		Studies have shown that before heating, milk is a living food rich in colloidal minerals and enzymes necessary for the absorption and utilization of the sugars, fats and minerals in the milk.

	My Observations and Opinions on Raw Dairy Foods

	Is raw milk good for my family?
		Unpasteurized milk is the beverage of choice for young calves and kid goats, but choosing it for your family could be a "raw deal," say nutritionists at the USDA/ARS Children's Nutrition Research Center at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
		There is no scientific evidence that the living organisms in raw goat's or cow's milk make it nutritionally superior to pasteurized milk or can enhance human resistance to disease.
		So for safety's sake, stick with pasteurized milk products, which are heated to kill disease-causing organisms, particularly when feeding young children, pregnant women, the chronically ill, and the elderly, who are all at risk for serious food-borne illness.
