The thirst that is not worth noting is taking over the Internet.
Raw milk cannot be sold in 20 states for consumption, but even influencers, moms, Robert F. Kennedy Juniors can not get enough. Health risk. Raw milk can contain high -level bacteria, such as Listeria, renal failure and the stock of Escherichia coli, which can cause death, but milk sold at stores leads to a low -heat sterilization process and causes illness. Kill the pathogen.
Last year, a new virus was added to the list of concerns: bird flu (H5N1). According to the US Ministry of Agriculture, as of November 2024, bird flu has spread to 505 dairy cows in 15 states. The rate has then grown in an exponential function, and the current total is a total of 957 cases in 16 states. In January, the first human death of a US bird flu was reported in Louisiana.
Still, raw milk drinks remain. In June 2024, Kennedy said, “I drink only raw milk.” Social media influencers are also promoting millions of followers, including Hannah Neilman, a wives of the wife, known as a ballerina firm.
Among those content creators, there is Courtney Luna, the author of Carnivore in the Kitchen and two children at home.

In recent years, the trust of LUNA doctors and science has been shaking. Kennedy’s campaign, “Return the United States again,” was a very necessary wake -up call for Americans to be in charge of their health. Luna shares a carnivorous diet with more than 200,000 followers and posts a video of drinking milk straight from the breast. However, while the United States is healthy, John A. Lucy, a researcher and food scientist who grew up raw milk on a family farm in Irish, is worried about what is in food. Although it resonated with most of the voters, raw milk does not provide healthy advantages than milk that sterilizes low -temperature alternatives that raw milk says.

What is raw milk?
Raw milk is a milk that has not passed the low -temperature sterilization process.,, According to Meghan Davis, DVM, MPH, and PHD, it is an important food safety step that applies heat to kill microorganisms that can cause illness.。
It is a common belief that the low -temperature sterilization process destroys biological active substances among the defenders of raw milk. This is a chemical substance found in specific foods that promote plants and health, and is studied as a drug for cancer, heart disease, and other diseases. Take potential healthy consumers. However, according to the registered dietitian Jamie Nado, the changes in nutrition after low -temperature sterilization are “very minimal.”
There is also a misunderstanding that the content of bacteria in raw milk is good for your intestines, but those ideas are “distant” and Nado adds. The potential beneficial bacteria in raw milk are not an important factor in human health because they can be seen at a very low level. He adds that low -temperature milk is still holding important nutritious ingredients such as calcium and protein.
Lucy has been observed “hijacking” research by raw milk and raw milk, which has a low ratio of asthma and allergies, but has not actually promoted drinking raw milk, so the possibility of a pathogen. It is said that it promotes many ethical concerns in the state.
Nado says that even if you trust or get it from a farm that you’ve ever bought milk, there is no way to guarantee that raw milk is safe. Some of the harmful pathogens seen in raw milk can cause severe lives, such as Guillan Barre syndrome and hemolytic uremic syndrome, can cause severe life.
“I put it in the same class as raw meat,” Lucy says. “Do you want to get it directly from the store, eat raw, or cook at a certain temperature and confirm that you have killed the potential pathogen in it?”
Lucy adds that the low -temperature sterilization process is “very calm heating” and not boiling or sterilization. “Why big?” He asks.
Nado recommends choosing foods such as yogurt, kefia, kombucha, and instead of provisional supplements.

Some people drink raw milk for bird flu
Lucy grew up on a small dairy farm in Irish, drinking milk from a farm bulk tank. However, when he was seven or eight, his mother was warned by a doctor that raw milk had a pathogen, and she began to boil milk for her children.
“So I know what raw milk is,” he says. “I consumed raw milk, but it has changed.”
But for Luna, theoretical advantage exceeds risk. She purchases milk from Raw Farm USA, a company that tests Escherichia coli and Listeria products before distribution.
“Consumers do not trust FDA,” said Mark Mcafee, Mark Mcafee, CEO and founder of Raw Farm USA. “They discovered that raw milk is telling itself in his intestinal experience.”

According to McAffee, Raw Farm USA sales have increased about 1.5 % year -on -year. He says that there are two full -time microbiologists on the farm that test all raw milk batches and provide data in 20 hours. However, in December, California’s public health authorities detected company milk and dairy bird influenza in both retail and dairy storage and bottling sites, and then spontaneous recalls by Raw Farm LLC. Was announced.
Mcafee called voluntary recalls overreacting. “It’s the latest convenient platform for attacking legal raw milk in California!” He said.
However, Lucy says that the risk of bird flu in raw milk should be a cause of concern. Bird flu is very pathogenic. When a cow is infected with bird flu, the highest level of viruses concentrate on the mammary glands. Lucy compares it with human COVID -19 -Our best viruses were salvia and mucus, but the milk of the cow would be full of viruses.

Raw milk is just a corner of the iceberg
Luna is pleased that Kennedy has brought her concerns to her concerns, and raw milk is just Casp.
“If they care about our health, why aren’t they illegal to cigarettes? Or why does our food have dyes?” Luna adds Luna. “I don’t think they want to be healthy. They want to keep us sick and sell treatments for us.”
“I’m happy that he’s doing what he’s doing,” Luna says. “I think we have a long way in front of us, but I think people are starting to realize that they are important.”
However, Lucy is also a “large fan of fresh food” and encourages people to support local farmers, but there is a final message for those who drink raw milk. It is not worth risk.
“Many don’t trust science anymore,” Lucy says. “But I don’t think this is even science. I think many of them are common sense. This is not in super -processed foods. This is heated to 160 degrees for 15 seconds. Only.
