It is dense in food enzymes and beneficial bacteria &#8211; two components of traditional diets that are severely lacking in the standard American diet in which foods have been subject to irradiation, pasteurization and other treatment.\u00a0 Raw milk, like all raw foods, contains food enzymes &#8211; notably amylase, catalase, lactoperoxidase, lipase and phosphatase<sup>1<\/sup>. These food enzymes play important physiological functions in the human body; notably, they help our bodies to better digest our foods.\u00a0 Amylase helps our bodies to digest carbohydrates, while lipase helps us to digest fats. Lactase, though not an actual component of milk itself, but a result of the presence of beneficial bacteria in raw milk, helps to digest lactose, or milk sugar.\u00a0 Raw milk is also a good source of beneficial bacteria &#8211; which are critical to human health (learn more about <a href=\"http:\/\/nourishedkitchen.com\/fermented-food-lactic-acid-fermentation\/\">beneficial bacteria and lactic acid fermentation<\/a>).\u00a0 (&#8230;)<br \/>Click here to read the rest of <a href=\"http:\/\/nourishedkitchen.com\/drink-raw-milk\/\">I drink real milk: fresh, raw, local and full of fat.<\/a> (832 words)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Wondering where your full feed went?
