Shelf life for raw milk is about a week tops, I've found. And you can't leave it unrefrigerated for longer than about 1.5 hours without it spoiling, or just tasting terrible.
Drink breast milk. Fuck cow milk
Cow's milk, regardless of source or pasteurization, has been associated with decreased waist circumference and adiposity. A quick search on google scholar using those key words will point you in the right direction.

Correlation doesn't imply causation.
You could easily say skid marks are associated with Crohn's Disease. It may or may not be true. But to assert it as fact based on a correlation alone is wrong.
Anyway,
Organic stuff gets overrated by the health nuts, but in the case of dairy products it is very justified. Milk contains it's own form of insulin and many other hormones meant for a calf and not a human. That gets compounded with whatever hormones the farmer gives them. If you're going to consume milk, go organic. But even then, milk period, organic or not, will contain hormones and insulins meant for the growth of the young of another animal species.
I just don't recommend milk at all as a staple in the diet. When people complain about the rising cost of milk, I just think "Good. You don't need that shit anyway."

Other than lactose intolerance there is zero reason to avoid milk of any kind.

- Cool insulin resistance bro.
Now, conversely, explain to me why TS NEEDS milk in his diet?

Skimmed through the first couple of pages on this thread, and have thus made an inference that most everyone here disagrees with the idea that milk is bad for you. I'm here to give my anectdotal evidence.
I used to have pretty bad eczema on my hands, wrist, and feet. It was really red and looked like I had an infectious disease, ever since I was a kid. I heard eczema could be caused by allergens, so I systematically started eliminating and re-adding things to my diet. The week I eliminated milk, it almost completely cleared up.
Sucks because I LOVE milk, but I avoid it now. So I think it's possible that certain people are mildly lactose intolerant and don't even really know it.
Nowadays I still drink a glass or eat it with cereal and can go without flare ups, but I usually just substitute with almond milk. Just as good imo.
Lactose intolerance or lactose allergies can manifest in many different ways.
