"Cow's milk can cause blood loss from the intestinal tract, which over time, reduces the body's iron stores. Blood loss may be a reaction to cow's milk proteins."

Cantaloupe surprize
Fruit Smoothie with Cantaloupe, Banana and Dates
A healthful all fruit, non-dairy "milkshake" substitute
(3-4 servings)
Ingredients
1 - Cantaloupe
1 - Banana
6 - Pitted Dates
Preparation:
This recipe is best prepared in a high-powered blender such as a Vita-Mix. If a smaller blender is used, we suggest that the recipe be cut in half for each batch.
It is also best to refrigerate the fruit several hours before preparing the Fruit Smoothie. To make the Smoothie even colder, the Banana could be peeled, cut into pieces and frozen.
Thoroughly wash the Cantaloupe. Cut into sections. Remove the seeds and rind. Place into the blender. Add the peeled Banana and the Pitted Dates. If the fruit is warm, we suggest adding 1or 2 cups of ice. Cover the blender and run at "high" until the Dates are thoroughly blended into the Smoothie (about 1-minute). Serve in a tall glass with a straw, and enjoy. A Fruit Smoothie also makes a great breakfast.
