The rationale for the paper
I developed this website in response to questions from consumers about raw milk information. In July of 2009 I wrote an article on the Ethicurean about the state of information about raw milk, specifically the issue of raw milk's ability to kill pathogens.
The fact is that both regulators and raw milk advocates cite the same studies about the ability of raw milk to kill pathogens. They reach vastly different conclusions from the same data. In both instances their conclusions are overly simplistic.
Raw milk is a complex medium and the research on its ability to kill pathogens makes that clear. For raw milk consumers interested in making an informed decision about their food consumption, we need a more thorough analysis of the literature.
The raw milk white paper available to you here takes complex information about raw milk and its ability to kill pathogens and it presents it to you in a series of visual displays -- graphs that tell you a story about raw milk.
The cost
I provide a lot of free information on the Internet because I enjoy it. You may have already benefited from my website on nutrient deficiencies and depression. Writing a systematic paper is another matter and to do so requires some sort of funding. Because of the controversial nature of raw milk, the best sponsor for this paper is you, the raw milk consumer. You are sponsoring quality information about raw milk by purchasing this paper.

"I have
reviewed your white paper and found it to be
refreshingly well stated and accurate (according to
my experience)." -- Mark McAfee, raw dairy farmer
"[The paper] does a nice job of reviewing the key
research, and concludes that raw milk isn't a great
medium for growing pathogens, but then it's not
impossible for pathogens to survive." -- David
Gumpert, The Complete Patient
"Thanks for putting the facts out there and letting
people decide for themselves.
As a small farmer who consumes her own fresh (raw)
milk, I find this data and Amanda Rose's analysis
of it very enlightening." -- Diane Coe
"I found the paper well put together and very easy
to read. The graphs were excellent in detailing the
results of the tests."
