Milk is an important part of our daily nutrition. It has nine essential nutrients that benefit our health like calcium and vitamin D for strong bones, proteins for energy, potassium for a healthy blood pressure, phosphorus, vitamin B12, Vitamin B2, and Niacin. Not only is it great for our bodies, it is delicious as well. I try to drink at least a glass of milk a day. Growing up, my grandparents owned a couple of cows so I used to drink unpasteurized milk all the time. Nowadays we know that is a no-no.

The Food and Drug Administration issued a warning that raw or unpasteurized milk can contain dangerous bacteria. However, the demand for raw milk has been on the rise for the past few years because of fears about hormones contained by traditional milk. Thirty Five people across four states have found out the hard way just how dangerous unpasteurized milk can be when they purchased raw milk from Family Cow farm In Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. The company voluntarily suspended production of the raw milk and advises its consumers to through away any milk they have purchased from the company on and after January 1^st. Twenty eight of the infected were in Pennsylvania, four in Maryland, two in West Virginia, and one in New Jersey.
