Raw Milk: The Truth about the Dairy Industry

Humans have been drinking cow’s milk for thousands of years, so why did pasteurization suddenly become the standard only in the last century? In this episode, we dive deep into the ancient history of dairy, lactose tolerance, fermented milk traditions, and how the Industrial Revolution radically changed the way milk was produced, transported, and consumed. We explore swill milk, milk sickness, rising infant mortality, the rise of pasteurization, and the powerful institutions and economic forces that shaped the modern dairy industry. From gut health and beneficial bacteria to government regulation, corporate control, and food independence, this episode challenges the mainstream narrative around raw milk and asks whether pasteurization is truly about safety—or something more. Follow me down the rabbit hole about the dairy industry.
