Harvard Declares Milk and Dairy NOT Part of a Healthy Diet:

 The Harvard School of Public Health sent a strong message to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and nutrition experts everywhere with the recent release of its “Healthy Eating Plate” food guide.  The university was responding to the USDA’s new MyPlate guide for healthy eating, which replaced the outdated and misguided food pyramid.

Harvard’s nutrition experts did not pull punches, declaring that the university’s food guide was based on sound nutrition research and more importantly, not influenced by food industry lobbyists.

The above was taken from an article on the following site:

Here is a trailer to a new movie coming out callGot the Facts on Milk?". I will post the full Documentary as soon as I can, but go see it in theatres if it's playing near you so we can support them :) Make Vegan Milks yourself! (Just see the easy, awesome recipe below).

You can use raw, unsalted cashews or almonds for this recipe.

1/2 cup (or more if you like it creamier) raw soaked almonds or raw (unroasted) cashews

3 or 4 Tablespoons raw agave nectar (or raw sugar)

4 cups water

3/4 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract or scrapings from a vanilla bean (optional)

Put the ingredients in a blender for a couple of minutes and pour it through a sieve if it is made with almonds- (you don't need to filter the cashew milk because the cashew are soft and turn into cream easily). Use a sieve with larger holes at first to catch the bigger pieces of nuts and then pour it through a finer one so it will be smooth.

Use this milk to replace any recipe that calls for milk, or chill it and drink as is. I love it so much! I make milk shakes by adding bananas, ice, cinnamon and clove powder to the blender.
