april 29 at the thornhill community centre a taste of nutrition pros cons relating to ffoats milk value by helen fedyck york region nutritionist goats milk is gaining popularity in north america some of this popu larity is due to a pre ference for the fla vor but much of it is due to the claims made that goats milk is more nutri tious than cows milk that it is su perior to cows milk for babies or that people suffering from allergies to cows milk are able to drink goats milk although the use of goats milk is re latively new to most of us it has been used extensively in central and south ern europe for cen- turics cheese- making from goats milk is of national economic import ance in many areas such as france switzerland nor way greece italy and the middle east now dairy far mers with goats are starting to gain a greater portion of the dairy market in north america the facts before you rush out to buy some goats milk look at some of the facts that surround the claims for its super iority compare the nut rients the key nutrients thatwe ex pect to obtain from milk are protein calcium riboflavin vitamin a and vita min d the key nut rients and several other nutrients in goats milk com pare favorably with cows milk howev er vitamin d and folic acid are much lower in the goats milk vitamin d is necessary for formation and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth currently in canada it is man datory for vitamin d to be added to cows milk sold as fluid milk canned milk or powdered however it is un lawful to add vita min d or any other vitamins to milk other than cows milk anyone re placing allor most of their milk con sumption with goats milk will need a sup plemental source of vitamin d folic acid is necessary for heal thy red blood cell formation and it is readily available in our food supply however for babies who are receiving only milk a folic acid supplement would be necessary if goats milk is used for babies physicians and nutritionists do not recommend unmod ified milk of any kind nor home- prepared formulas from such milk for infants under six months of age there is a special concern in using goats milk because of the levels of folic acid and vitamin d vitamin d is avail able in infant sup plements however folic acid presents a problem if goats milk is used for babies a folic acid supple ment of 50 micro grams per day is necessary to pre vent megaloblastic anemia it is not currently possible to purchase folic acid in a form to allow the addition of such a small amount therefore at this time it is not advisable to use fresh pasteurized goats milk for babies for allergies a new trend is to substitute goats milk in the diet of people allergic to cows milk although many will be allergic to goats milk as well about onethird will find it a good calciumrich alternative at this time goats milk costs 50 per cent more than cows milk although you may choose to spend the money for taste pre ferences it is not necessary from a nutritional point of view just as for cows milk ontario laws require that goats milk be pasteurized before being sold in fact it is illegal to sell offer for saje or even give away un pasteurized milk because unpasteu rized milk can be hazardous to your health make sure that you drink only pasteurized goats milk children and adults who choose to drink goats milk can do so safely if it is pasteurized and supplemented with vitamin d goats milk is not recom mended for use in infant formulas r by ian bailey in local hero scottish writerdirector bill forsyth chronicles the seduction of a houston oil companys corporate values by the simple sentimental values they per ceive in a scottish village where they want to build a refinery the fact that the villagers are eager to sell their way of life for the millions they re offered is a joke played out during the visit of the company representative peter rigert when their greed becomes ob vious forsyth tosses in other devices to keep things moving but they are weari some exercises in a film that quickly estab lishes itself as alternately beguibng and boring on the positive side local hero is a mostly charming exercise in the sort of sentimentality john ford touched in his how green was my valley it is also sad dled with a quirky monty phythonesque sense of humor but it doesnt really move it is so laid back that at its most maudlin it nearly fades off the screen the film features some charming char acterizations by a cast ranging from peter capaldi as a scottish geologist in love with a mermaid to denis lawson as the wily owner of a local inn who doubles as chef bartender and local accountant as well as a splendid performance by burt lancaster as the daffy astronomycrazed owner of the oil company forsyth has a tendency for establishing running gags which are first original then mumbling yet they are samples of the bright flashes of wit that make the entire exercise interesting and mark forsyth as a talent to be watched local hero is a film whose success rests on a personal level for fast results economist and sun sthc ttriunc 2942200 6402100 the weekend that lasts for years enjoy a healthy refreshing
