The Consumption Of Cow Milk, It Has Become Highly Consumed Within The Western Diet And Worldwide

For many years now humans have been deceived that cow’s milk will provide many health benefits.

Louis Pasteur was magnificently a genius. His life was an example of hard work and persistence. He was called “The father of modern hygiene, public health and much of modern medicine, as well as the father of microbiology and immunology.” As a scientist, he made many discoveries and experimentations that are benefits to human and animals. Although sometimes his claims raised controversies, Louis Pasteur investigated, revised deeper and deeper his claims to bring up more evidences that lead him to more and more discoveries. Today, because of his claims; we know the correlation or causation between putrefaction and fermentation. We know what makes the milk spoiled, and how to prevent people to overuse it by putting an expiring date on the gallon.

products (Morin, 1990). In 1979, 6.9 million kilolitres of milk were sold in Canada. Thirty-

There are so many issues that this world is currently facing but hardly anyone of us is actually trying to solve these issues. Many of our fellow human beings are suffering from some sort of health issue ranging from diabetes to heart disease. Not only are we slowly killing ourselves with our poor diets but we are also killing our environment by creating more and more waste and pollution. The third issue that we are currently facing is our economic issue due to our excessive spending and lack of money and income. The issues that we are currently facing can be resolved by decolonizing our diets because our health will improve, it will save the environment and it will provide the economic growth that we need.

Louis Pasteur in 1862, but it took many years of fighting to get the safe and uncontaminated milk for Canadian citizens2. The process of pasteurization is to kill microorganisms, including Salmonella typhi bacteria which leads to typhoid found in the milk and the only way to reduce these bacteria is by heating the milk. Raw milk or unpasteurized milk, can also contain bacteria for E. coli, Listeriosis, and tuberculosis. Earlier, in the twentieth century, diseases like tuberculosis and typhoid led to thousands of deaths and disabilities, but neither of them are serious health risk in Canada

One or two checks and tests were put in place in order to validate the data trends. A colorimeter was used as a more scientifically consistent measure of milk clarity: (one sample was taken from each temperature setting) and mean readings were calculated from the table results to hopefully reduce the effect of moderate outliers.

Unlike what we have been thought, milk is unhealthy and it will cause many different diseases in human’s body. Even though that they try to limit the bacteria in raw milk before and after milking, but they just can lower the level of bacteria, they can’t remove all of it, and by drinking milk we transfer diseases to our body (Garedew et al, 2012, p 950). Before milking they will sterilize cow’s breast and also they will inject antibiotics to lower the level of bacteria in cow’s body. They also use sterilize milking equipment so the bacteria available on the equipment will not reach cow’s breast and directly milk. With all those sterilized processes they still need to do the pasteurization process because of

Parents are concerned about the milk being pasteurized and its harmful effect on their children since most of the nutrient in the milk is destroyed during the process of pasteurization. Soy milk has gained an image as a healthy alternative milk, if now being transformed, parents will consider the soy milk like a high-risk milk. Drinking milk is nature’s most perfect food. Our children need great source of milk in order for them to be strong and healthy women and men tomorrow. In today’s world, there is a major wake-up call for anyone who use pasteurized or processed food. These kind of food weaken our body and our health. Imagine our little ones being fed with them, it

Tim has grown up on the family farm, it has been in his family for five generations. He owns a very unique dairy. For one, his cows are kept out on a pasture and brought in for every milking. Two, he keeps the heifer calves with their mothers out in the field instead of bottle feeding them. He has found that doing this has led to no cases of pneumonia. Tim is also very pro raw milk. He has sold raw milk for the past 15 years. He believes that it better for us, and there is no reason we should not drink it. Everyone he knows have never gotten sick from drinking raw milk; he also believes that there are a lot of good bacteria in raw milk. TIm believes that through the pasteurization process, and losing all of the good bacteria that it has lowered people's immune systems and that is what is making people sick. He also very adamant that grass fed is the way to go. Any other way he believes lessens the quality and taint the taste of the milk. It was very obvious that he loves what he

On August 10 2013 a six year old child (Alf) fell seriously ill after drinking cosmetic bath milk produced by Mootanicals Pty Ltd. Alf contracted ‘Haemolytic uraemic syndrome’ which can lead to death. Tanner (Alf’s father) purchased the milk from ‘Eco Health Store’. Curly Linton, a manager at Eco’s, advised tanner that the milk produced by Mootanicals was a healthier alternative to cows milk. The milk was sold along side, pasteurised milk and in similar packaging however it was unpasteurized and was labeled with ‘for cosmetic/bath purposes’. Evidence shows that the milk could be contaminated with harmful bacteria if it is unpasteurized, and Mootanicals does not test their milk for these bacteria’s. Evidence also shows that unpasteurized milk has a number of benefits however it is common knowledge that many people purchase it to consume despite the fact is illegal to sell unpasteurized milk for human consumption in Australia.

Pasteurization was made a requirement in the 1920s with the hopes that it would combat tuberculosis, infant stomach problems, and other diseases that were a result of poor nutrition for the animal producing it as well as unclean production methods. That may have been a legitimate decision in the 1920s but with modern day farming systems, including stainless steel tanks, milking machines, and refrigeration, the need for a law banning raw milk is no longer necessary. Pasteurization has actually been linked to causing more extreme cases of asthma as well as an increase in heart disease and even cancer. These diseases were almost non-existent in the past but once pasteurization became a requirement the numbers skyrocketed. The pasteurization process

The main purpose of this lab is to identify and separate the main components of milk. To do this an understanding of the properties of these components in needed to separate them from one another. We will be separating the components with their polarity or non-polarity and the temperature at which specific components precipitate. To do this we will be using hot plates, gravity filters and vacuum filters1, water and ice baths, and blot drying.

The results suggest that pasteurization kills most pathogens in milk by brief exposure to relatively high temperature. This was demonstrated most beneficially with the 10-6 and 10-7 dilutions wherein the raw milk exhibited 284,000,000 cells/mL and 440,000,000 cells/mL respectively and the pasteurized milk had too few cell colony forming units to even count. Unpasteurized milk is not healthy for people to drink. For example, in a study performed in December of 2001, the bacteria Campylobacter jejuni, a microaerophilic bacteria commonly found in animal feces, was found in unpasteurized milk at an organic dairy farm in Wisconsin and caused 75 people, ages 2 to 63, to become ill.

allowing it to be contaminated, stopped the souring. This is where the term, “Pasteurized milk”

In accordance with previous research, milk is considered both healthy and beneficial for human consumption. In 2005, research from the dietary
