Organic Milk

I recently saw an ad for organic milk:

"Produced with no antibiotics, hormones or chemicals, our delicious milk is certified organic, then ultra-pasteurized for purity, longer shelf life and your total confidence. It's the wholesome excellence you demand - with a great taste you'll crave."


Sound healthy?


Maybe, if you don't know a couple key facts:
  • Ultra-pasteurized kills the enzymes available in fresh, raw milk, that allow your body to benefit from the nutrients, thus eliminating the benefit of wholesome milk.
  • The ultra-pasteurization process may cause the formation of processed free glutamic acid, which has the same effect on the body as MSG. In other words, this is a source of hidden MSG.
