The way a cow is raised and milked has a dramatic effect on the estrogen content of its milk. US dairy operations are characterized by continuous milking, high yield demands, and artificial insemination, all of which elevate estrogen levels in milk. Milk from grain-fed, non-organic cows is likely to contain glyphosate residues and higher levels of omega-6 fatty acids, making it more inflammatory.
