Raw Milk for 16 Month old

[LWebby]

Anyone out there got any thoughts on Raw Milk. Was thinking about getting some for my 16 mth old as the health benefits look great.

I was violently ill age 10 from raw milk and hospitalised. So no, I wouldn't touch it again!

There is no evidence that raw milk provides any particular health benefits over and above pasteurized milk.

Moreover, no matter how clean the dairy, raw milk carries a small but real risk. It has a different flavor to pasteurized milk which some adults prefer, so some people choose to take on that small risk. However, I would not advise giving it to a young child.
