Sheep Centre - Sheep Dairy Products


Sheeps Milk
Sheeps Milk is both nutritious and delicious. The Milk has a rich, bland, slightly sweet taste. It is much higher in total solids
than either cow or goat milk and contains up to twice as many of the minerals like calcium, phosphorus and zinc and the all important B group Vitamins. It is sold both fresh and frozen in pint or 500 ml. packs and keeps well for at least 4 months in a deep freeze.

ALLERGIC TO COW OR GOAT MILK?
Unless you are lactose intolerant sheep milk is the ideal alternative. Such allergies cause a wide range of often undiagnosed problems. Being told to come off 'Dairy Products' usually only means Cow milk products NOT sheep or goats. Calcium deficiency can occur if all milk products are eliminated from the diet.

CAN'T EAT CHEESE?
Try genuine sheep milk cheese. Many people are able to enjoy the delights of eating cheese after years of privation.

CAN'T SLEEP?
A cup of hot sheep milk before retiring aids a peaceful nights rest. This has been shown to be particularly beneficial for children and elderly people with a bed-wetting problem

ASTHMA, ECZEMA AND SKIN PROBLEMS
Books written for the Asthma Research Council and the National Eczema Society recommend a change to sheep and goat products to aid the treatment of these and other related problems. Sheep milk is especially good as it is high in both Calcium and Zinc.

YOUR PETS
Valuable pedigree puppies have been successfully reared on sheep milk, it being the nearest alternative to that of the bitch herself. Cats love it!
