Objective
To investigate why consumers continue to advocate for raw drinking milk (RDM) despite public health warnings and to explore the risks and potential mitigating factors associated with its consumption.
Conclusions
The study concludes that while some consumers believe in the benefits of raw milk due to its natural antimicrobial properties, the risks of consuming RDM, particularly for vulnerable populations, are significant and require mitigation.
