Goat Milk<br />
A Good Food for The Heart<br />
People often say that goat milk is bad<br />
for those with high blood pressure and<br />
cholesterol. To a great extent, they are<br />
absolutely correct. Fresh goat milk is<br />
bad for people with hypertension. This<br />
is because raw, unprocessed goat milk<br />
contains high saturated fat, which is the<br />
cause of heart disease. However, there is<br />
a difference between formulated milk and<br />
raw milk as formulated milk like Karihome<br />
had skimmed all the harmful fats to<br />
provide you with good fats. In fact, goat<br />
milk when removed of all the harmful fats<br />
is actually very good for health.<br />
Fact 1<br />
Goat milk contains higher calcium than<br />
cow milk. Calcium is an important<br />
mineral to reduce high blood pressure<br />
as it can relax blood vessels. Aside<br />
from this, Goat milk is also fortified with<br />
potassium. Potassium is known to dilate<br />
blood vessels thus helpful in lowering<br />
blood pressure.<br />
Fact 2<br />
Goat milk is a nutritionally wholesome<br />
food. It contains natural vitamins such as<br />
vitamin B12. These vitamins can reduce<br />
blood pressure by reducing a certain<br />
substance that is commonly associated<br />
with heart disease called homocysteine.<br />
Fact 3<br />
Although fat has been the prime cause<br />
of cardiovascular disease, our body still<br />
require daily intake of fat to maintain<br />
our body function. Since Karihome is<br />
a formulated milk, it does not contains<br />
any saturated fat which can cause heart<br />
disease. Instead, Karihome also retains<br />
medium chain fatty acid. Medium chain<br />
fatty acid is a type of unsaturated fats that<br />
will not cause high blood pressure and it<br />
is easier to digest, suitable for the elderly.<br />
What more goat milk has<br />
to offer?<br />
As the casein protein in goat milk is<br />
smaller in size, it contains more surface<br />
area to digest the protein. Apart from<br />
this, goat milk also contains more<br />
medium chain triglyceride (MCT), which<br />
as the name suggests, are unsaturated fat<br />
that can be broken down and absorbed<br />
easily by the body. And because of<br />
this, MCT is able to provide energy<br />
more readily which help us to get rid of<br />
lethargic feeling.<br />
Karihome milk source<br />
and quality<br />
Karihome Goat Milk Formulas are<br />
manufactured by the Dairy Goat Cooperative<br />
(N.Z.) Ltd., (known as DGC),<br />
a farmer-owned co-operative in New<br />
Zealand, whose goat milk production<br />
reaches 90% of the total output in New<br />
Zealand. Karihome is manufactured<br />
in the ideal nourishing environment,<br />
New Zealand. Goats are particularly<br />
well bred and strong in New Zealand.<br />
They produce rich nutritious milk. New<br />
Zealand’s dairy goats are fed on the<br />
green and lush pastures of New Zealand.<br />
The high quality of food for the goats<br />
corresponds directly to the quality of milk<br />
that they produce. In most other countries<br />
of the world, goats are fed on processed<br />
meal and grain. New Zealand goat milk<br />
is rich in alpha-s2-casein, and not the<br />
alpha-s1-casein variant which is known to<br />
cause allergic reactions.<br />
Own farms with unique<br />
free-range grazing system<br />
Karihome utilises free range grazing<br />
system where fresh grasses are added to<br />
the goats’ feed, allowing them to take in<br />
the unique nutrients. This results in high<br />
levels of natural bioactives (conjugated<br />
linoleic acids (CLA), natural taurine, Sialic<br />
Acids (SA), nucleotides) in Karihome<br />
goat formulas. All Karihome formulas<br />
are manufactured in New Zealand<br />
and stringent quality checks are made<br />
from the collection of milk on-farm to<br />
manufacturing and packaging to offer<br />
nutritionally complete and safe products<br />
for all ages.<br />
