- Studies in farmers children have indicated that raw milk may protect against allergies and asthma. This study will assess the effects of raw milk on allergies and asthma in non-farming families who have different exposures to farming families. Massey University researchers are studying the effects of drinking raw milk.
- A 2001 study published in the Medical Journal Lancet found long-term and early-life exposure to stables and farm milk induces a strong protective effect against development of asthma, hay fever, and atopic sensitisation.
- This paper investigates the link between raw milk consumption and a reduction in allergies and eczema.
