Better Milk for Healthier Babies

Here's another reason to spend the extra money on organic milk. New research suggests that mothers who drink organic milk during pregnancy and while breastfeeding their babies could help their babies avoid allergies.

A study in the British Journal of Nutrition found that organic dairy products might help children fight off asthma, eczema and other allergies, according to an article in The Scotsman, a newspaper in Scotland.

I know that organic milk costs more -- a lot more -- than regular milk, but the benefits of this healthier food is worth it.

I buy organic milk for my son whenever possible. (Organic milk is almost never sold at the local convenience store, so when we run out late at night I am forced to buy the regular stuff.)
