When choosing milk-based dairy products, look for organic brands whose cows are grass fed and raised without antibiotics or hormones. Read labels and avoid products containing preservatives such as postassium sorbate, fillers, stabilizers, guar gum, carageenan, and other unnecessary, unpronounceable ingredients! The label for cottage cheese for example, should list only the following ingredients: Cultured Pasteurized Grade A Skim Milk, Milk, Cream, and Salt. Not only are these products more eco-friendly, they also are effective components of a healthy lifestyle and the Perricone Prescription Diet.
