxic and has been linked to heart
disease while the latter is difficult to absorb. The final
ALBAANUL BAQAR COW‟S MILK
19
indignity is homogenization, which has also been linked to
heart disease.
Powdered skim milk is added to the most popular varieties
of commercial milk- one-percent and two-percent milk.
Commercial dehydration methods oxidize cholesterol in
powdered milk, rendering it harmful to the arteries. High
temperature drying also creates large quantities of cross-
linked proteins and nitrate compounds, which are potent
carcinogens, as well as free glutamic acid, which is toxic
to the nervous system.
Modem pasteurized milk, devoid of its enzyme content,
puts an enormous strain on the body's digestive
mechanism. In the elderly, and those with milk intolerance
or inherited weaknesses of digestion, this milk passes
through not fully digested and can build up around the tiny
villi of the small intestine, preventing the absorption of
vital nutrients and promoting the uptake of toxic
substances. The result is allergies, chronic fatigue and a
host of degenerative diseases.
All the healthy milk-drinking populations studied by Dr.
Price consumed raw milk, raw cultured milk or raw cheese
from normal healthy animals eating fresh grass or fodder.
It is very difficult to find this kind of milk in America. In
California, New Mexico and Connecticut, raw milk is
available in health food stores, although such milk often
comes from cows raised in confinement.

In many states you can buy raw milk at the farm. If you
can find a farmer who will sell you raw milk from old-
fashioned Jersey or Guernsey cows (or from goats), tested
free of tuberculosis and brucellosis and allowed to feed on
fresh pasturage, then by all means avail yourself of this
source.
