    Yes organic milk is better than regular milk because of the following reasons-
    * One of the biggest advantages of organic milk is that as the cows do not feed on grass sprayed with fertilizers, people consuming organic milk are not at risk of taking in these substances. Also, the cows producing organic milk are not treated with any artificial hormones or antibiotics, hence, these substances are absent in organic milk. But this does not mean that regular milk is impure or unsafe to consume. It is also tested according to the government standards.
    * Another advantage of organic milk over regular milk is that it has a longer shelf life as compared to regular milk. Organic milk is ultra pasteurized and this makes it last longer. This also makes organic milk cost higher than regular milk. Some people complain that all the essential nutrients in organic milk are killed as it is treated to a very high temperature. But, this is not true. You can go for organic milk if you wish to have it last longer.
    * Although in the issue of organic milk vs regular milk, one thing that is common among the two is that the amount of nutrients present in both the types of milk is same. The nutritional value of both organic as well as regular milk is the same. One must know that both these types of milk are equally pure and safe to consume.
    * The kind of farming used for production of organic milk is environment friendly and also supportive of wild life. This is also one of the reasons why people pay extra for organic milk. Organic milk is also helps in avoiding the risk of heart disease and obesity.So its better to switch to organic milk.

    Hi Bhavya...Organic milk is milk obtained from cows that have been fed pasture grass, and have also been brought up without being given any hormones or antibiotics during their life. The pasture grass that they feed on is also grown naturally without any pesticides or fertilizers, and the cows are sent out to pasture and not cooped up inside barns and the like.
    Regular milk is obtained from cows that have been fed grain and are given hormones to increase milk production. The feed may be genetically modified (GM) and the feeding is done within barns. They stand around in small lots without much exercise.
    Organic milk is much costlier than regular milk; because of the longer process involved and the absence of any medically induced milk production. The taste however varies a lot and organic milk tastes much better .
