All About Raw Milk
REAL MILK COMES FROM REAL COWS THAT EAT REAL FEED

Raw milk is milk that comes straight from the cow to you and has not been processed in any way.

​

  • REAL MILK IS NOT HOMOGENIZED

  • REAL MILK CONTAINS NO ADDITIVES

Properly produced and handled raw milk is an extremely low-risk food. However it must be remembered that any food can be contaminated. Here at Henderson Dairy we are very particular to ensure the cow’s udder is thoroughly cleaned prior to each milking. The milk from each quarter is checked prior to being milked. 

​

The health benefits of raw milk are numerous. Good bacteria and CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) make raw milk an excellent choice for consumers who choose to include dairy in their diet.

Leafy green vegetables can be more dangerous than raw milk! When it is produced safely in accordance with accepted sanitary standards, raw milk is not at all the villain that the government continually claims it is. In fact, raw milk is among the safest foods a person can eat, ranking higher than other common foods like processed lunch meat, factory-produced chicken eggs, and even conventional vegetables. It may come as a shock, but the latest research shows that leafy green vegetables actually carry with them a higher food safety risk than raw milk. 

Some science shows that raw milk contains far more health giving properties than any other forms of milk
