NUTRITIVE VALUE
PASTEURISED AND RAW MILK. NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE. Independent experiments conducted at three centres in the United Kingdom show that there is no significant difference in the nutritive value of pasteurised and raw milk. The committee of the Privy Council for the organisation and development of agricultural research, when making a report on its investigation for the period from October, 1935, to September, 1937, made reference to this subject in the following words: “It is reassuring to know from impartial inquiry that the process of pasteurisation as an added safeguard against unpreventable sources of infection and post-milking contamination on the farm is unobjectionable from a nutritional point of view. At the same time, it must not be forgotten that careless handling of pasteurising plant may recontaminate the milk, and that it is difficult to pasteurise milk which is to be used in rural areas. The ideal is to supply milk from healthy herds, and the freeing of dairy herds from diseases such as tuberculosis, contagious abortion, and the like must still be the primary policy of the clean milk campaign.”
