Raw Milk Calories

Published April 9, 2006 | By Leon

Hi, Milkfans

Raw milk does not have less or more calories than the pasteurized version of the same milk. Full cream milk having about 620 calories per Liter, raw or pasteurized.

Although some of the nutrients are destroyed ( small percentage ) during pasteurization, pasteurized milk is still safer than raw milk. Although I have drunk my fair share of raw milk, I see the results of analysis on that milk and therefore feel comfortable drinking that specific farm milk.

Define Psychrotrophic bacteria

Published April 9, 2006 | By Leon

Hi, Milkfans

These bacteria occur naturally in cold places like the Arctic.

They are important in frozen and refrigerated food where they can cause spoilage – even with the cold chain being maintained.

Examples are mould like Penicillium andÂ bacteria like Pseudomonas, Bacillus and Clostridium.

They are an increasing problem in the dairy industry where the cold chain is maintained for longer periods on raw milk, than ever before in history.
