In the world of dairy, there are countless options available, but for one family running a sheep dairy farm, the decision to embrace sheep milk has produced great results for their health and well-being.
We recently had the pleasure of speaking with one of our dedicated Maui Milk suppliers about their journey into sheep dairying and the positive changes they’ve had. Ruby told us, "After our experience, I would highly recommend sheep milk above other dairy options and especially plant-based products - it really is a super food in comparison."
Why Sheep Milk
Before starting their sheep dairying journey, this family understood the exceptional qualities of sheep milk and were excited by the potential to run a productive, sustainable and high-welfare sheep dairy system. “One of the key reasons we explored this path was our desire to produce high-quality food for our family and consumers.” They’ve been incorporating sheep milk into their family’s diet for the past five years, and the switch was motivated by their sons’ struggles with cow’s milk. “After initial experiments with cow dairy at 9 months old, we quickly made the shift to sheep milk,” they explained.
Visible Benefits
Adding sheep milk into their family's diet has been amazing. They mentioned, “Since we started drinking sheep milk regularly, our boys have had way less tummy trouble and digestive issues.” They also noticed that their sons feel fuller for a longer time due to the high nutritional value, which helps reduce the usual “I’m hungry!” that many parents hear from their growing kids.
Taste Test with Success
Taste is an essential factor in any dairy choice, and the family’s young boys have readily embraced sheep milk. Ruby shared. “Our 3½-year-old calls it his ‘creamy milk,’ while our youngest just adores his bottle, and when we have friends and family visit, they often comment on the wholesome, clean and creamy taste of the milk." Proof that this transition has not only been beneficial to health but also to family enjoyment.
A Glowing Recommendation
When asked whether they would recommend sheep milk to other families, their answer was a resounding yes. “I highly recommend sheep milk to friends and family, especially if digestion or allergies are a concern,” they said. Their experience has solidified their belief that sheep milk is a superior option compared to other dairy options and plant-based alternatives. “It’s truly a superfood in comparison,” they remarked.
In Conclusion
This family's journey into sheep dairy serves as an inspiring reminder of the significant impact our food choices can have on our health. Their experience positions them as advocates for sheep milk, highlighting its remarkable benefits for families everywhere.
If you're looking for a gentler dairy option that focuses on nutritional value or simply want something that helps you feel fuller for longer, sheep milk could be the perfect choice for you and your loved ones.
