The stylesheet have been removed. Not necessarily, Raw milk, an increasingly popular health food can be contaminated with bacteria capable of causing food poisoning with serious and sometime fatal complications. Raw milk is milk that has not been pasteurised.
People drink raw milk for many reasons.
These people fear that the heat of pasteurisation process reduces the nutritional value of milk. However, there is no evidence to prove this claimed nutritional superiority of raw milk over pasteurised milk. Usually, after milk is pasteurised it is supplemented with vitamin A and D. While it is true that pasteurisation slightly reduces the level of certain trace vitamins contained in milk, the health of anyone eating a well-balanced diet will be unaffected by this change. In fact, simply boiling milk in a saucepan will destroy more nutrients in milk than are lost in the pasteurisation process . While the alleged health benefits of raw milk are yet to be proven, its health risks are well known.
