Okay, but the thread is about raw milk and pasteurization.

As for the other crap people are eating, it’s mostly crap like fast food and TV dinners and potato chips and Mountain Dew. Everybody knows this stuff is bad for you. Do we really need the government to ban it? Eating healthy isnt hard or confusing if you really want to. It just requires will power.

In America you can fall off a barstool and bonk yer head and never work another day in your life. So why worry about your health?

eating too much fruit is not going to kill you. i agree, drinking water too fast is not good but water is not toxic.

Water is not toxic, but drinking too much too fast can become toxic and kill you. Too much water can cause water toxicity in your body where your cells are literally waterlogged and can no longer function. Its the neurons in the brain that are effected most as they have no room to expand in your skull and brain swelling is deadly.

Strange but True: Drinking Too Much Water Can Kill

In a hydration-obsessed culture, people can and do drink themselves to death.

There was a radio program some years back and they were challenging listeners to drink as much water as they could as fast as they could and report back to them to win a Nintendo Wii. A caller called in who was a doctor or nurse and said to immediately stop this "challenge" as someone will die from it. They laughed this person off. Later that day a woman drank too much water for the program and died, and the radio station was sued.

"Earlier this year, a 28-year-old California woman died after competing in a radio station's on-air water-drinking contest. After downing some six liters of water in three hours in the "Hold Your Wee for a Wii" (Nintendo game console) contest, Jennifer Strange vomited, went home with a splitting headache, and died from so-called water intoxication."
