The udder truth
Raw milk really is a wonder tonic, say devotees, who meet secretly to buy it and swear it reverses chronic diseases. But is it safe to drink? The official word: No.
By Hannah Wallace [2007-01-19]

  • More Antidotal Evidence

    I grew up on a small dairy farm, and only drank raw milk (and lots of it) as a child.

    Today at the age of 42 I have ZERO cavities, plus an immune system that ensures I very rarely get sick. I haven't drank raw milk in about 20 years, but I have always been convinced that the exposure to the bacteria in raw milk helped build the immune system I have today.

    Is it safe to drink? There is no doubt it goes bad a lot faster than pasteurized milk, I remember throwing up over bad milk a couple times a child, but as long as it is produced in a clean environment and is refridgerated, you should have no problem.

    Go and Enjoy!
