#Self-Education

Ever wondered how a cup of milk, a scoop of ice cream,


or a slice of cheese is produced?

A livestock masturbator
collects sperms from a male
cow, by hand or a sucking
machine (classified as one of
the worst jobs).

An inseminating worker
forcibly inserts his/her hand
deeply into a female cows
vagina and puts the sperms
into her uterus.

The mother cow, now The mother cow gives birth


impregnated, waits for her and after about 40-60 days
baby arrival about 283 days. she is ready to be exploited

Most male baby cows are either killed few days after
their coming to this world or are kept in cages to put on
weight and be ready for slaughterhouse. Almost all
female babies are destined to live like their mothers,
starting to carry babies few years after their birthday. If
they are not profitable, they are also sent to slaughter.

Mother cows are milked for


about 2-3 times a day for
about 305 days until they are
impregnated again. After 4-5
years they are sent to slaughter
(normal lifespan: 20 years).

Mastitis
or
the
painful
inflammation of udder is common
among cows (67%) due to
distress. As a result, millions of
dead white cells (or pus: BTSCC)
and/or blood enter the milk. Milk
with BTSCC of 750,000 cells/mL
can be sold.

The extracted milk is sent for


pasteurization where most of the
harmful and beneficial bacteria, as well
as a lot of nutrients are destroyed.
Heat-resistant microbes such as MAP
and bacillus continue to live in milk.

To maximize production, cows


food are sometimes mixed with
animal protein form dead pigs
and chickens. A cow is also
genetically modified and fed
antibiotics and hormones to
produce up to 20,000 pounds
milk/year (economic viability).

The final product still contains active microbes,


pus and antibiotics. Excess antibiotics make
bacteria more resistant and are a threat to
humans too. Dairy protein, casein, is turned
into casomorphin in body, which is an
addictive substance like morphine. 70-75% of
the world population are lactose-intolerant.
