Safety Profile

Contraindications & Risks

Immunocompromised individuals, pregnancy (CDC warns against), young children (CDC), potential pathogens (Listeria, E. coli, Salmonella) from contaminated milk

Important Notes

Nutritionally superior to pasteurized (enzymes, beneficial bacteria, immunoglobulins intact). CDC/FDA strongly oppose due to pathogen risk. Serious illness outbreaks documented but rare from good farms. Legal battles ongoing. Many report improvements in allergies, gut health. Controversial trade-off: nutrition vs. safety.
