Very interesting Thelma. The only thing I have to add, from experience, is cows are much less likely to dance on the roof of your car!
Also goats are brush eaters rather than grass eaters, so maybe that is where the difference is? Mine sure loved poison oak and manzanitta.

It won't undo the damage already done (maybe), but it will arrest its progress. Rheumatoid arthritis is particularly difficult to deal with...so you'd better try everything you can. Nettles are supposed to be very good for it as well. Goat's milk (preferably fresh, raw, and from a goat that is allowed to forage on wild weeds and grasses and brush) is very good for many ailments, including allergies, arthritis, auto-immune disorders, asthma, etc. I moved to the country (and ended up taking up goats<VBG>) due to a very bad case of carpal tunnel. Since I couldn't make a living in the city any more, moved out here, got a grade goat for household milk who ate the weeds around our house and ran free. Lo and behold, three weeks after she came into milk that first year my carpal tunnel disappeared and has not reappeared in four years. The carpal tunnel was bad enough that I was drinking coffee through a straw and asking my kid to do everything, including chopping veggies and hauling water from the well. I have since learned that pediatricians prescribe goats' milk for crack babies and children with asthma, etc. Milk from a CAE (goat virus--doesn't affect humans) infected goat may be a preventative to HIV infection. Why does this happen? A cow dairy neighbor thinks that wild vegetation has the proper mix of omega-3 and omega-6 and that seed created by humans has these ratios changed to increase shelf life which has actually contributed to all the arthritis, allergies, auto-immune disorders, etc. But this doesn't explain why cow milk doesn't help arthritis. I do know that goat milk is naturally homogenized and, actually is much healthier than cow milk, if you analyze it nutritionally. Not to mention goats have a lot more personality than cows... So find someone with a goat. Or get one or two yourself. But be forewarned: They are very addictive. (Incidentally, if you have a goat or two, you can kiss your lawnmower goodbye. And stop worrying about weeds--that's their preferred food.) I would not buy goat milk at the store. Ideally, you want to drink it raw and as fresh as possible. Plus keeping a goat will cost you around $80 a year; goat milk sells for between $10-20 per gallon in the stores and $5-10 per gallon straight off the farm. So go git your own goat!
