What is raw milk? Raw milk is described as milk that comes from grass-red cows, it’s unprocessed, unedited, and straight from the dairy cow. There are many things in this world that are designed perfect, as they are. God created these things for our benefit, and raw milk is one of those wonderful gifts. If you think about nature, it’s beautiful when left alone to grow and thrive. There is no difference from the foods that we consume. The best foods for us are those that have minimal human interference.
However, many people have been led to believe that raw milk is dangerous and should be avoided, this is in fact not true. If we have learned anything, the past 2 years the CDC and the FDA are not the Holy Grail for health. They have been proven wrong time and time again, and they were wrong about raw milk. Milk does not need to be pasteurized before we consume it, in fact by doing so all the good bacteria that makes milk healthy and good for us gets destroyed during the process of pasteurization.
Raw milk has a wealth of health benefits from boosting our immune systems to helping us with allergies. Loaded with nutrients that are extremely beneficial to the body, such as probiotics, raw facts, vitamin B6, B12, calcium, carotenoids, magnesium, iron, phosphorous, and not to mention omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin K, conjugated linoleic acid and a slew of wonderful gut digestive enzymes.
Here are some benefits:
- Glowing Skin – Omega-3 fatty acid in raw milk along with carotenoids boost your skins appearance by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. This gives your skin a nice glow, reduce blemishes and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Digestion – The many probiotics found in raw milk help to optimize the bacteria balance in your gut. They destroyed these probiotics in the pasteurization process and therefor do not exist in pasteurized milk.
- Weight Loss – Raw milk is heavy in the minerals and nutrients department, especially, calcium, and therefor your body is not missing anything. For that reason alone, this makes it a great complement to any weight loss program.
- Bone Density – Taking it back to the heavy amount of nutrients and minerals found in raw milk. Raw milk is loaded with bone the minerals and nutrients that boost bone density.
- Allergic Reactions – Multiple studies have shown that raw milk optimizes the immune system which actually reduces the severity of allergic reactions throughout the body.
