Raw Milk

[Etoile]

Hi

Just wondering if anyone out there has any knowledge of how raw milk is tolerated with diabetes? I know that its constitution is different because it hasn’t gone through the pasteurisation process but I don’t know if that makes any. difference.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Etoile , welcome to the forum.

I love raw milk, and occasionally buy a bottle at a local farm.
Not too often though, I love it enough to make it very difficult to stick to a few sips, and milk makes me rise fast when I drink more than just a little for taste.

I don't think it makes much of a difference on blood glucose, pasteurisation doesn't add or remove carbs.
It may be the rise is a tiny bit slower with raw milk because none of the fats have been removed, and fats slow down the carb hit.

Hi,

My understanding is the lactose content is unchanged thus will make no difference to the carbs pasteurised or not..
