Nitrogen in milk
Hi, Dairy Scientists
The nitrogen in milk is divided into the protein in casein and whey protein. There is also a small percentage of NPN(non-protein nitrogen), which is in itself divided into Urea and non-Urea nitrogen.

Dairy cooperatives face July 1 deadline on CWT
“Dairy cooperatives have until July 1 to decide if they will pay a dime assessment to belong to Cooperatives Working Together.
CWT, a voluntary self-help program started by the dairy industry in July 2003, offers herd retirement and export assistance programs in an effort to control the US milk supply and keep farm milk prices stable. ”

Balanced Milk
Hi, Milk Fans
You know why I always say milk is balanced?
Well if you look at the composition of cow and goat milk, you will see that the fat, protein and lactose(carbohydrate) is more balanced than in almost any other food. This helps regulate blood sugar and gives you all-round nourishment throughout the day.

How do you divide calories through the day?
Hi, Dairy Dieters
Most diets tell you to cut calories towards the end of the day. I think this is valid and I understand the reasoning that it helps you not to go to bed with a full stomach. What I have found though is that people that do this are eating too many calories anyway and need to cut back further.
When your calories are low enough you can eat the same amount of calories at every meal. I find that people that cut back at the end of the day, usually are very hungry the next day and this will cut into their reserves too much.
Also keep moderate amounts of fats, protein and carbohydrate in your diet and in all meals as the fat and protein slows down digestion. This means less up and downs in your blood sugar. As long as you are eating less calories than your body needs to maintain weight, you will lose, no matter what you eat.Â
