PASTEURIZATION DESTROYS VITAMIN C
…The pasteurization of milk has been found to destroy 20 to 50 percent (of the Vitamin C), the first month of life. The reasonable procedure, therefore, appears to be to use pasteurized milk to insure protection against disease germs of various kinds and to supply the vitamin deficiency through other foods.The success in infant feeding based on this principle is evinced especially in the amazing reduction in infant mortality in the summer months.”
