Manchester City and Norway striker Erling Haaland, 25, has gained attention for his unique daily routine, which includes drinking raw, unpasteurised milk, a product that is legally sold in England but banned in Scotland due to health risks. Haaland, who has scored 24 goals this season, considers raw milk a 'superfood' beneficial for digestion, skin, bones, and muscles, and drinks one glass every morning and after training. He sources the raw milk from a farm in Cheshire, visiting it personally, and believes it contributes to his health, though it is not a standard part of athletic nutrition. Raw milk can contain harmful bacteria, posing food poisoning risks, especially to vulnerable groups such as the elderly, pregnant women, and children. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) regulates its sale, ensuring farms meet strict hygiene standards and label products appropriately. Despite the risks, the popularity of raw milk is rising, driven by consumer beliefs in its health benefits, although scientific evidence supporting these claims is limited. Experts warn that unsafe versions of raw milk may lead to foodborne illnesses, and caution athletes and the public against copying such habits without proper quality checks. Nutritionists emphasize the importance of a balanced diet with adequate carbohydrates and protein over trending health practices. Haaland's consumption of raw milk has sparked wider discussion about unconventional health routines among athletes and the potential dangers of unregulated food choices. His routine also includes other unconventional practices like red-light therapy and adding maple syrup to coffee, reflecting an off-field lifestyle that blends personal beliefs with athletic performance.
