Way to go, brother. You know the truth, and I know it too. I grew up on raw milk and wouldn't have it any other way. May the Force of Intelligence Nature always be with you, you all, us all.
Well ,listen to this Mark AcAfee, you need to get the milk OUT of plastic containers and back into glass containers. New findings will horrify readers, about how the plastic used in those containers is extremely toxic, and leaches into the food and drinks, especially drinks like milk. (Look it up) Everyone, this is a priority, make your local dairy aware that you will buy a goat if they wont give you a glass option.
The problem is those statistics don't differentiate between raw milk meant for pasteurization, which allows a far greater amount of bacteria prior to being pasteurized, and raw milk produced in accordance with regulations where it's legal.
A couple of comments I've read elsewhere also seem indicate that health authorities will look for no other explanation for food poisoning if it is know that raw milk was consumed.
@leslie604 So what are the massive benefits from drinking raw milk over safer milk? What evidence do they have? What statistics do they have that raw milk is safer then "processed" milk?
@BaneOfFreeSpeech There can be a number of reasons why one would choose raw: pastured vs factory farmed animals, A1 vs A2, taste, support for small local farms, anecdotal evidence of health benefits (check out what Mark Gebhart MD has to say about raw).
Would love to see studies on the subject, but someone has to fund and do the research. Lack of research evidence does not prove there is no benefit to raw.
Want safe, go with powdered, still good after a yr at room temp. Try that with pasteruized
@BaneOfFreeSpeech Took a look and zzz, just kidding. No differentiation between raw milk meant for pasteurization in food poisoning stats. Nutrition info doesn't take into account raw not meant for pasteurization is grass fed; different diet=different nutrition levels. Regulate and let people choose. There are far bigger food safety issues, government reaction to raw milk looks hysterical (eg Rawsome food raid). Check out Project Censored report from 2000 #19, maybe you won't want to drink milk
@leslie604 I don't think regulate and let people choose is the best option for most things and this is one of them. Read the little report never said anything about a peer reviewed document confirming their hypothesis. The Dr Derek Girman only has 5 peer reviewed articles all about animal behavior and phylogeny...So this makes him an expert on milk borne illness? i found a peer reviewed article giving proof MB does die in current pasteurization. ill PM the link. anyone else interested PM me
I wonder if Mark McAffe uses a three breed rotation on his cows for better health/longevity and naturally polled bulls on his breeding stock to improve animal welfare? Those should really impact his bottom line if his consumers care about such things.
Want raw milk? Go call a lawyer or go buy your own cow! We used to sell raw milk years ago until everyone got sue happy. Raw milk is a niche market and will always be that way. Most of the organic/raw food nuthuggers are quite ignorant of food borne sickness.
A guy like this is so rare nowadays. He's genuine, he wants to heal people, I'm really sad knowing people like him are becoming extinct and selling out.
There is a reason why "the health-organisations" around the world fight raw milk so much. I had cnadida 2 years ago, dran raw milk and it was gone. But it is difficult for me to get. Now I have been underweight for a long time. I bought raw milk again, and for 2 days drank 1 litre a day, I straight away put on weight. Nothing could help me to put on weight before. the weight seems to immediately balances out, everything heals.
Our government wants us to be sick, then we can go to their doctors and be prescribed their dangerous drugs. They win twice, maximum dollar value extracted from each of us. When will Lord Jesus return?
I love Raw Milk! For 2 years, I had to avoid everything with milk in it, even if it was made on equipment that handles milk. Then I discovered raw milk and having been drinking it ever since! I love it soo much =D
I went to your lecture last year and I'm glad that I did! Now, I feel so much better when I drink raw milk. My pain control problems have gone away and I'm rarely ever sick! I had chronic dry flaking and cracking skin since I was a child. And now I don't have to apply lotions or oils to my skin after a shower, because I don't need it anymore! Thank you Raw Milk Guy!
I have not been able to find any raw milk, anywhere, for the life of me. The closest thing I've found is non homogenized milk, which I don't believe is the same.
It's funny humans are the only animal that drink milk when they're grown ups, and not just that, but also we're the only animal that feeds from the milk of another species. It's even funnier how some people think it'd be gross to drink their mothers' milk again or to drink other animals' milk (mice for example).
Cow milk was made for cows and not humans. It's bad for our health. When you drink cow milk, no matter what kind it is, you're stealing food for babies.
@Cernunnas, I disagree. Do more research on cow's milk, you'll be amazed at what you find. If I'm wrong, I think that the cow calf only needs to feed from the mother in the first 24 hours of birth, at some point, they then, eat grass.
If the raw milk can provide some help for someone with a disease or other ailment, and it is the only thing that can help them - then by all means drink it, absolutely. HOWEVER, for a normal, healthy person, with no immediate medical need for it, drinking raw milk is a mistake. It is dangerous, there are a number of serious bacterial diseases transmitted through raw milk. Is pasteurized milk as nutritionally impressive? No. It is safer though.
@Bidon45, I have read that milk only becomes contaminated when the cow is fed contaminated food or food that is not natural grass. Cows need grass to produce milk, with all of the friendly bacteria and all, that is SUPER healthy. Pasteurized milk guarantees milk production and profit for dairy farmers because the cow can be in any condition to produce milk, contaminated or not. They can feed their dairy cows wheat, or not let them graze freely and keep them locked up without sun until death.
I am lucky to have Eastleigh Farm in my town where they sell raw milk. Raw milk is delicious, THE SWEETEST milk there ever is, and to me no other food is better. I hope the day comes when not only Mass. grocery stores have it but we can come to farms and have farmers squirt milk directly into our mouths by aiming the udders right. GO RAW MILK!
BRAVO! Good job. If we only could learn to vote with our money ! We lost the fight in Canada to drink raw milk. But we buy it in Bellingham anyway. :)) Anyone who reads, thinks and can reason, knows the FDA is not humanities friend.
I grown up on raw milk and I'm healthy, beautiful and still can think. What makes me sick is how this government is brainwashing people, it is hard to believe it.
And by the way, you rebut as though I'm an activist. Not so. I am from a dairy family. I drink milk from the grocery store, as does my family. They have an immaculately clean operation which hosts bus tours occasionally. But, bacteria doesn't care about how trimmed we keep the lawn or how pretty we keep the cow's tails.
The health benefits argument is moot. There is no safe way to mass distribute raw milk. You're not nuts, you're just a victim of perpetual misinformation. Quit contributing.
You are right, there is no safe way to distribute raw milk to 300 million people. This doesn't mean raw milk itself is unsafe. The problem isn't with the raw milk , it is with our system of storing(usually starting with the bulk tanks on the dairy and on the trucks) and delivering to the masses, but this cannot be construed in such a way as to define raw milk as inherently unsafe.
I believe we take as much or greater chance with the consumption of raw veggies or improper handling and cooking of meat such as chicken and pork, and I advocate letting the consumer decide for himself what he wishes to consume,e.g. raw milk.
By the way, I drink raw milk almost everyday, and I eat very little "uncooked" vegetables. If you live on a dairy you probaby garden as well, and if you do, you know what kind of crap can get on your raw veggies. Now consider mass produced veggies hand picked by people forced to do their daily business out in the fields.
You are fighting the wrong fight as far as I'm concerned. This to me is more about freedom to choose.
Want just one reason alone not to drink raw milk? Most farms have cats. Few of these cats get proper shots. Cats can transmit rabies to herds (among other illnesses). Rabies can be transmitted through milk, if not pasteurized. Cows may give milk for many days or more before symptoms are obvious and illness is diagnosed. 100 % of people who develop rabies symptoms die.
Every raw milk advocate follow anecdotal evidence. To reject it, we just need to educate. Don't kill your kids.
You're looking for an anecdote, which is your biggest flaw. Your whole science is based on anecdotes. Change your thinking. Any mammal can transmit rabies.
Has their been rabies in milk delivered to the processors? Could be, but we'd never know. That's the beauty of pasteurization. If the consumer drank it raw, then we'd know for sure.
Because it's a non-obvious source, the victim would not seek preventative medicine... AND THEY WOULD DIE.
Haa ha! After reading what you have written here it is obvious we have a case of the pot calling the kettle black, as you are the king of those who use "anecdotal evidence" You are a joke, a rather smart one, but still a joke.
I've rethought the whole thing. Everybody who has researched the topic and decides to feed raw milk to their families should go ahead and do so. If we can't educate the population, we'll cleanse it instead. Nature always has a way of balancing itself.
More people die each year in the USA of food poisoning from eating raw vegetables. Why aren't you out there campaigning against these products?
Again citing the CDC, Salmonella causes approximately 4,000 deaths per year and 76 million illnesses, mostly from Peanut butter,spinach,tomatoes and lettuce. I agree with your last sentence, and I must say it may be vegetarians who get "balanced out" in the end.
Your comparison is not fair. Incidence of milk illness is very low because of rules and regulations. If we flipped a magic switch and became a raw milk culture tomorrow, the incidence of illness would be staggering. People read up on this topic and are overwhelmed by misinformation from arm-chair lobbyists.
I pick rabies as one example out of many. You're the 'before shot' poster person. Promise to continue lobbying if your child dies from e-coli?
So, why aren't you out campaigning against raw vegetables? I guess you forgot to answer this simple question. Now as to your magic switch comment, you have now trancended from anecdotal evidence to delivering true anecdotes!
My favorite movie is Fantastic Mr. Fox, directed by Wes Anderson. I love the stop motion animation and the visual part of this movie the best. To top it off, the movie is hilarious and has extremely well written dialogue.

the damn FDA are screwing people over by not letting us buy raw milk... its so hard finding decent food products these days, now everything is chemically made and to actually get organic foods i have to spend a ridiculous amount of money
My family is in dairy, so I'd love to tell you that direct-to-consumer is a super idea, but it is not. Whether or not you believe that pasteurization kills good bacteria, it does kill e-coli. Cows udders lay in manure and filth all day long. They get a superficial cleaning before the milker machines are connected. The cleansing of the milk is done by the pasteurizer. This is an emotional, ridiculous issue being sold to people that don't know better. Raw milk can kill you.
You want to get angry with the FDA, take on Bovine Growth Hormone and leave the processors alone. The processors are killing bacteria which makes your mild fresh and safe to drink.
This is a 'illogical' as insisting that the cities quit killing the bacteria in the water supply before they deliver it to your tap.
And, on the issue of eating chemicals... The consumer has the choice at the supermarket. Read ingredients and nutrition labels.
Right! And at the same time, they're all for toxic tap water consumption! Everyone, just do your homework, and get what ya need that will increase or maintain your good health. Its all up to you, period!
If you get the numbers right (volume consumed, calcium absorption from milk), it seems pretty odd to hear that milk is a great source of calcium for the grown ups.
Support organic guys and more importantly respect green products.
Raw unpasteurized, unhomogenized grass fed happy cow milk is unquestionably the right choice for kids.
There are quite a few articles suggesting that if you do not drink milk regularly or give up drinking when you get older, your lactose enzyme production reduces drastically and for the aged, milk is harder to digest too so is yoghurt a much better alternative. Also some argue that we are the only ones besides other mammals that don't rely on (mother's) milk anymore after a certain age.
You can still get raw milk in most states like in health food stores, just for legal reasons, they have to write on the bottle " for feeding pets only" not for human consumption.... something like that is written on the bottle. I tried it this week and it taste so good. I thought organic tasted better than regular store bought milk, and now Raw organic grass fed taste even better than that. You gotta try it, not just for all the health benefits, but the great taste too.
I'm lucky enough to drink raw milk everyday. It tastes like "regular" milk but because it is Raw, I believe it tastes better because I know I doing my body a favor. My doctor actually recommended that I start drinking organic whole milk to boost my immune system...and it has worked. Before I started drinking raw milk I had the flu 3 times in one year. I haven't been sick since I started drinking raw milk
If you want a good book about Real Food (including grassfed beef and raw milk) read Nina Planck's "Real Food". She quotes innumerable scientific studies, etc. I am a customer of Organic Pastures and I LOVE them. After years of drinking pathetic industrial skim milk I had no problem switching to raw whole milk. It tastes great and is incredibly filling and satisfying. I have lost weight and feel great. I thank god Organic Pastures is available to me here in California.
It's one thing to preach organic and it's another thing to pollute our air while your company is delivering it - you are irresponsible as a business owner and should be ashamed of yourself for driving around Los Angeles with a polluting vehicle - the worse black smoke I have ever seen - and your driver says 'oh, we'll look into it....' Proactive maintenance... or why not open your eyes and see the black soot on the back of your truck... that's sign #1 - video proof of this is on YouTube SHAME
I'm bummed. My last pick up of raw milk had such a strong scent of Chives (onions). My daughters won't drink it now. I am trying to find another pick up spot.. but it's soooo far away. Anyone have any cures for STINKY MILK? lol
I wonder if pathogens actually come from unclean cow udder. I was visiting a farm where a lady was cleaning a cow and I thought I saw manure stuck in her tail, hoof and parts of its udder. Now after cleaning and the milk extractor is clean, I guess it is ok. Please tell us how you really do it.
I love my raw milk!! I WILL NEVER BUY CONVENTIONAL MILK EVER EVER EVER AGAIN! even if it cost 3 or 4 times as much... Id rather have wholesome food then some new sneakers.
So people that drink raw milk from healthy cows (grass fed, no drugs, no injections, fresh air, farm where the cows have lots of room to move around) don't get sick and people that drink pasteurized milk get sick and have many other problems. AND THE GOVERNMENT HAS MADE RAW MILK ILLEGAL IN CANADA.....this needs to change NOW, before people in the government start getting shot by civilians
This guy is full of shit. And if most of you tasted raw milk you would probably spit it out. It's not pasteurized either, which means bacteria. That might be why they won't ship it to stores. Beneficial? Maybe, or maybe not since our bodies aren't used to it.
This guy is the type of person or company, Michael Pollan is warning us when it comes to the industrialisation of organic farming.
This guy does not talk like a farmer, but like a salesman, ok fine so be it, but he should stop pretending that he is a farmer.
I would like this guy to debate Joel Salatin, Salatin would probably have harsher comments, but then again he knows this better than I since he is a farmer.
A major treat for me is to finally make it to the nearest health food store and get my O.P. raw milk, which I begin drinking as soon as I get the half-gallons.
I love raw milk.
I am so sorry I was raised drinking pasteurized milk.
I very much wish my mother had understood how raw milk has nutritional value and digestibility far superior to pasteurized milk.
actually i drink raw milk everyday and its just fine... i rarely get sick and if I do its from my job (lots of chemicals involved in making monsters). also if you believe everything the FDA tells you... you're dead from cancer... the FDA & Dept of Ag are now ran by the lovely folks at Monsanto. they make roundup & have botched all their findings on bovine hormones & this lovely sweetener called Aspartame (which is insecticide). look up the findings from the European & Canadian FDAs... good luck!
actually you're a moron and I gave you links... you have no clue as to what is going on in the world of ag or fda or anything that is important in general...
The links you gave me did not support your statement that "in a study milk was found to be more puss, hormones, & antibiotics then actual milk..."
Of course these things are present in milk, but not in meaningful amounts. The effect is cumulative, it does not make up a large percentage of the milk, and certainly not more than actual milk. The same can be said for the water you drink, which has been shown to be full of pharmaceuticals.
It's quite amazing how little the general public knows about milk, a lot of half-truths and scare tactics. People don't seem to understand how environmental contaminants can come in contact and how regulations are established to prevent antibiotics in milk. (Milk is withheld from the market until it is free of the antibiotic or below an established safe level.)
Sadly most people are fairly closed minded. Granted I can justify a lot of my info with reliable sources and not just online
I do my own research.The burden of proof lies with the person making the claim. Stop making alarmist claims you can't back up, or just kill yourself. Problem solved.
*flutters over to the bridge you live under... drops off not & quickly esccapes*

There is this thing called GOOGLE SEARCH & PUBLIC RECORD found at your local LIBRARY.Look up rBHG,Health Canada findings rBHG,Cancer Prevention Coalition, & MONSANTO.
The world is full of opinions & facts. You have no facts & only opinions.
PS This letter was certified by the Law Offices of PB&J. Bat Jelly will no longer bother to half ass read your nonsense nor reply. It is not worth the time nor effort from her busy reality to argue with youtube trolls.
Please go back under your bridge... bathe in mud while gripping your gentiles & mumbling to yourself.
Sometimes people don't gain weight because of parasites. I am not saying you have them. But it is a consideration. I hold weight on and right now I am going on a cleanse. I take specific herbs and raw cows milk. It's working so well! BALANCE is where it's at!
I put this video on my blog today (TheSkinnyOnline) People need to know the truth. Too much misinformation out there has made people afraid of dairy products and fat! It's a shame. Isn't raw milk what helped Heidi heal her cousin Clara??
I ALWAYS think of the story Heidi! remember how the boy -i forget his name- would drink directly from the goats, but he brought a bowl up so that the girls who weren't accustomed could drink milk too. :)
I grew up on a dairy farm and my bones and muscles r ten times stronger than other people....Thanks to Fresh Milk from the tit i can walk down the street knowing i can kick the shit outta anyone i see
And this term "raw" for milk is so funny, U kno some Cityidiot came up with that one
Wtf u think theyve been drinkin for The last thousand years.... Today in some poor counrties they literally put their mouth on the cow and suck it out
I am all for Raw milk. They don't sell it in my state. I want a farm. I agree though that fresh foods of this nature is best left to the locals. As soon as it goes mass production is when we have issues of disease. No thanks. Keep it small, and BUY LOCAL!
Supporting Farmers are important. Especially the ones that don't want to be forced to buy Genetically Modified Seeds and Animals! 70% of the ingredients in the market are Genetically Modified! Just the other day Obama appointed Tom Vilsack as the head of Agriculture. This guy is a Monosanto guy! (a biotech guy) a gentically modified organsim guy! to be the head of the department of agriculture. So everyone get active or get out of the way.
I'm 70 years old, I grew up on raw milk. I can't stand the taste of this junk the supermarket is trying to sell me where everything good in milk is killed.
Health Canada has the right to point out to me that it may be dangerous to drink raw milk like they do about cigarettes and alcohol. Health Canada has no right to tell me what I can drink or eat. That decision can only be made by me and not by some idiot overpaid bureaucrat.
It's because the dairy industry/ suprmarkets would lose an awful lot of profits and purchasing power if people switched to raw milk directly from farms. Otherwise there's no actual reason to ban it, people have been drinking the stuff for thousands of years. Some claim that raw milk prior to the ban was deliberately contaminated with pathogens to justify banning it.
I cant find raw milk anywhere in NY. Every place i call tells me they cant ship it over state lines because the FDA says it is illegal. What the fuck? Its not a shipment of cocaine, its fucking milk. Who the hell are the motherfucking FDA to tell me what I put in my body. I swear i want to beat the shit out of anyone who puts a restriction on MY RIGHT to consume REAL FOOD.
It's funny how they restrict the sale of health promoting food, yet have no problem selling alcohol, tobacco products and contaminated fish all of which are basically slow poisons. The FDA are a fucking joke, I can't believe people actually believe any of their bullshit.
I completely agree. The FDA sticks its big nose where it doesn't belong. They have way too much power over food. They are greedy bastards. Why can i buy cigarettes which kill over 400,000 people per year in the US at any supermarket, convenience store, local mart, drug store and deli, yet finding raw milk is nearly impossible to obtain. (How many deaths from raw milk? my guess is ZERO) Im glad there are intelligent people out there like you who appreciate the value of raw milk.
Raw milk production is best kept in the production of small farmers who can keep an eye on the entire production process. It's much easier to keep everything clean, etc.
It's no problem that it isn't on the shelves of grocery chains. It shouldn't be.
This jackass said on an ABC video that raw milk cures Allergies and Asthma. Hmmmmm, never cured mine. Might as well see say that it gives you a 5 hour boner too, he might make more money selling his product thru lies and deceit. I don't know what is worse, him telling lies to sell his product or those idiots that believe everything that he says. I would love and 1 on 1 debate with this guy. I would bury him with facts!
Every one is different. I know more than enough people who have been drinking the stuff for a long long time. They are fine. I've also met some people who it doesn't sit well with. *shrugs*
It is all anecdotal and not scientific. Milk is a healthy food source that helps the body like any other healthly food. Milk doesn't have any magical powers.
I've drankl gallons of raw milk from several farmers over the past5/6 years and, have never gotten sick. That's enough evidence for me, especially after the toured the farmers' facilities. Very clean, with stainless steel all over the place.
I've drank it the past 35 years or more. Has it ever made me sick? I don't know. If you ever get sick eating/drinking anything raw then you will most likely get a bad case of the green apple splatters if you are a normal healthy child/adult.
Some very rich, very evil, and very greedy people don't want the rest to be healthy which is why they are constantly putting crap in our water and destroying our food. How stupid are we that we allow someone to tell us what we can eat? If we are to break from this cycle first thing we need to do is throw out the brainwashing programming television and teach our children to think for themselves. Americas strength is being destroyed by creating dumbed down, unhealty, complacent people.
I was visiting my sister in Armenia and was introduced to Tibetan milk fungus. She was using just regular milk. When I came home I tried it too, But nothing was coming out even from the Organic Milk. Then I 've got RAW MILK and what a difference!
Now I have perfect natural KEFIR -delicious and healthy.
seriously Canada needs to start changing their laws on raw milk. I have been looking for a source for months now and it's just too difficult here. I am considering moving to California from Montreal just so i can drink raw milk and fresh organic local fruits and veggies :)
Hi Mark - you are doing good work, keep it up. We have the same challenge here in Ontario. Michael Schmidt from the Glencolton Farm in Durham, Ontario and his 150 families who have been drinking raw milk for more than 12 years are challenged by the Ontario government. I hope that we in Ontario can have access to raw milk soon....
He's right. What an inspirational guy with a clear, true message. I appreciate his drive & his vision. We need more like him! (But, i wish he didn't drink out of plastic water bottles!)
Google "California raw milk ban" and read the article from the SF Chronicles about Organic Pastures. Mark McAffee's safe product was pulled 3 times. The one time Listeria was the culprit. Of course he says it came from somewhere else.
When I went to France and England, I found that their dairy products were the best I ever had. Come to find out later, they don't pasteurize the crap out of their stuff like we do. I think the main reason you dont see raw milk products here in America is because too many corporations have their greedy paws in the pot, drug companies for one. I think we are over pasteurized at this point.
Flouride is another item that is being banned in progressive European countries because they realize the danger. There are other, less toxic means of sterilizing water (ionization for one). All you have to do is follow the money. I never understood the logic of medicating entire populations (flouride) because of a single ailment. What's next? Statin drugs in the water so that no one will have heart attacks?
Awesome video Mark! Keep up the good work of helping people heal. It's so ironic that in this free country, it's illegal to buy raw milk. I'm lucky I live in Colorado, where we got a law passed several years ago allowing cow shares programs. I'm thrilled to be drinking fresh, *real* milk again, and to be supporting a local farmer!
WOW, REALLY!?!?! I didn't know that! I am a supporter of his anyways, but now this too? Damn I wish he would become our next president! He's got my vote all of the way!!!! Thanks for the heads up "Tyler0206"!
And raw milk must be safe! If it was even 1/8 as dangerous as FDA says it is, you would expect to see more than zero people get sick over the 7 year history of OPDC, or the 70+ year history of Claravale, not even counting the countless other places in the world that drink raw milk for the last however many thousand years. I'm appealing to people's own ability to think critically. Does it really make sense what politicians and industry are saying? I think not.
I live in Canada and have never purchased raw milk from Organic Pastures, but I really hope the law gets overturned on this one. People have a right to consume nutritious food untainted by political corruption and corporate greed. I hope to visit Organic Pastures sometime and try some of their milk. I'd love to meet Mike. It's hard to find a passionate person nowadays with integrity and pride who cares more about delivering an excellent product than profit.
If you love raw milk in California, we need you!! Next Wednesday, January 16th 2008, at 12noon, hearings will be held at the Capitol Bldg. in Sacramento to determine the fate of our ability to buy raw milk. Your voice is VITAL. The powers that be need to hear from those of us who love it, appreciate it, and know it for what it is!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yeah well he already lost it doesnt matter..Its even better because hes a puppet just like the rest of them..Oh yes go Back to Gold Standard, one of the stupiest things to do
Yes, that's a great video. I sent Alnold a letter voicing my disproval. I suggest you do the same. You can find all the info at the Organic Pastures website.
The best milk! Great taste! Excellent for digestion!
Great cream! Fantastic for desserts!
US consumers need to take advantage of their right to choose. Consumer choice, capitalism, and democracy go hand in hand. Having the government outlaw raw milk consumption is fascism or communism. What a farce!
I grew up in Europe on Raw milk!! I have never had problem with milk...til I moved to the home of the pasturized floks in the US! I couldn't handle the milk here..and got so excited to have rawmilk again! Now these smarties want to take the only live milk that is on the shelves??? That is what I call freedom!
But damn! typing on a darn laptop does not do well for my spelling but then again, somethimes i don't give a shit. Maybe thats another reason i don't get sick. I stress out about BS
We are so happpppppppy that OP is back on the Market in Sonoma County! Fuck the FEDS/FDA!

If you all want a scientists point of view on this...Watch C0nc0rdance's video about raw milk...summing the video up.
1% of america consumes raw milk and is 56% of all milk-borne illnesses.
99% of america consumes pasteurized milk and is only 44% of total milk-borne illnesses.
your 126 times more likely to get sick off raw milk...

Want safe, go with powdered, still good after a yr at room temp. Try that with pasteruized

Nutrition info doesn't take into account raw not meant for pasteurization is grass fed; different diet=different nutrition levels. Regulate and let people choose. There are far bigger food safety issues, government reaction to raw milk looks hysterical (eg Rawsome food raid). Check out Project Censored report from 2000 #19, maybe you won't want to drink milk

@leslie604 I don't think regulate and let people choose is the best option for most things and this is one of them. Read the little report never said anything about a peer reviewed document confirming their hypothesis. The Dr Derek Girman only has 5 peer reviewed articles all about animal behavior and phylogeny...So this makes him an expert on milk borne illness? i found a peer reviewed article giving proof MB does die in current pasteurization. ill PM the link. anyone else interested PM me

I wonder if Mark McAffe uses a three breed rotation on his cows for better health/longevity and naturally polled bulls on his breeding stock to improve animal welfare? Those should really impact his bottom line if his consumers care about such things.

It's funny humans are the only animal that drink milk when they're grown ups, and not just that, but also we're the only animal that feeds from the milk of another species. It's even funnier how some people think it'd be gross to drink their mothers' milk again or to drink other animals' milk (mice for example).
Cow milk was made for cows and not humans. It's bad for our health. When you drink cow milk, no matter what kind it is, you're stealing food for babies.

@Cernunnas, I disagree. Do more research on cow's milk, you'll be amazed at what you find. If I'm wrong, I think that the cow calf only needs to feed from the mother in the first 24 hours of birth, at some point, they then, eat grass.

If the raw milk can provide some help for someone with a disease or other ailment, and it is the only thing that can help them - then by all means drink it, absolutely. HOWEVER, for a normal, healthy person, with no immediate medical need for it, drinking raw milk is a mistake. It is dangerous, there are a number of serious bacterial diseases transmitted through raw milk. Is pasteurized milk as nutritionally impressive? No. It is safer though.
Bidon45 1 year ago
@Bidon45, I have read that milk only becomes contaminated when the cow is fed contaminated food or food that is not natural grass. Cows need grass to produce milk, with all of the friendly bacteria and all, that is SUPER healthy. Pasteurized milk guarantees milk production and profit for dairy farmers because the cow can be in any condition to produce milk, contaminated or not. They can feed their dairy cows wheat, or not let them graze freely and keep them locked up without sun until death.

You are right, there is no safe way to distribute raw milk to 300 million people. This doesn't mean raw milk itself is unsafe. The problem isn't with the raw milk , it is with our system of storing(usually starting with the bulk tanks on the dairy and on the trucks) and delivering to the masses, but this cannot be construed in such a way as to define raw milk as inherently unsafe.

I believe we take as much or greater chance with the consumption of raw veggies or improper handling and cooking of meat such as chicken and pork, and I advocate letting the consumer decide for himself what he wishes to consume,e.g. raw milk.

By the way, I drink raw milk almost everyday, and I eat very little "uncooked" vegetables. If you live on a dairy you probaby garden as well, and if you do, you know what kind of crap can get on your raw veggies. Now consider mass produced veggies hand picked by people forced to do their daily business out in the fields.

Want just one reason alone not to drink raw milk? Most farms have cats. Few of these cats get proper shots. Cats can transmit rabies to herds (among other illnesses). Rabies can be transmitted through milk, if not pasteurized. Cows may give milk for many days or more before symptoms are obvious and illness is diagnosed. 100 % of people who develop rabies symptoms die.
Every raw milk advocate follow anecdotal evidence. To reject it, we just need to educate. Don't kill your kids.

Has their been rabies in milk delivered to the processors? Could be, but we'd never know. That's the beauty of pasteurization. If the consumer drank it raw, then we'd know for sure.

Here's some non-anecdotal facts:

3. People who catch rabies from a non-obvious source will not seek early treatment.
4. Your chances of dying from rabies after you show symptoms is 99.9996%.
5. Dairy herds are generally well cared for, but rabies can move through a herd (especially a free-stall farm) very rapidly.
6. Milk is typically consumed in a few days after harvesting, so there would be no chance for a recall once people start to get sick.

My family is in dairy, so I'd love to tell you that direct-to-consumer is a super idea, but it is not. Whether or not you believe that pasteurization kills good bacteria, it does kill e-coli. Cows udders lay in manure and filth all day long. They get a superficial cleaning before the milker machines are connected. The cleansing of the milk is done by the pasteurizer. This is an emotional, ridiculous issue being sold to people that don't know better. Raw milk can kill you.

You want to get angry with the FDA, take on Bovine Growth Hormone and leave the processors alone. The processors are killing bacteria which makes your mild fresh and safe to drink.

And, on the issue of eating chemicals... The consumer has the choice at the supermarket. Read ingredients and nutrition labels.

Raw unpasteurized, unhomogenized grass fed happy cow milk is unquestionably the right choice for kids.
There are quite a few articles suggesting that if you do not drink milk regularly or give up drinking when you get older, your lactose enzyme production reduces drastically and for the aged, milk is harder to digest too so is yoghurt a much better alternative. Also some argue that we are the only ones besides other mammals that don't rely on (mother's) milk anymore after a certain age.

Good question:
Raw milk has all the good bacteria left in it since Pasteurization hasn't killed it off. The good bacteria fights the bad bacteria.
The milks STILL has to be properly handled (stainless steel, clean equipt.& proper temp.etc.) and be from free roaming grass-fed cows.
But if a cow is raised right and milk is safely handled the resulting raw milk is much more resilient to bad bacteria than cooked (Pasteurized) milk.

I've drank it the past 35 years or more. Has it ever made me sick? I don't know. If you ever get sick eating/drinking anything raw then you will most likely get a bad case of the green apple splatters if you are a normal healthy child/adult.

Some very rich, very evil, and very greedy people don't want the rest to be healthy which is why they are constantly putting crap in our water and destroying our food. How stupid are we that we allow someone to tell us what we can eat? If we are to break from this cycle first thing we need to do is throw out the brainwashing programming television and teach our children to think for themselves. Americas strength is being destroyed by creating dumbed down, unhealty, complacent people.

Hi Mark!!!!!!!!!!!
I was visiting my sister in Armenia and was introduced to Tibetan milk fungus. She was using just regular milk. When I came home I tried it too, But nothing was coming out even from the Organic Milk. Then I 've got RAW MILK and what a difference!
Now I have perfect natural KEFIR -delicious and healthy.
Thank you and other Farmers for that.

seriously Canada needs to start changing their laws on raw milk. I have been looking for a source for months now and it's just too difficult here. I am considering moving to California from Montreal just so i can drink raw milk and fresh organic local fruits and veggies :)

I store mine in a glass jar in the fridge. The cartons distort the taste in my opinion.

Hi Mark - you are doing good work, keep it up. We have the same challenge here in Ontario. Michael Schmidt from the Glencolton Farm in Durham, Ontario and his 150 families who have been drinking raw milk for more than 12 years are challenged by the Ontario government. I hope that we in Ontario can have access to raw milk soon....
many blessings from Marianne in Ontario, Canada

I don't drink milk at all.
I drink a rice or almond beverage.
Why are humans the only creatures
that continue to drink milk after
they have been weened from their
mothers? All other animals stop
consuming milk as a source of food
after they are weened from their
mothers.
All milk is crap.

Google "California raw milk ban" and read the article from the SF Chronicles about Organic Pastures. Mark McAffee's safe product was pulled 3 times. The one time Listeria was the culprit. Of course he says it came from somewhere else.

When I went to France and England, I found that their dairy products were the best I ever had. Come to find out later, they don't pasteurize the crap out of their stuff like we do. I think the main reason you dont see raw milk products here in America is because too many corporations have their greedy paws in the pot, drug companies for one. I think we are over pasteurized at this point.

Actually, I think it's the same reason they put chlorine and fluoride in the water. You can guess what the reason is yourself.

Flouride is another item that is being banned in progressive European countries because they realize the danger. There are other, less toxic means of sterilizing water (ionization for one). All you have to do is follow the money. I never understood the logic of medicating entire populations (flouride) because of a single ailment. What's next? Statin drugs in the water so that no one will have heart attacks?

Awesome video Mark! Keep up the good work of helping people heal. It's so ironic that in this free country, it's illegal to buy raw milk. I'm lucky I live in Colorado, where we got a law passed several years ago allowing cow shares programs. I'm thrilled to be drinking fresh, *real* milk again, and to be supporting a local farmer!

And raw milk must be safe! If it was even 1/8 as dangerous as FDA says it is, you would expect to see more than zero people get sick over the 7 year history of OPDC, or the 70+ year history of Claravale, not even counting the countless other places in the world that drink raw milk for the last however many thousand years. I'm appealing to people's own ability to think critically. Does it really make sense what politicians and industry are saying? I think not.

I live in Canada and have never purchased raw milk from Organic Pastures, but I really hope the law gets overturned on this one. People have a right to consume nutritious food untainted by political corruption and corporate greed. I hope to visit Organic Pastures sometime and try some of their milk. I'd love to meet Mike. It's hard to find a passionate person nowadays with integrity and pride who cares more about delivering an excellent product than profit.

If you love raw milk in California, we need you!! Next Wednesday, January 16th 2008, at 12noon, hearings will be held at the Capitol Bldg. in Sacramento to determine the fate of our ability to buy raw milk. Your voice is VITAL. The powers that be need to hear from those of us who love it, appreciate it, and know it for what it is!
Be there with us and let's tell the world!

The best milk! Great taste! Excellent for digestion!
Great cream! Fantastic for desserts!
US consumers need to take advantage of their right to choose. Consumer choice, capitalism, and democracy go hand in hand. Having the government outlaw raw milk consumption is fascism or communism. What a farce!

I grew up in Europe on Raw milk!! I have never had problem with milk...til I moved to the home of the pasturized floks in the US! I couldn't handle the milk here..and got so excited to have rawmilk again! Now these smarties want to take the only live milk that is on the shelves??? That is what I call freedom!

Same here, grew up in Eastern-Europe and we drank milk raw, may be heated a bit for coffee, hot chocolat.
Some times if the cows were sick, store gave us warning for safety, we should heat the milk.
I never got sick from milk, though!
My digestion was excellent in Europe, unlike here in the US!
Many times, I get bloated from food.
