I'm not surprised, but Wikipedia is only good for a quick search. And even so, it's always good to look at its references.

And I'll stick with raw milk. I think the issue is that people are consuming over processed things, where everything of substance has been killed off. And if animal protein brings up acidity, then eat something that lowers it, which would in turn stabilize everything.
Exactly. However, I don't think raw dairy is acidifying, but pasteurized dairy probably is.

Raw meat is probably not acidic either. But cooked meat made with bone broth won't be acidic because of the minerals in the broth will be alkalizing. It's too bad people are losing the ability to cook properly! I wish they wouldn't blame the food for people's ignorance.

If milk was bad, then the Masai, the isolated Swiss villagers living in the Loetschental Valley, and the Chinese living in the Tuoli province (which Campbell knows about but didn't mention in The China Study) wouldn't have been so healthy consuming tons of it.

Of course, the milk was raw from grass-fed cows.
