California is teeming with black-market dairies, propped up by consumer demand fueled by misinformation. With evidence against one raw goat milk farm, regulators could have sought punitive action. But that’s not what happened.
Why did these idiots think that raw milk would have health benefits. All pasteurization does is heat it up, it has the exact same nutritional value both before and after. There is no scientific basis for believing there of health benefits.
Pasteurization kills bacteria by being hot enough long enough to destroy proteins that are essential for them to live. I’d bet that there are some other proteins in milk that get damaged at the same or lower temps than the pasteurization process, but I highly doubt that those proteins are miracle proteins that boost your immune system and prevent autism and make you shit better.
It’s a lot of words to say that there is probably some reduction in the nutrition of the milk, but it’s negligible compared to the benefit of not killing your child.
