    There are heat sensitive compounds in milk that break down during pasteurization. They’re important if you’re a baby cow. I don’t think it’s worth risking your life for though.

      When I was lifting, that’s why some lifters would use raw milk for GOMAD. I was skeptical, as I’m sure GOMAD works because the overall amount of calories and high fat/protein content without having to think about other changes to your diet. I don’t think those compounds would make much difference, if any.

        All proteins, which include enzymes, are broken down into amino acids by your digestive system before being used to build new ones. Same goes for carbs and lipids.

        Shit, you don’t just breakdown new protein intake, your body is constantly recycling the protein it already has.
