What is wrong with raw milk?
According to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), from 1993 through 2012, there were 127 outbreaks
linked to raw milk or raw milk products like ice cream, soft cheese, or yogurt. These have
resulted in more than 2000 illness cases and 150 hospitalizations. The data may
be sufficient enough for you to get an idea of what damage raw milk can cause
to you or to your loved ones, especially children. You can even develop
symptoms that are chronic, severe and even life threatening. Most commonly, bacteria in raw milk can cause
vomiting, diarrhea (sometimes bloody), abdominal pain, fever, headache and body
aches.
Figures & Facts
The average human body contains around 39 trillion individual bacterial cells – more than the total
number of human cells in the body. We need a mixture of microorganisms, perhaps
commonly known as “good” bacteria, to fight off the bad ones.
Since microorganisms are found everywhere, it’s perhaps
unsurprising that they are commonplace on the average dairy farm. One has to be
careful regarding consumption of milk as it is the most crucial aspect of any
family’s nutritional diet. Let your children enjoy the good value that milk
provides but that doesn’t lie in raw milk.
The solution to this is now available in form of
pasteurized bottled milk which are
available everywhere now. There are several farms which provide door to door
services. You can simply order your milk online and get it
delivered at your doorstep with perfect quality pasteurized milk.
