Do your parents still boil packaged milk before drinking it? It's time to stop them.

Fresh cow's milk contains harmful bacteria that the human body cannot digest. That's why milk goes through pasteurization, a process where it is heated to high temperatures to kill bacteria while keeping the nutrients intact.

After pasteurization, the milk is cooled, packed, and sealed, making it safe and ready to drink.

But many people still boil it again, thinking it's necessary. It's NOT. In fact, boiling packaged milk destroys essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and probiotics that support bone health, immunity, and digestion. The heat also changes the protein structure, making the milk harder to digest.

So, what should you do? Drink packaged milk as it is, straight from the pack or slightly warmed if you prefer. Only raw milk needs to be boiled to kill bacteria.

If your parents are still boiling packaged milk, it's time to educate them. Share them this article and help them make a smarter, healthier choice.
