All mothers want to keep their child with them, safe and healthy. Pregnant and new mothers will know this best.
When we take the milk from a cow, we are separating her baby calf from her and depriving her of milk. This leads to stress in the cow which is then transferred through the milk. And when pregnant and lactating, women are told to reduce stress in any form, but when they consume dairy milk they are consuming the cows stress too.
Also, nature has meant for all mammals to make milk only for their babies and not for any other species. Human babies are meant to breastfeed for the first few years of their life only – after that, they do not need milk.
Vegan babies are known to be intelligent, full of energy and hardly fall sick.
