What is raw milk?

There’s a growing movement in the health and wellness community to move away from highly-processed foods.

Cow’s milk has become wrapped up in that movement. Wellness influencers online claim that raw milk is healthier and safer than the usual pasteurized kind you buy in a grocery store. But health experts beg to differ.

“It’s shared by pro-raw milk drinkers that pasteurization makes cow’s milk less nutritious, but that isn’t true at all,” registered dietitian Jamie Nadeau tells USA TODAY. “When you’re weighing the pros and cons, it just doesn’t make sense to choose raw milk.”

Here’s what diet and food safety experts want you to know about the safety issues that arise with raw milk.
