Re: Is raw milk cheese okay?

February 20, 2009

I can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be. I intend to start

making yogurt from raw milk.

Raw milk has a number of excellent substances in it that get

killed through pasteurization.

Assuming you have a clean producer, it’s much better for you

than pasteurized milk.

In fact – I’m not saying I recommend this; try at your own risk

– according to various raw milk info I’ve read (I’ve been researching it

lately), many people DO NOT react negatively to raw milk lactose like they do

to “regular” milk.

the fact it started out from raw milk is a problem for the SCD?

n,

Do you intend to heat the raw milk to make yogurt? If so you will be

destroying the beneficial substances just like in pasteurization, so

why not just use unhomogenized pasteurized milk. I once made the huge

mistake of making yogurt from raw milk without heating it because I

wanted to preserve all the good stuff in it -- it was the closest I've

come to a flare since starting SCD -- I had a stomach ache and gas for

weeks. Whatever organisms were in there may have been safe when

consuming the plain raw milk, but culturing it to make yogurt I

imagine multiplied them to unsafe levels.

Thanks for the warning, Debbie.

I definitely intended to heat the raw milk. But I’ll rethink the

whole issue.

(Just to point out, though, all good organisms are definitely

not killed when one heats raw milk just hot enough to prepare it for making

yogurt. Modern pasteurizing processes heat milk to somewhere around 500 F; which

is a whole other ball game.)
