Pathogenic E coli are passed typically to humans from ruminant animals (cows or sheep) via faecal contamination in the food chain or through consumption of raw milk or meat products.
Nature Newsmany yoghurts are loaded with live bacteria, and labelled with claims that consuming these microorganisms can be good for your health.
But a study published today shows that such yoghurts have only subtle effects on the bacteria already in the gut

The Takarkori shelter and others nearby are home to vivid and colourful rock art depicting cattle, some with full udders,
Of those 29, at least half contained fats came from dairy foods. Carbon isotopes from milk fat can also point to the sorts of food the dairy animals ate
as different plants incorporate varying amounts of carbon-13 relative to carbon-12. The team found that the milk fats came from a range of plants,
potentially suggesting that the people milking the animals moved around a lot, Evershed says. They may even have grazed their cattle up and down mountains,
Fresh milk is uncontaminated a reliably source of fluid and people able to tolerate lactose may have stayed better hydrated than people without the gene."

Breast-milk molecule raises risk of HIV transmissiona type of sugar that occurs naturally in breast milk can double the likelihood of a HIV-negative baby acquiring the virus through breast feeding
The molecule, called 3'-sialyllactose (3'-SL), is found in varying concentrations in the milk of different women.
if the mother's milk has an above-average level of 3'-SL1. But not all milk sugars are problematic
San diego, told a symposium of the International Society for Research in Human Milk and Lactation in Trieste, Italy, over the weekend.
HIV-negative infants who consumed these sugars had a better chance of reaching their second birthday than did HIV-negative babies who drank breast milk lacking those sugars irrespective of their mothers'HIV status. Once a baby had caught HIV, however
Several labs are trying to identify how variation in the prevalence of the large sugar molecules in breast milk, collectively known as human milk oligosaccharides (HMOS), influences infant health.
I think the field has underestimated the variation in human milk, says David Newberg, a carbohydrate specialist at Boston College in Massachusetts.
and the inability of affected infants to secrete a suite of oligosaccharides in their mucus. These babies are considered particularly likely to benefit from drinking the sugars via breast milk,
but about 10%of European women cannot make them in their milk either. At the symposium, Bode described how his lab has pinpointed an HMO called disialyllacto-N-tetraose (DSLNT) that seems to underlie breast milk s contribution to NEC risk.
In rats, they found that upping the levels of that sugar could reduce the severity of NEC on its own3.
five US hospitals are set to monitor DSLNT concentration in the breast milk of mothers whose premature babies develop NEC,
and extracting it from breast milk would be prohibitively expensive.""DSLNT is probably the longest one HMO that has been identified to have an effect,

milk from the cattle that they had begun to herd. Peter Bogucki, an archaeologist at Princeton university in New jersey, was in the 1980s among the first to suspect that cheese-making might have been afoot in Europe as early as 5
Bogucki reasoned that Neolithic farmers had found a way to use their herds for more than milk or meat1.
with biochemical proof that the strainers were used to separate dairy fats. MÃ lanie Salque, a chemist at the University of Bristol, UK, used gas chromatography and carbon-isotope ratios to analyse molecules preserved in the pores of the ancient clay

She suggests that Neolithic people might have curdled their milk with bacteria that are found in nature, resulting in a clumpy version of modern mozzarella.
Evidence of dairy farming has previously been found at archaeological sites dating from the fifth millennium bc in Africa3 and the seventh millennium bc near Istanbul4.
and her colleagues collected milk by pump from all the women in the study after they had exclusively breastfed their infants for four months.
The milk from women who then stopped breastfeeding abruptly contained markedly higher levels of HIV than did milk from the women who continued to breastfeed exclusively:
a median of 2, 708 copies of VIRAL RNA per millilitre of milk compared with fewer than 50 copies per millilitre.
HIV levels in milk rose markedly between samples taken just before weaning and those taken two weeks later;
"Weaning leads to increases in HIV concentrations in breast milk. That s the big message of the paper, says Aldrovandi."
She notes that viral breast-milk levels were substantially higher in mothers who started weaning their infants in the two weeks before the milk collection than in those who breastfed exclusively.
If you have a diet of potato and milk, you don t need anything else. The disappearance of that staple had devastating consequences,

#Most Breast Milk Sold Online Is contaminated When organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the World health organization tell moms to breastfeed their infants they may not be considering the role of internet milk.
Yet driven by their conviction that breast is best a number of parents have begun buying
Experts have worried long buyers may be getting milk that's spoiled or contaminated with pathogens. Now a new study is offering the first scientific evidence that breast milk sold
The journal Pediatrics has published the first study of the safety of breast milk purchased online comparing milk from milk banks
which screen and dispense milk to milk from an exchange website anybody can join. The study scientists from several Ohio research institutes didn't name the website from which they bought their milk
but popular ones include Only the Breast and Eats on Feets. Team members purchased 101 breast milk samples from the exchange site
and tested the samples for illness-causing microbes. They found 74 percent of the samples were contaminated with bacteria such as E coli.
whether contaminated purchased milk made babies sick. However the study researchers say such milk is likely dangerous for infants especially premature babies or babies with other medical problems.
Breast milk banks screen their donators for illnesses and pasteurize the milk they sell so they're safer the researchers found.
There's only enough bank milk for the neediest infants in hospitals however and bank milk costs as much as $6 an ounce The New york times reports.
That's much more than the freely exchanged stuff which ranges from $1 to $2 an ounce.

Infographic Whether you can digest milk comfortably after childhood is a genetic fluke. For many people the ability to produce lactase--the enzyme that allows the body to break down lactase the sugar in milk--disappears after childhood
when we no longer need to survive on our mother's milk. Lactase persistence--the gene that allows about a third of adults to drink milk without major digestive pains--tends to break down geographically as you can see in this infographic from Nature's history of milk tolerance.
It's largely a European phenomenon evolving from a single genetic mutation that occurred less than 10000 years ago.
As Nature explains: Researchers estimate that the allele for lactase persistence might have popped up as recently as 7500 years ago starting in Hungary.
The small pockets of milk tolerance in the middle East West Africa and southern Asia are thought to be part of different genetic mutations.

Now it turns out that yogurt our precious lady-nectar! might make men's testicle-balls bigger spermier
Seriously yogurt? Et tu? What's next are they going to announce that watching House Hunters International makes your semen taste like fondue?
MIT researchers exploring the relationship between yogurt consumption and obesity fed a group of 80 mice either a junk food diet
or a standard diet supplementing half of each group with yogurt. As expected the junk-food mice wound up fatter and slower than the standard-diet mice and the mice that ate the standard diet plus yogurt were the slimmest of all.
This suggests that incorporating probiotics into one's diet can help with weight loss. Also (favorite sentence:
the scientists noticed that the yogurt-eating mice were incredibly shiny. Sparkle you special little mouse!

Yogurt is pretty easy. The hardest part is finding an unadulterated culture to start with. Plain Chobani yogurt is good.
Most yogurts have crap in them so they won't work right. Bring a quart of milk to 185 degrees.
Let it cool down to about 110 degrees. Drop in about 2 tablespoons of room-temperature yogurt and mix well.

#Eating Yogurt Does Weird Things To Your Brain Does what you eat affect your body more or your mind?
Yogurt contains probiotics a kind of good gut bacteria that may have health benefits. Researchers wanted to test out the relationship between probiotics
and fed one of the groups (the lucky group) yogurt with probiotics one group a yogurt-like dairy product and one group nothing.
During the study the yogurt group got the probiotic goodness twice a day every day for four weeks.
Perhaps yogurt could help. Tasks like that are a measurement of activity in certain brain regions
but not necessarily in the positive way you'd anticipate with a healthy food like yogurt:
during the task the women who ate the real yogurt actually had decreased activity in the part of the brain that regulates body sensations.
So what's yogurt doing to your brain? Hard to say. It's a small sample size
It's more of an open question now how that relationship affects how much yogurt you'll want to stock up on.
Was this yogurt also mixed with much sugar? If it did have much sugar and not yogurt alone then even this preliminary test is corrupted
and beside 36 people is really tiny test group too. I think the only major difference would have been the bacteria content.
2 portions yoghurt a day is just a small percentage of your total diet. So other nutrients in each woman diet can cloud results;
This is due to the fact that the numbers of gut bateria are far greater then the relatively small numbers in the probiotic yoghurt;
Instead of yoghurt why not reduce the number of variables and just give them straight probiotic pills?
I eat Yoghurt to calm my stomach. And I've always thought yoghurt is exempted from having undesirable effects.
So what does this mean: decreased activity in the part of the brain that regulates body sensations.
& the lucky ones sounds like comercial propaganda disguised as lab results to evoke existing popular beliefs about yoghurt

This makes dairy farming an expensive enterprise. Breakfast prognosis: Milk prices have declined this year from a high of $3. 74 per gallon in May to $3. 65 in July.
But overall prices have been climbing since mid-2009 when milk dipped below $3 a gallon.
Interestingly an article from ABC earlier this year points out that other dairy products like yogurt or cheese aren t quite as volatile as they don t tend to have the same short shelf life as fresh milk.

Their goal-a cheese made with no animal products that fully evokes the real dairy deal has struck a nerve:
and combine it with water vegetable butter and vegan sugar (instead of lactose) to make a milk substitute.
Finally this vegan milk can be turned into Real Vegan Cheese in the same way that normal cheese is produced from cow milk.
and could also curb dairy farming's impacts on the environment such as emissions of methane a greenhouse gas from cow farts and decomposing manure.
Milk is chock full of a structure known as micelles Dr. Ricky writes which form a framework that holds and transports lots of calcium to mammal offspring.
This molecular structure is intrinsic to forming curds a cheese precursor which won't appear simply

but also in the quality of the milk and the way that the cheese is made: the way it's processed the microbes that are added
and flavors just like different dairy cheeses. I think it's great that they are bringing more attention to the impacts of animal agriculture
and dairy farming in particular writes Agapakis but I think it's also important (or at least interesting and relevant) to highlight the range
