Some people prefer to drink raw rather than pasteurized milk.

Why raw milk can be dangerous

Proponents of raw milk say it helps improve gut health, weight loss, and is better digestible for people with low lactose intolerance.

They also believe that pasteurization destroys beneficial bacteria, which reduces the nutritional value of milk.

However, public health officials say raw milk can be hazardous to human health.

It can lead to viral and bacterial infections.

Sometimes the risks of raw milk outweigh the benefits.

For children, you should definitely use only pasteurized milk and dairy products.
