  Freezing does not measurably change the nutritive value of milk. Freezing causes a destabilization of the protein, however, and particles of precipitated protein may be visible on the glass when the milk thaws. On thawing, there is also a tendency for the fat to separate. Milk that has been accidentally frozen (on the doorstep in winter, for example) is quite safe to use. It is a wise precaution to boil the milk for all uses, if during freezing the cap has been pushed out of the bottle.
