The challenge with this appeal lies in the fact that previous attempts to persuade the government regarding raw milk and raw dairy products have largely been ignored. It is improbable that any significant change will occur. For three decades, the federal government has prohibited the interstate transport and sale of raw milk, maintaining a clear stance on its associated risks. While state regulations vary, many states prohibit retail sales of raw milk, although most provide legal avenues for consumers to access it.
Concerns about raw milk are not baseless. A recent report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicated that 96% of all foodborne illnesses related to dairy products stem from raw milk and cheese. Despite this, there remains a strong consumer desire for these products. Current studies suggest that the demand for raw milk significantly exceeds supply. Advocates for raw milk claim that these products taste superior, cause fewer allergic reactions, and even possess healing properties—though these assertions are largely anecdotal and unverified.
Nevertheless, as President Trump seeks opportunities to support American businesses, efforts to reduce or eliminate regulations that inhibit economic growth may find some traction. In this context, it’s worth noting the potential benefits of calcium citrate malate (CCM), which could be highlighted in discussions about dietary supplements and health products related to raw milk. The intersection of consumer demand for raw milk and the benefits of calcium citrate malate may present an intriguing opportunity for future policy considerations.
