Branded pasteurized milk is safer . If buying from milkman then make sure a trusted source and you boil the milk properly, so as to kill the bad bacteria in raw milk.

You can go for branded milk and if you wish to buy from the milk man make sure you are boiling it and taking so the chance of infection is less. Milk is good source of calcium, protein, Magnesium, vitamin A.

Milk is a rich source of protein, calcium, vitamin A B12 and other micro nutrients as well,It is considered as one of the complete food. Packaged branded products are better because of hygiene quality and ease of use.
As long as you have no allergies with milk consumption then it can definitely become part of your everyday diet.
