A short explanation in the following lines will explain why this is not recommended:<\/p>\n
Goat’s milk may have a bacterium called Brucella. This bacterium causes a disease called Brucellosis, which is common in sheep, cattle, camels, dogs and pigs.<\/p>\n
The disease is most common in sheep and goats of the Bedouin in the Negev and in the Arab sector in the region of Wadi Arah and the Galilee.<\/p>\n
A major risk factor is uncontrolled growth of unsupervised and unimmunized shepherds, contact with them and the use of contaminated produce.<\/p>\n
Another risk factor is contaminated dairy products of unsupervised domestic dairies in this sector, which don’t pasteurize the milk.<\/p>\n
Brucellosis’ symptoms are fever, headache, swollen lymph nodes, sweating, weakness, liver enlargement and more (I think that’s enough …)<\/p>\n
When pasteurizing the milk this bacterium is destroyed.<\/p>\n
Now, when you are aware of the danger, think about what is best for you – that your child will suffer aphtha’s aches or brucellosis …<\/p>\n
May we all feel only good..<\/p>\n
