Re:Unpasteurized Milk Poses Health Risks Without Benefits, Study Shows

[Guest guest]

This study in not accurate...Raw Milk has many, many benefits...The Raw Dairy

group has been discussing this very study and how raw milk does help many

people...Please do not believe this study...

[Guest guest]

This is a personal choice and for me, it's not worth the risk. My health is

compromised and I

would rather be safe than sorry.

This is just my 2 cents

Well it IS a matter of choice of course!!! Problem is that “vested

interests” do skew the research as we all know only too well LOL! I’m

speaking of the dairy industry now…but, and it’s a big but, I would not

drink unpasteurized milk unless I had personally inspected the farm it came

from, read certifications of safety etc. It would have to be an udderly

(sorry, couldn’t resist) sterile operation, don’t know too much about it

really.

It seems to me that there are a zillion different healing diets out there,

many of them mutually exclusive! You know, raw foods/juicing, the Sally

Fallon stuff which is so different, the blood type diet, dairy, no dairy,

pasteurized vs .un etc., and on and on and on. We each have to find out what

works best for us individually. Aylwin xox

Think about it.....humans have had dairy  for thousands of years, goats, cows,

camels ect.

Storage is a modern problem which is why we now have pasturization so it can be

kept in a refrigerator instead of being drank the same day it was milked.

If non pasturized milk was that bad we all would have died off thousands of

years ago.

Who has room for a cow or goat anymore.......

[Guest guest]

Yes, but those thousands of years of humans you speak of came BEFORE

immunizations, antibiotics, and disinfectants weakened our immune systems,

and weak babies simply died in “the old days”. Anyway, there are no records

of death rates due to milk contamination through history - ‘tis a huge

assumption you are making! So, it is not a fair comparison to today’s

humans, nor to the present, much more virulent strains of many common

microorganisms, due also to the above factors, as well as massive

environmental disruption of ecosystems. I do hear you about the storage

issue though! Note that I am not expressing any opinion about pasteurized

vs. non, or dairy-free diets; as I’ve said, there are many diet theories out

there, and we each have to find what works best for us. Aylwin xox

Just proves Darwin is right.  Since I started eating more raw foods I am doing

much better.

[Guest guest]

And yet, many of us with ME literally do not have the intestinal fortitude

to properly digest and assimilate many raw foods. For me, the veg especially

are like poison to my system, and I do not digest them at all. The proper

type of cooking does make some nutritional components more bioavailable, not

less. I think even cave-people had cooking-pots and fire! Aylwin xox
