I have been eating 100% grassfed raw dairy for about two months now. Knock on wood, I have been doing OK so far gut-wise!
I just wanted to see if it affected my blood glucose or ketone level. So I ordered some testing strips. They arrived and I have tested twice. I was very happy to see that the grassfed dairy has not spiked my glucose at all! My postprandial glucose was 94 and morning glucose was 72 mg/dL. And my ketones have been mostly 1.4mmol/L. So that is great!
I have mostly been intermittent fasting, 6-8 hour eating window daily, all before noon.
I am really happy with these results! The grassfed raw dairy is even more affordable than the $5/lb grassfed beef cuts I have been buying! So that is great for my new retirement budget.
I have making ряжанка, Ukrainian baked and fermented milk. Just milk slow cooked overnight then fermented for 4-6 hours with a little sour cream. And молочний суп, milk soup, made with milk and butter. So tasty!
I saute' beef liver in butter and milk. The milk thickens a bit to make a creamy sauce. This is Ukrainian style too.
I also have been enjoying beefheart "nachos". I dehydrate super-thin slices of beefheart, top with cooked ground beef, melted cheese, and sour cream.
And "parfaits" with sour cream, melted gjetost, and browned butter. Mmm! So nutritious and high in vitamin K2.
I have really been enjoying eating the dairy and exploring some traditional Ukrainian recipes!
