Louis Pasteur is up to about 150 rpm right about now...
Unpasteurized milk contains benign bacteria. For that and other reasons, it is better for your health than pasteurized milk.
BUT. That assumes that you live in the country and have access to a dairy farmer you can TRUST. Otherwise you can very easily get a bacterial infection that is not benign.
It’s impossible to trust factory farms or big milk distributors. There are too many ways for infection to sneak in, and in most cases the supply chain is too long for the milk to be really fresh by the time it reaches the supermarket.
So, unfortunately, the answer is that you can and should drink fresh milk if you have a neighboring farmer or friend whom you can trust.
BELLOWS FALLS — I’ve been there and can’t remember why. Is it a stop on a scenic train ride?
The bakery / cafe / coffee house I used to stop by on my way to work in Lyndonville, Vermont sold raw milk from a local farm - they had it labeled as “not for human consumption”, which I think is some sort of legal disclaimer to allow them to get away with selling unpasturized dairy.
I never bought any...kinda wish I had, just to try it. I wonder if they still sell it.

The human gut contains thousands of bacteria, for most of which their beneficial effect is not well understodd. Lots of digestive issues can be helped with yogurt, buttermilk, maybe unpasteurized milk.
I grew up drinking raw milk from our own cow, Suzie. She gave so much milk we had to drink it to keep it from spoiling, in fact I never drank water. Mother made cottage cheese, whipped cream and butter from it. It was fantastic. I still have a glass of milk every night before I can go to sleep.
When we were in Innsbruck a couple of years ago, we went to a small mountain town called Egls. They had a milk bar, where the farmer basically would give you a good size portion for a Euro. MMM, fresh from the cow.
Insanity!
I wonder if this Dr. supports irradiated milk, I’m guessing not. In any case, adult should seldom drink whole milk, too fatty. Skimmed or 1% has all the nutrients of whole without the fat and few calories.
YIKES!
Back in the late 70’s, my family banded together with two other families and we would alternate driving 15 miles out of town to a dairy to buy raw milk. It had nothing to do with health ... the dairy farmers would let you draw your own out of their holding tank for about half the price charged at the grocery store.
One of the “scare” lines from the report was that two (2) people died last year from diseases contracted through unprocessed dairy. There oughta be a law!
