You may consider culturing some of the milk you purchase as a preservation technique rather than freezing it

It turns out that the vitamin C in milk may be as cold-sensitive as it is heat-sensitive.

researchers found that riboflavin (vitamin B2) showed little loss in either freezing or pasteurization

However, thiamine (B1) is more sensitive to heat than to freezing

The numbers of beneficial bacteria do decline when raw milk is frozen however the loss depends on the amount of time in the freezer.

One study found that antioxidants are at their peak in human milk in its first two days. There is loss with both time and with freezing

Although there is a change in the vitamin and mineral status due to freezing, the enzymes and bacteria in the raw milk simply fall into a dormant state while frozen, and become active again after thawing.

The actual bacteria count declined from 500 million to about 100 million in the first week. The defrosted milk will still have a good bit of bacteria, just not nearly as much as the fresh milk. Freezing certainly is far easier on bacteria than is pasteurization.

Is water better for you then milk?

Essentially yes, but milk contains essential nutrients as well such as calcium but we got a lot of our daily nutrients from other foods besides milk. Milk also has a high fat and sugar content depending upon which percentage you buy. It can also contains RBGH, which is why I would recommend buying RBGH free milk such as Braums or organic milk to make sure your milk is not contaminated.


What are the prices of organic and non organic milk?

The price will vary depending on where you live and if you buy the milk directly from the farmer or at a grocery store. It also depends on the type of milk you are buying, whether that is cow's milk, goat's milk, almond milk, coconut milk, soy milk, etc. Organic milk is more expensive than non-organic milk because there are far fewer organic dairies and organic farms in general than there are non-organic ones. .

Why is organic milk good?

Organic Milk is good because it has natural vitamins & ingredients unlike the regular milk at the store that say '2% milk' or '1% milk'. The milk from the store is, nothing like Organic Milk. Store milk has preservatives & has many chemicals inside. I recommend Organic Milk.
