I just heard an interesting podcast from Dr. Paul Saladino, and among many topics, he discussed raw milk and why it is better than pasteurized milk. Why the benefit outweighs the risk. It needs more consideration. Is raw milk was legal to purchase in California direct from farmers?

Thanks for sharing that; I'll take a listen. It still seems like the biggest benefits are for children but I wouldn't doubt the enzymes would help adults too. When I got pregnant with Olive, we were traveling throughout Europe, eating raw milk cheeses everywhere we went, during her first four months in utero. That's railed against here, but there it's recommended. And look at her! Also... It is legal for purchase in the state of CA.

VERY thoughtful column and, yes, I hope data continues to be collected about this public health issue.
