What are the health benefits of raw milk?
Raw milk naturally has a lot of healthy enzymes and vitamins in it. Due to government regulation, milk sold in stores is heated (pasteurized) to kill potential pathogens but unfortunately “Many nutrients and immune-enhancing components are destroyed by exposure to high heat and the temperatures used during pasteurization. Vitamin A (among many other vitamins) is degraded, proteins and enzymes are denatured, and immunoglobulins are destroyed…” according to the article “The Shame of Pasteurization” realmilk.com/the-shame-of-pasteurization. If you’re interested to learn more about the health benefits of raw milk, the website realmilk.com has another article called “Milk As Medicine” that dives into more details realmilk.com/milk-as-medicine
How will the glass bottle deposit work?
The first time you buy milk you will pay a bottle deposit of $3/bottle. After that you will simply return your rinsed bottles and trade them for more milk. The only reason you’d need to pay more for bottles is if you’re taking more bottles of milk than rinsed bottles you are returning.
Will you be testing the milk to check for bacteria growth?
Yes, we will be testing the milk periodically. The test will check for pathogens in the milk and give a measure of the cows' health.
