I’m not financially ready for a long term relationship, but I worry someone else might get to her before me. She’s in her last year of school.

Contrary to claims, there’s little or no evidence that drinking raw milk provides health benefits, including protection from certain infectious diseases, said Dr. Megin Nichols, the deputy director of the Division of Foodborne, Waterborne and Environmental Diseases at the C. D. C. The Food and Drug Administration says pasteurizing milk kills the virus.

The F. D. A. said in a statement that there are no scientifically proven benefits to drinking raw milk and that “the health risks are clear.”

The sale of raw milk is illegal or heavily restricted in around two dozen states, and the F. D. A. bans the interstate sale of raw milk. But a growing number of states allow producers to sell raw milk directly to consumers.

Eviane Leidig, a postdoctoral researcher at Tilburg University in the Netherlands who researches extremist movements, said the consumption of raw or unprocessed foods had emerged as a rallying cry on parts of the political right. Pasteurized milk, which these groups falsely claim is injected with dangerous chemicals, is referred to as “state-approved milk.”

“The consumption of raw milk, raw meat and raw eggs is a right-wing subculture that has been growing in popularity over the last few years,” Dr. Leidig said.

Todd Callaway, a professor in the department of animal and dairy science at the University of Georgia, said that modern dairy farms had made raw milk safer to drink than it once was, but that “it’s still not a great idea” to drink raw milk, which may still contain dangerous germs. Nearly all store-bought milk is pasteurized.

“I don’t know that a lot of people understand what pasteurization is,” Dr. Callaway said. “It’s just heat treatment. There are no chemicals being pumped in.”

Can we also address that it's FUCKING BIZARRE we drink other animals breast milk? Don't misunderstand. I'm NOT giving up cheese!! But milk itself IS KINDA weird!

A ceiling fan is an efficient and eco-friendly way to regulate the temperature in a room. In summer, it blows air down to keep things cooler. In winter, it circulates hot air (which rises) keeping the room warmer.
