Fresh Raw A2 Cow Milk in Sarjapur, HSR & Bellandur – Tradition meets technology! (Milkvilla)

Image
Why Bengaluru’s Packaged‑Milk Habit Needs a Reset. Bengaluru loves its milk – but most of us get it in plastic pouches or long-life cartons. India buys a staggering 120 million plastic milk packets every day  and namma Bengaluru is no exception. Those handy little sachets create mountains of waste, clogging landfills and lakes. Packaged milk also often means UHT or heavily processed milk . Ultra-high-temperature (UHT) treatment extends shelf life, but can degrade nutrients (e.g. up to 30% loss of vitamin A , and near total loss of vitamins B6, B12, C over time) By the time that carton reaches your Cornflakes, it’s a far cry from fresh. Freshness and flavour suffer, too. Milk in the local kirana store might be days old, traveling through middlemen and chilled supply chains. Contrast that with raw farm-fresh milk delivered the same day – the difference in taste is like night and day. No wonder we dilute our packet milk in coffee; as one customer put it, “the fresh tast...

How do Microplastics affect Fertility? Understanding their link to growing Infertility

Image
How microplastics are linked to infertility: Uncovering the impact on reproductive health Microplastics are tiny plastic particles less than 5mm in size, generated from breakdown of larger plastic items such as plastic packaging 1 4 . With global plastic production projected to be 1.2 billion tons by 2050 the amount of plastic entering our environment is a big problem. These plastics break down into microplastics which are everywhere in our environment, including the food and water we consume. Research suggests we ingest between 39,000 to 52,000 microplastics a year from various sources such as food packaging, water bottles and polybags. This widespread contamination is a big concern for health particularly on fertility, reproductive health and health of infants and pregnant women. Microplastics come from various sources like plastic breakdown, synthetic fibers from clothing, and the degradation of packaging [Fig1] .

The Impact of Milk Homogenization and How Milkvilla Offers a Healthier Alternative Milk is a daily staple for millions, but not all milk is created equal. What happens to milk before it reaches your glass can significantly affect its nutrition and digestibility. One such process, often overlooked, is homogenization . What is Milk Homogenization? Homogenization is a mechanical process used to break down the fat molecules in milk so they remain suspended evenly. This is done by forcing milk through narrow nozzles at high pressure. In simple terms: it ensures the cream doesn't rise to the top, giving milk a consistent, smooth texture. Why it's done: Mix milk powder, cream, and other additives  Prevents cream and other additive separation Enhances visual appeal (whiter milk) Extends shelf life Ensures uniformity for mass distribution Potential Drawbacks of Homogenization Despite its industrial benefits, homogenization may raise concerns: Alters milk fat structure and...
