 Watch Dairy
Avoid commercial dairy products, including milk, sour cream, buttermilk, cheeses, margarine, and other milk products. If you must include dairy in your diet, choose organic products that contain no hormones or antibiotics. Much depends on whether you are lactose intolerant, your blood type (i.e., people with blood types B and AB usually digest dairy better), and if the dairy is cultured, as in yogurt, or if the product is raw or pasteurized, since pasteurization makes dairy products more difficult to digest. This applies to milk and cheese. |

 Taurine is an amino acid found widely distributed in foods of animal origin (but not milk or milk products). Taurine is biosynthesized from methionine or from cysteine during the metabolic process, and disturbances in enzymatic reactions that take place in this process can lead to mental retardation. Vegetarian mothers who consume no meat products during their pregnancy, and therefore have a low-taurine diet, as well as others on a protein-, methionine-, or vitamin Bf—deficient diet might be at particular risk. |

 Undoubtedly, the introduction of milk products (high in calcium) into the human diet coincided with the explosion in meat and grain consumption when humans domesticated grazing animals and wild grains. Because pasteurized (cooked) milk products are not suitable for human consumption (and for other reasons mentioned in earlier lessons), calcium should come primarily from green-leafy vegetables and/or their juices. |

 By contrast, people who gobbled cakes, pastries, soft drinks, milk products, butter, margarine, and red meat were more likely to develop wrinkles. The study, spearheaded by Mark L. Wahlqvist, M.D., a professor at the Asia Pacific Health and Nutrition Centre in Melbourne, also hinted that the old adage—"an apple a day keeps the doctor away"—holds some truth: eating apples and drinking tea was found to reduce skin damage by 34 percent, sunny weather or not. |

 The American Academy of Pediatrics made a decision, based on this data, in 1994 to strongly encourage families with a diabetic history not to give their children cow's milk or cow's milk products for at least two years. The key to understanding this is that there are more than 100 antigens found in milk. The reason for the increase in juvenile diabetes is that the children have much higher formation of antibodies to the cow's milk antigens. |

 In general, it may be stated that in excess of 90% of human exposure to PCDDs, PCDFs and dioxin-like PCBs derives from the consumption of animal fats, of which 50% are contained in milk and milk products. Infants are exposed to these substances before birth as well as through the maternal milk," reported the Health Council of the Netherlands. See: www.borstvoeding.com/abon/bf_toxins.html

 Sheep and goat milk products contributed most of the protein. Their small vineyard grew Cannonau grapes for wine.
Their diet was fairly typical of families in the region before the American-style food culture arrived, as surveys from before the 1940s revealed. "Shepherds and peasants in Sardinia have an exceptionally simple diet, which is extraordinarily lean even by Mediterranean standards," a 1941 survey reported. "Bread is by far the main food. Peasants leave early in the morning to the fields with a kilogram of bread in their saddlebag. ... |

| Buying Horizon and Aurora dairy products is certainly better than purchasing dairy products from conventionally raised animals given regular subtherapeutic doses of antibiotics and sulfa drugs that government reports show appear in their finished milk products, and I have no problem as a consumer in supporting either of these companies.50 But you, the consumer, ought to have inside information. |

| Include fat-free and low-fat milk products, fish, legumes (beans), skinless poultry, and lean meats.
• Choose fars with 2 grams or less of saturared fat per serving, such as liquid and tub margarines, canola oil, and olive oil.
• Balance the number of calories you eat with the number you use each day. (To find that number, multiply the number of pounds you weigh now by 15 calories. This represents the average number of calories used in one day if you're moderately active. If you get very little exercise, multiply your weight by 13 instead of 15. Less-active people burn fewer calories. |
| Other food sources of calcium include milk products (although consumption of these can lead to allergies in the baby), dark green leafy vegetables, asparagus, and pumpkin seeds. Avoid bone meal or oyster shell calcium tablets, which have been found to be high in lead, mercury, cadmium, and other toxic metals. |

| Gordon, clinical professor at the Georgetown University School of Medicine, tells his patients to start with an experiment: "Cut out the processed food, cut out the sugar, cut out the additives and in some cases, cut out certain foods that may be likely to cause food sensitivities—wheat and milk and milk products, maybe corn. See what happens. In many cases, a kid's behavior has turned around almost 180 degrees."
This needs to be a part of our collective consciousness. Dr. Gordon believes it hasn't been so because "we keep the focus on that magic bullet. |

| Milk and milk products contribute 73% of the calcium to the U.S. food supply [61]. Lactose maldigestion is associated with lower calcium intakes and is more frequent in osteoporotic cases than in controls [62-65]. For example, Newcomer et al. [62] found that 8 of 30 women with osteoporosis were lactose maldigesters compared to only 1 of 30 controls. In addition, calcium intakes of postmenopausal women positive for LNP in this study were significantly lower than in the lactase-persistent women (530 mg/day versus 811 mg/day).

OVERSEAS PROPHETS
Not content with their profits in America, where soymilk is experiencing double-digit growth, soy promoters have turned their attention to the continent of India, a nation that holds the cow sacred and that has depended on milk products for its animal protein and fat for thousands of years. |
| Northwestern University in Illinois even listed several soy milk products under the category "hypoallergenic."68
In fact, research showing that soy is indeed allergenic dates back at least to the 1930s. Babies who are allergic to cow's milk are highly likely to be allergic to soy formulas as well. Symptoms run the gamut from rashes to diarrhea, asthma and anaphylactic shock. (See Chapter 24. |
| Department of Pediatrics, National Jewish Hospital and Research Center in Denver, put it: "Feeding a soy product from birth for 112 days did not prevent a brisk antibody response to cow milk introduced subsequently, comparable to or greater than the antibody response seen when cow milk products were fed from birth."72

 Add Yogurt or Kefir to Your Daily Program
Cultured milk products restore healthful bacteria to your body and are usually well tolerated even by people who have problems with dairy. You need to eat the plain yogurt with the real live cultures (not the junk food with the tons of fruit on the bottom). Even better, use kefir. Here's the deal with the carb content: it's not as high as the package says. In fact, for A cup of yogurt, kefir, or buttermilk, you need to count only 2 grams of effective carbohydrate!
How can this be? It's because of the way the government measures carbs. |
| But to make fermented milk products, bacteria are implanted in the milk; these bacteria basically eat up all the carbohydrate milk sugar (lactose) and convert it into something called lactic acid, which is what curdles the milk and gives it its unique "fermented" taste. The process the government established counts the lactic acid as carbohydrate, but it's really not. Goldberg himself did the measurements in his lab and concluded that 'A cup of plain buttermilk, yogurt, or kefir yields only 2 grams of carbohydrate; 1 cup counts as 4 grams. |

 All dairy products, with the exception of some goat milk products, tend to cause derangement in kapha. Goat milk has slightly astringent qualities that help minimize the kapha imbalance. Kapha people generally are not very thirsty and should not drink the eight glasses of liquid per day that are supposed to be so healthy for everyone.
Exercise is very important for kapha people. They do poorly if they do not get sufficient or regular exercise, or if they nap during the day. |

| There is clear evidence that feeding cows' milk to an infant sets him up for a greater risk of developing juvenile-onset diabetes, either due to a type of protein called bovine serum albumin (BSA) that can be found in cows'milk - based infant formulas or other milk products, or because cows' milk often stimulates the production of other antibodies that may destroy portions of the pancreas. |
| Avoidance of hormone-fed animal products and milk products are important for male sexual vitality, especially in men with low sperm counts or low testosterone levels.
