BESIEGED health and lifestyle blogger Belle Gibson supported the drinking of raw cow’s milk and even discussed investing in a co-op, it has been revealed.

Social media images showing her downing a pint of beer and swigging champagne from the bottle also indicate the 23-year-old has not always lived the clean and healthy lifestyle she famously promotes.

As well as encouraging her social media followers to avoid vaccinating their children and backing medical cannabis, Ms Gibson also supported the practice of drinking raw cow’s milk.

The Victorian coroner is investigating the death of a young child who died after drinking raw cow’s milk late last year.

The State Government has also moved to further restrict sales of “cosmetic milk” after another four children become seriously ill after consuming the product.

But Ms Gibson posted several images to her followers warning them of the dangers of drinking pasteurised milk.

The Melbourne mega blogger, using the private Instagram handle of @onlybelle, instead encouraged her followers to go #vegan, #notmilk, #rawmilk or #nomilk.

Ms Gibson responded to another image showing a fridge of raw milk products with a poster saying “Raw Milk is Not for Human Consumption!” with “F*** the government. Hahaha.”

The Elwood resident even floated the idea of investing in bath milk and starting a co-op with one friend.

The award-winning Whole Pantry app, and cooking books, were created on the back of Ms Gibson’s response to overcoming terminal brain cancer with a healthy lifestyle.

Her amazing story of survival has since been brought into question after she admitted that her claim of suffering multiple life-threatening cancers may be false.

Ms Gibson stands by her claim that she used alternative therapies to survive an aggressive malignant brain tumour for five years without conventional treatment.

However, it seems at least one of her commercial partners may be losing patience with her. Ms Gibson’s book publisher, Penguin, said it was considering its commercial relationship with her.
