THE EFFECTS OF RAW MILK AND PASTEURIZED MILK CONSUMPTION ON PUBLIC HEALTH
Abstract
Milk contains almost all the necessary nutrients needed for the growth, development and survival of a person. Despite the beneficial effects of consumption of milk and dairy products on nutrition and health, raw milk can harbor dangerous microorganisms such as Salmonella, E. coli and Listeria, which can pose serious health risks. In order to destroy possible pathogenic microorganisms that may be found in raw milk and to protect nutritional value, heat treatments accepted in international norms are applied. Pasteurization is a process that destroys harmful bacteria by heating the raw milk to a certain Temperature for a certain period of time. While pasteurization helps provide safe, nutritious milk and cheese, some people claim that pasteurisation destroys important nutritional items in the milk, has the therapeutic properties of such as asthma and reduction of allergies, and is a safer alternative. In this review, in the conjunction with the literatüre, the effect of pasteurisation on the quality of milk nutrients and alleged potential benefits of raw milk are described as critical.
