Brad was milk intolerant; milk consumption led to diarrhea. His diet was typical American fare—overly processed and refined. Brad's urinalysis revealed an allergy pattern, highly acidic pH, severe vitamin C deficiency, calcium and magnesium deficiency, and a toxic colon. It also showed excess fat and protein consumption, and poor sugar metabolism. People with a spastic colon are sometimes complex-carbohydrate intolerant and have a tendency to like fats.

Spokesmen contend, "The amounts of lactose administered in the tests are unusually large and thus have no bearing on what might be expected to occur with more normal milk consumption. While it is true that lactose intolerance should not be equated with milk intolerance, tests have demonstrated that as many as 60 to 75 percent of individuals judged to be lactase-deficient by conventional testing, will experience gastrointestinal upsets after the consumption of one standard eight-ounce glass of milk.

About 85 percent of Caucasians have a genetic adaptation to the immediate digestive effects of milk consumption, although there is no evidence that they have adapted to the apparent long-term problems caused by dairy products: cataracts and ovarian problems due to breakdown products of lactose sugar;24 insulin-dependent diabetes and some cases of arthritis, migraines, and other sensitivities to milk proteins; coronary artery disease and obesity from milk fat and cholesterol; and possibly breast cancer from the fat, hormones, and growth factors in milk.
While most North Americans and Europeans accept animal milk consumption as natural, it is a biologically recent phenomenon that remains alien to much of the rest of the world. Wheat. Wheat consumption was impossible until the advent of fire and cooking, by which time modern human biology had long been established. Once consumed, however, wheat grew in popularity quickly. In 2700 B.C., Chinese emperor Shen Nung included it as one of the five principal and sacred crops, along with barley, millet, rice, and soybeans.
Its effect on the ovaries is worrisome, given that ovarian cancer is often aggressive, and is a matter of ongoing research. milk consumption is also linked with higher breast cancer risk, presumably due to growth factors in milk.17 The sugar in milk is not its only problem. Some people are sensitive to milk proteins, which can cause diarrhea and vomiting, in addition to more typical allergic symptoms, such as a runny nose, skin conditions, or asthma.

Calcium and vitamin D nourish the colon. milk consumption has been linked to lower rates of colon cancer. Recommended: calcium, 800-1000 milligrams daily; vitamin D, 400 to 1000 International Units daily. • Omega-3 oils like flaxseed oil and fish oil contain "good" prostaglandins with anti-inflammatory properties. Raw flaxseed has a regulatory effect on the gastrointestinal system and prevents constipation. A tablespoon a day sprinkled on cereal or salad is beneficial both for its fiber and for its oil content.

Koopman, at the School of Public Health, University of Michigan, blames about fourteen percent of all cases of medically treated gastrointestinal illness on low-fat milk consumption; at worst risk, he says, are one- to two-year-olds. In fact, other research confirms that chronic diarrhea in young children drinking skim milk (sometimes in attempts to avoid later atherosclerosis) is quickly cured by restoring the milk fat. As for any danger to giving milk to youngsters who already have diarrhea, an excellent study from Finland disputed that old rubric.

Murray, population studies show that the higher the milk consumption, the greater the likelihood of an ulcer.7 Besides, milk can cause other digestive problems. In Food: Your Miracle Medicine, author and nutritionist Jean Carper notes that lactose-intolerance symptoms are often misdiagnosed as much more serious bowel conditions. She quotes one internist who has seen hundreds of people spend years and thousands of dollars trying to find the cause of their bowel symptoms; when he tells them to eliminate dairy products, the immediate and radical improvement changes their lives.

Recent research also suggests a possible link between milk consumption in infancy and an increased risk of NIDDM.29 Lifestyle Changes That May Be Helpful Most people with NIDDM are obese.30 Excess abdominal weight does not stop insulin formation,31 but it does make the body insensitive to insulin.32 Excess weight even makes healthy people pre-diabetic.33 Weight loss reverses this problem.34 NIDDM improves with weight loss in most studies.35,36,37 Being overweight does not cause IDDM, but it does increase the need for more insulin.

Cramer had also found that milk consumption is linked with higher rates of infertility. Normally, enzymes help the body eliminate galactose. Some women have particularly low levels of these enzymes, and when they consume dairy products regularly, their risk of ovarian cancer is triple that of other women. Because galactose comes from the milk sugar, not the milk fat, it is in skim milk, just as in whole milk, and is present in yogurt, ice cream, cheese, and all other dairy products.

Whole eggs may be used as a good source of protein now. milk consumption may be reduced, but it is still a regular source of nourishment. Infants may wean at this time, though many mother-baby teams will continue nursing for another year or more, especially with the aid of a breast pump for working mothers. Foods and meals should be simple. Make as much of your own foods as possible; jars and cans of foods should not be used exclusively. After one year, the infant's diet may shift. Food needs for growth are less now as the rate of growth slows down.

Foods high in iodine should be eliminated, and milk consumption (due to high hormone content) should be limited.7 Trans-fatty acids and high-fat foods should also be eliminated. Sugar, insulin, and chromium Many dermatologists have reported that insulin is effective in the treatment of acne, suggesting impaired cutaneous glucose tolerance and/or insulin insensi-tivity.8,9 The insulin was either given systemically (5-10 units two to three times a week) or injected directly into the lesion.
High calcium intake due to high milk consumption is linked as a possible causative factor perhaps by the combination of calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus of milk reducing the absorption of magnesium.9 At the same time, there are studies showing positive improvements in PMS symptomatology with calcium supplementation (1,000-1,336 mg).68,69 In one of the more recent studies, calcium and manganese supplementation (1,336 and 5.6 mg, respectively) improved mood, concentration, and behavior. In another study, 1,000 mg/day improved mood and water retention.
For those who tolerate it, milk consumption should be limited to no more than one or two servings per day. EXCHANGE LIST 7: MEATS, FISH, CHEESE, AND EGGS When choosing from this list, it is important to choose primarily from the low fat group and to remove the skin of poultry. This will keep the amount of saturated fat low. Although many people advocate vegetarianism, the exchange list below provides high concentrations of certain nutrients difficult to get in an entirely vegetarian diet such as the full range of amino acids, vitamin B12/ and iron.

However, there is additional evidence suggesting that milk should be avoided in patients with peptic ulcers; for example, population studies show that the higher the milk consumption, the greater the likelihood of ulcer, and milk significantly increases stomach acid production.11 Fiber A diet rich in fiber is associated with a reduced rate of duodenal ulcers as compared with a low-fiber diet. The therapeutic use of a high-fiber diet in patients with recently healed duodenal ulcers reduces the recurrence rate by half.

Countries with high milk consumption have a high risk of IDDM.23 Animal research indicates that avoiding milk affords protection from IDDM.24 Milk contains a protein that is related to a protein in the pancreas, the organ where insulin is made. Some researchers believe that children who are allergic to milk may develop antibodies that attack the pancreas, causing IDDM. Most, but not all, studies indicate that children with IDDM drink cow's milk at an earlier age than other children.25 Children with IDDM may have high levels of antibodies that attack milk protein.
