My cousin’s daughter (age 10) was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. T1D is an autoimmune disorder where risk increases with consumption of dairy casein.
It is not casein but alpha lactalbumin in milk that is targeted by the immune system. The same immune system attacks the pancreatic islets because of a resemblance of the surface to alpha lactalbumin structure. Hence insulin secretion is absent leading to T1D. Once the immune system gears into work you could not prevent the autoimmune havoc.
Ive had digestive issues my entire life, heart burn that use to bring me to my knees. Dropping dairy meat and eggs and I haven’t had ANY of these problems in 5 years. It was basically overnight that I felt massive improvement. Unfortunately, because I cut all of the animal foods out all at once, I dont know which one is actually responsible for the benefit. Im sure all animal products I use to consume contributed to some extent.
I consumed a TON of milk as a kid and adult, but a couple of years ago my body started a revolt and I stopped consuming dairy when I vomited every time I did. I also had to stop consuming gluten because I had a reaction as well. One phone call with a health coach led to me adopting a whole foods plant based diet. My health drastically improved. I fell off the wagon once and got really sick again, but I'm back on tract now and haven't had dairy in at 2 years. Processed food makes me sick so I stick with wfpb. I don't even look at dairy.

I was an athlete at one time - doing 5k's and triathlons. The reason why people eat dairy chocolate milk after exercising is for the magnesium in chocolate (plus caffeine - which helps with muscle recovery), which relaxes muscles. Milk has potassium and sodium - which replace lost electrolytes. It also has whey - which is a recovery protein for building muscle mass after tearing muscle to build it. So you don't need milk for magnesium - it has nothing in it. if you want to relax muscles - you can use bananas for potassium and baking soda for the salt. It also neutralizes acids formed from exercise. Milk is inflammatory with its acids and just adds onto the acid load - which means you're breaking down muscle just to build up more - which makes no sense. It likely would lead to extra pains - which is what happened to me when I drank chocolate milk after exercise. Instead - I recommend (if you eat chocolate, which I don't) - chocolate, bananas, baking soda, and a high protein oat milk (as it has the same electrolytes as milk and the proteins too). I personally like pea milk - so that works too. Both together is perfect! However, I developed something called an athletic lunch - which is way better - rice protein, orange juice, and berries (for antioxidants in recovery). The truth is - you shouldn't feel pain after you exercise - as muscles don't really have pain-sensing nerves - those're under your skin. Instead that's a sign there's an issue with acid overload or an injury - which should be tended to - rather than think 'no gain, no gain' - which isn't true! By going back to the gym - you can cause injuries and acids to get worse.
Please look into raw milk. It is not the same as conventional milk; it is much, much different and much better since it was not flash-boiled (pasteurized) and homogenized.

I’m new to the vegan plant base diet and one of the things I was worried about when I did my research was how to get my vitamin B12 and omega 3 fats and I found out that Ka’chava which is a plant based protein powder give you your daily intake of vitamin B12 and a 12 ounce of butternut squash gives you your daily requirement of omega 3.

Cheese consumption is going up and milk is going down because often people get an upset tummy and other nuisances with milk. But not so much with cheese.
I was so wrong about my diet. Used to fear sugar but I would add some cow milk to my coffee. Giving up dairy definitely made me feel better, even before going fully plant based. Less bloating, less acne, more energy.
Aloe vera contains 75 potentially active constituents: vitamins, enzymes, minerals, sugars, lignin, saponins, salicylic acids and amino acids. Vitamins: It contains vitamins A (beta-carotene), C and E, which are antioxidants. It also contains vitamin B12, folic acid, and choline.
Lactose is not required for an adult human body but, saturated fat is definitely required. In fact, our body is composed of a mixture of monounsaturated, saturated and polyunsaturated fats.
Listen to other episodes. They've mentioned many times that fats, the healthy ones, are found in small quantities in almost everything including fruit and veggies. If you eat a varied whole food plant based diet then you get all the fat you need without any meat or dairy.
I only drink 2 spoons of organic heavy cream with my coffee. It is the only way I can drink it. I am not sure if it is so bad for me. I suffer from chronic constipation and stopped milk and gluten completely for 3 months and did not help much. I still do not eat gluten but indulge with my heavy cream. Life is a trade off. Ideas on constipation relief. I have tried so many things. Thank you!
I gave up coffee 3 months ago, along with my only dairy then, also organic heavy cream. Now I drink celery juice in the mornings instead and I have a lot of energy, focus and my digestion is finally regulated - could also be from everything else I cut out to make way for plant foods 🤷🏽♀️ (meat, eggs, oils, dairy, etc.); either way, I feel good and now I don't want to go back. Best to you! Hope you find something that works for you!
Now there's all kinds of talk about vegetables being bad for us. The animal based diet is taking hold. There needs to be debates between these experts as to what really is good for us. It's exhausting trying to make sense of, and for every vegetables based person there's an animal protein person.
I was hoping to hear an actual analysis on the contents of cows milk, instead I’m hearing a hit piece with no analysis 😏 Going to stick to fasting & eating whatever I want, seems to still be the key.
One point about vitamin b12 I never see in these debates is that in current CAFOs coalamin/vitamin b12 is always suplementented to animal feed, so there is very little difference between a direct suplementation in a pure plant based diet and an indirect b12 consumption from a "second-hand" integration - actually, the former is simpler and much more economical !

I have a concern. I carry one copy of the APOE4 allele. My pattern is E4/E3. The users on the APOE4 info website and Dr. Steven Gundry all say that APOE4s cannot eat a high carbohydrate diet and must stick to avocados, olive oil, non-starchy vegetables, and some fish. Indeed, 2.5 hours after eating 8 small purple yams (1.5 to 2 lbs.), my blood glucose is still 148 mg/dL. I would hate to replace yams, beans, fruits, and oats with avocados and olive oil, but my glucose just is not improving despite eating extremely little fat. I once went on a low carbohydrate diet for several years to control my acne which did not go away despite a low fat high carbohydrate plant based diet, but had to stop because my cholesterol and LDL became elevated. Now I no longer have acne, but my glucose is still unable to be controlled. I never drank dairy back then when I had acne and still do not consume it.
Plz comment on ghee as well from india. I have heard that after milk undergoes fermentation into curd it changes the properties which are good for us.After which butter is extracted from it. Butter is then heated to make ghee.

(18:35) “milk consumption is flagging” 😳😳 That’s surprising because, as a vegan, it seems to be in everything! (Even potato chips!) I am constantly shocked when reading ingredients on packaging. 😕
@Ldy Della Absolutely👍, as sales continue to flag, what’s the bet they don’t suddenly discover it’s an essential additive for gasoline? (Better than putting it inside a human body!)
I actually did give up milk and I actually had bad experience: my teeth softened, I started to lose my hair, and had bad skin problems, and loss my muscle strength and had joint pain. When I upped my vitamin intake Vitamin D, Calcium, B12 et al. It wasn't enough. I am now back to drinking milk and I feel so much better and no longer have any of these issues. So I'm definitely on Milk Is Good Team. By the way, I am a Young Adult, so my issues were definitely not due to age. I'm pescatarian and exercise regularly.
As far as what Dr Barnard said about indoctrinating children and having a customer for life - knowing what I know now about dairy, I feel irate about the "got milk" poster that was portrayed in the school lunch line.
I stopped listening when saturated fats were made villian. We absolutely need saturated fats and as much as possible. I do think that milk is bad but not for the reason stated here.. #1 is whey protein and #2 is growth hormones.
With this extremely important knowledge, according to RUclips algorithms, isn't the Dairy Industry misinforming the public at their health expense, and anything claiming dairy is good for humans, be taken down? #canceldairy
Dairy has never bothered me in any way. I use a cup or so of whole milk in morning coffee and cheese whenever I choose. Not a single symptom. 57 yrs old.
Assuming your assertions are correct it's just your personal experience, i.e. anecdotal. We can't really draw general conclusions from one person that apply to everyone. When we put many people together and study them, we can draw conclusions and apply those to everyone more accurately. So, it's possible you have exceptional dairy-tolerant genes that also manage high-fat consumption well, and that you really don't have any issues because of dairy. That doesn't mean that dairy is healthful, nor that it doesn't affect most people adversely. There is real evidence that saturated fat is the cause of many illnesses, and so advocating anything with saturated fat is dangerous.
I have been a milk drinker all my life. I enjoy 2 to 3 glasses of non-homogenized creamline milk daily. It is produced by a small, local, family-owned dairy. I'm 67-years-old and I've been in excellent health all my life. I'm much more concerned about the effects of sugars added to alternative "milks" than the alleged evils of dairy.
Be grateful that you are not intolerant (as are the vast majority of people)… and if you have ever had a cheese migraine I promise you will never look at cheese in the same way again. As for the cholesterol, hope you reach 70.
@@annwilliams6438 My LDL in April this year was 115. HDL 42. My average blood pressure is 115/68. I am largely a vegetarian (I do eat sardines). I'm guessing I have a pretty good chance of seeing 70 unless I'm run over by a dairy truck. 😉
MILk is good for human health if person has the lactase enzyme to digest it.Milk promotes good microbiome,even human babies depends on formula milk derived from cows milk for survival whenever mother milk is unavailable.
Milk can be very healthy for you if you have the genes for it. Many people in the world don't handle dairy well and shouldn't use it. Those that have the genes for it actually do better with it. Our genes have a lot to do with what we can digest and use as food. You do have to avoid hormones and antibiotic fed cows. Go low fat if you don't want fats. But if you want to avoid diabetes ,avoid breads and pasta as they are the worst for diabetics. Seafood ,nuts, wheat, and beans can be a major poison for many people also if their genes are against them. These are very nutritious foods for those with the genes to handle them. What I'd like to see is studies that take into account genetic variations of groups. One size doesn't fit all when it comes to food.
When I had stage 4 cancer I cut bread and pasta because I had to take prednisone for chemo and that raises the blood sugar very high at those huge doses. My blood sugar shot up to 300 , I stopped eating breads/pastas/cereal completely and watched my carb intake and it went down to 75. I never stopped whole milk and had to consume 2000 calories a day. I still lost a lot of weight. I can't consume beans unfortunately, and omega 3 fats are the best for me. I reintroduced breads and pasta in moderation(small amounts) and my blood sugar went up. Pure sugars aren't good for you and sodas/excessive fruit juices are some of the worst things for people with diabetes.
Ps I'm cancer free even though it had a metastasis to my bones before it was diagnosed. Apparently we stayed on a base in Michigan that is a superfund clean up site as children and many in my immediate family developed different cancers because of it.
iv broke my tibia and in a rebab hospital. I have bad gurd here. I go home tomorrow. But I threw up today just now. I had grilled cheese today. I switched to water only.

I have an arm Exercycle at home and the physical therapist gave me exercises for me in the wheel chair. tomorrow morning I can have oatmeal and fruit cup for breakfast. I picked brown sugar because they don't have stevia but Splenda which with aspartame Ihear is bad for your brain. I HAD TO LOSE WEIGHT and gained here. I have osteoporosis that's why my tibia got broken when I fell.
milk is like other products it might not get on with some people and is good to others like meat or chicken. it all depends how it work with inner system .but it can be best for people who.might be concern best is to boil the milk and that is that safer with drink or foods one never know happy days.
I spoke to a professional opera singer once & she confirmed that avoiding all dairy products for several days before a concert kept her throat & voice clear (this has been the cases for decades), so are you on a dairy-free diet full time I asked ? Mostly she told me. Purely anecdotal “proof” of the inflammation dairy causes.
Absolutely! buy the book "Fiber Fueled" written by Will Buldiewicz MD, MSCI. His own personal story to wellness is inspiring. a Positive health change.
You can put a lot of junk in chocolate milk which is why I stopped drinking chocolate in elementary school. I should have gone a step further and stopped consuming all dairy altogether in grade school. I would have at least had clearer skin.
its prety obvious today, that we re not goig to get to the end of this. to many vested interested.so forguet science for a while. and lets look at mother nature, which has time on its side. the healthiest people on earth, live on dairy, the massai, esquimos and alote of tribes. the sardinians, have the worlds highest life expectancy, they live on average till they are 87 years. health is a package, not one ingridiente.
Don't be fooled though, most nomadic peoples were mostly vegan... it's just that they were displaced by farmers because their land was farmable. So, Mongolia, the Arctic are some of the only places left to nomads, and so that's what people think of when they think of nomads.
@@jussilahteenmaki3475 I disagree. Yakutians (Saha, Tungus) of East Siberia used to have one of the highest percentage of individuals reaching age over 100 years, being deprived of mangoes and avocados, and surviving pretty well in a climate where annual temperature variation is from minus 50 in winter to plus 35 in summer.
All the lies we've been told about dairy over the years makes me wish we were told to change our diet sooner. It's a shame many of us were made to eat animal foods without the actual truth about their dangers to our bodies 😡😞. But better late than never to make changes 😃.
Yeah this is true! I can't have oat milk for this reason, because simple sugars are bad for my Crohn's disease. I was recommended to do any other non-dairy milk
@@smudge8882 But why don't you drink WATER? Like most of the people. And what kind of oat milk you are talking about? American poison (95% sugar solution) or real oat milk?
@@jussilahteenmaki3475 I never said I didn't drink water. I feel like you're being unnecessarily hostile? And I'm talking about store bought oat milk. They sweeten it in a similar process as what is used to turn corn into corn syrup, although instead they use oats. That's why if you read the label (at least using American labeling standards), it states it has added sugars despite sugar not being an ingredient. This is why oat milk is typically sweeter than other plant milks that don't have sugar as an ingredient. The issue with my Crohn's disease is that I can't have simple sugars like that.
Well I guess if you were to take on board a large selection of food/nutrition videos posted on RUclips we would be eating nothing. Almost everything we eat has been slated for being bad for us somewhere along the line. Some 'don't consume' I've seen include rice, bread, pasta, meat, dairy, poultry, tuna, coffee, nuts, fruit and even a good few vegetables. But of course, there are also plenty videos which contradict those completely.

I only drink 2 spoons of organic heavy cream with my coffee. It is the only way I can drink it. I am not sure if it is so bad for me. I suffer from chronic constipation and stopped milk and gluten completely for 3 months and did not help much. I still do not eat gluten but indulge with my heavy cream. Life is a trade off. Ideas on constipation relief. I have tried so many things. Thank you!
I gave up coffee 3 months ago, along with my only dairy then, also organic heavy cream. Now I drink celery juice in the mornings instead and I have a lot of energy, focus and my digestion is finally regulated - could also be from everything else I cut out to make way for plant foods 🤷🏽♀️ (meat, eggs, oils, dairy, etc.); either way, I feel good and now I don't want to go back. Best to you! Hope you find something that works for you!
Denise A. Thank you so much Denise and I am so glad you are doing so well. I have been feeling better by adding more plant base foods and IF.
@@kettymanno7256 that is wonderful! Keep it up and may you continue to experience only success in your health!
Try adding more raw foods and salads before lunch and dinner. Apple, cucumber, tomato , papaya etc. It helps me.
Now there's all kinds of talk about vegetables being bad for us. The animal based diet is taking hold. There needs to be debates between these experts as to what really is good for us. It's exhausting trying to make sense of, and for every vegetables based person there's an animal protein person.
I was hoping to hear an actual analysis on the contents of cows milk, instead I’m hearing a hit piece with no analysis 😏 Going to stick to fasting & eating whatever I want, seems to still be the key.
Absolutely LOVE Dr. Barnard
Absolutely love Samantha Harris
One point about vitamin b12 I never see in these debates is that in current CAFOs coalamin/vitamin b12 is always suplementented to animal feed, so there is very little difference between a direct suplementation in a pure plant based diet and an indirect b12 consumption from a "second-hand" integration - actually, the former is simpler and much more economical !
Can you please make a video on dairy detox? When I cut out dairy nobody warned me about dairy detox and I felt awful for a few days until my body got adjusted to not eating dairy anymore

@@cmdunn1972 I don't think I was addicted to dairy for say, I never actually liked milk and dairy products I just ate them because I thought they were healthy so quitting dairy was easy but I had no idea my body would go through withdrawal symptoms to where I felt so awful a few days a week no energy and my stomach felt so awful until my body got adjusted to not having it in my body

If milk is so good for people, why are so many people allergic to it and why does it cause mucus.
I have a concern. I carry one copy of the APOE4 allele. My pattern is E4/E3.
The users on the APOE4 info website and Dr. Steven Gundry all say that APOE4s cannot eat a high carbohydrate diet and must stick to avocados, olive oil, non-starchy vegetables, and some fish.
Indeed, 2.5 hours after eating 8 small purple yams (1.5 to 2 lbs.), my blood glucose is still 148 mg/dL.
I would hate to replace yams, beans, fruits, and oats with avocados and olive oil, but my glucose just is not improving despite eating extremely little fat.
I once went on a low carbohydrate diet for several years to control my acne which did not go away despite a low fat high carbohydrate plant based diet, but had to stop because my cholesterol and LDL became elevated. Now I no longer have acne, but my glucose is still unable to be controlled.
I never drank dairy back then when I had acne and still do not consume it.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EXPERT ADVISE. 8=)
As always,it was great information, Friday is my favorite day to watch the podcast you bring Chuck,thank you very much.
I heard "bad fat". Laughed, remembered how biased you all are and changed video, bye bye.
I have no acne since I dont take milk (but yoghurts)
So much valuable info! Thank you.
Plz comment on ghee as well from india. I have heard that after milk undergoes fermentation into curd it changes the properties which are good for us.After which butter is extracted from it. Butter is then heated to make ghee.
Is feta cheese made fro goats and sheep milk bad for you ? Is it bad for enlarged prostate ?
I gag at the prospect of ingesting dairy products says the milkman's daughter (1960s). Lol
An 8 ounce glass of milk has as much saturated fat as 5 strips of bacon.
The bad part of the milk is not the saturated fat. Saturated fat is in fact healthy and fine. Get your facts right, kid
@@monokumannius4522 no it isn't. It raises risk for heart disease. There is no reason to consume saturated fat.
@@V_Deity if you think that's unhealthy, then just let me eat those saturated fat. I eat those on daily basis (virgin coconut oil (full of saturated fat), beef fat, meat, pork fat) etc and I am lean. CAC-test 0, low triglyceride, high HDL, high LDL. And before you comment, my LDL is high, more than your normal range recommended by doctor, but it is fine as my small dense LDL is within normal range. Probably this concept isnt known to you. Learn more. Thanks
@@monokumannius4522 that doesn't offset the fact that you're eating carcinogens. Sounds like you're coping with high LDL and you just make up some factoid you saw in a video that probably doesn't even apply to you. Eat death, become death. Not even ethical
@@V_Deity from what basis do you think that meat is carcinogen? Even if it is carcinogen, it doesnt offset the nutrient it contains. Too much nutrients to avoid. And carcinogenic things dont scare me as it is easy to reverse the effect by prolonged fasting. I really do eat fat and animal products with some green veggies
Hello ! Did you mention thefact that soya milk was healthier then ordinary milk ?

(18:35) “milk consumption is flagging” 😳😳
That’s surprising because, as a vegan, it seems to be in everything! (Even potato chips!) I am constantly shocked when reading ingredients on packaging. 😕

Hello all!
I actually did give up milk and I actually had bad experience: my teeth softened, I started to lose my hair, and had bad skin problems, and loss my muscle strength and had joint pain. When I upped my vitamin intake Vitamin D, Calcium, B12 et al. It wasn't enough. I am now back to drinking milk and I feel so much better and no longer have any of these issues. So I'm definitely on Milk Is Good Team. By the way, I am a Young Adult, so my issues were definitely not due to age. I'm pescatarian and exercise regularly.
Seemed like you didn't get enough calcium. I am pro milk but lack of calcium can be solved with other food sources
If we can eat a cow, can we not drink its milk? Also Saturated fat is good for us.
Is there a difference between vitamin D and Vitamin D3? I only ever see the D3.
As far as what Dr Barnard said about indoctrinating children and having a customer for life - knowing what I know now about dairy, I feel irate about the "got milk" poster that was portrayed in the school lunch line.
I remember those posters
Brilliant! Sharp and Very enlightening ! Kudos to both doctors....
I eat 4 tums a day for osteoporosis. I had vitamin deficiency before sl I get a massive does 2 times a month 50,000 units.
You guys are not talking about A1 and A2 milk, your cows have A1 milk thats the problem.
Bless this dairy so that I can afford it and so that it is healthy for my body and my mind and strengthens my musculature.
I stopped listening when saturated fats were made villian. We absolutely need saturated fats and as much as possible.
I do think that milk is bad but not for the reason stated here.. #1 is whey protein and #2 is growth hormones.
Organic Raw milk and raw cheese without additives in moderation is good for my Crohn’s disease.
With this extremely important knowledge, according to RUclips algorithms, isn't the Dairy Industry misinforming the public at their health expense, and anything claiming dairy is good for humans, be taken down? #canceldairy
Dairy has never bothered me in any way. I use a cup or so of whole milk in morning coffee and cheese whenever I choose. Not a single symptom. 57 yrs old.
Assuming your assertions are correct it's just your personal experience, i.e. anecdotal. We can't really draw general conclusions from one person that apply to everyone. When we put many people together and study them, we can draw conclusions and apply those to everyone more accurately. So, it's possible you have exceptional dairy-tolerant genes that also manage high-fat consumption well, and that you really don't have any issues because of dairy. That doesn't mean that dairy is healthful, nor that it doesn't affect most people adversely. There is real evidence that saturated fat is the cause of many illnesses, and so advocating anything with saturated fat is dangerous.
I have been a milk drinker all my life. I enjoy 2 to 3 glasses of non-homogenized creamline milk daily. It is produced by a small, local, family-owned dairy. I'm 67-years-old and I've been in excellent health all my life. I'm much more concerned about the effects of sugars added to alternative "milks" than the alleged evils of dairy.
Be grateful that you are not intolerant (as are the vast majority of people)… and if you have ever had a cheese migraine I promise you will never look at cheese in the same way again. As for the cholesterol, hope you reach 70.
@@annwilliams6438 My LDL in April this year was 115. HDL 42. My average blood pressure is 115/68. I am largely a vegetarian (I do eat sardines). I'm guessing I have a pretty good chance of seeing 70 unless I'm run over by a dairy truck. 😉
@@luiswells2419 great reply 😂
Thank you
We know that the dose makes the poison, so in that regard, if you use a little bit of whole milk as a coffee creamer regularly - is that bad for you?
vegan industry vs dairy industry ?
MILk is good for human health if person has the lactase enzyme to digest it.Milk promotes good microbiome,even human babies depends on formula milk derived from cows milk for survival whenever mother milk is unavailable.
Milk can be very healthy for you if you have the genes for it. Many people in the world don't handle dairy well and shouldn't use it. Those that have the genes for it actually do better with it. Our genes have a lot to do with what we can digest and use as food. You do have to avoid hormones and antibiotic fed cows. Go low fat if you don't want fats. But if you want to avoid diabetes ,avoid breads and pasta as they are the worst for diabetics. Seafood ,nuts, wheat, and beans can be a major poison for many people also if their genes are against them. These are very nutritious foods for those with the genes to handle them. What I'd like to see is studies that take into account genetic variations of groups. One size doesn't fit all when it comes to food.
When I had stage 4 cancer I cut bread and pasta because I had to take prednisone for chemo and that raises the blood sugar very high at those huge doses. My blood sugar shot up to 300 , I stopped eating breads/pastas/cereal completely and watched my carb intake and it went down to 75. I never stopped whole milk and had to consume 2000 calories a day. I still lost a lot of weight. I can't consume beans unfortunately, and omega 3 fats are the best for me. I reintroduced breads and pasta in moderation(small amounts) and my blood sugar went up. Pure sugars aren't good for you and sodas/excessive fruit juices are some of the worst things for people with diabetes.
Ps I'm cancer free even though it had a metastasis to my bones before it was diagnosed. Apparently we stayed on a base in Michigan that is a superfund clean up site as children and many in my immediate family developed different cancers because of it.
iv broke my tibia and in a rebab hospital. I have bad gurd here. I go home tomorrow. But I threw up today just now. I had grilled cheese today. I switched to water only. I have old fashioned oatmeal at home and frozen blueberries thawed. But I am suffering with gurd in this hospital. today is June 26. I gained here too. I have an arm Exercycle at home and the physical therapist gave me exercises for me in the wheel chair. tomorrow morning I can have oatmeal and fruit cup for breakfast. I picked brown sugar because they don't have stevia but Splenda which with aspartame Ihear is bad for your brain. I HAD TO LOSE WEIGHT and gained here. I have osteoporosis that's why my tibia got broken when I fell.
milk is like other products it might not get on with some people and is good to others like meat or chicken. it all depends how it work with inner system .but it can be best for people who.might be concern best is to boil the milk and that is that safer with drink or foods one never know happy days.
Keto is Atkins 2.0
I spoke to a professional opera singer once & she confirmed that avoiding all dairy products for several days before a concert kept her throat & voice clear (this has been the cases for decades), so are you on a dairy-free diet full time I asked ? Mostly she told me. Purely anecdotal “proof” of the inflammation dairy causes.
I listened to the whole presentation. My own PERSONAL opinion is the stench of your biasness detracts from your conclusions.
I take raloxiphene to protect bones and breast.
Got rid of dairy years ago and got rid of Asthma and Allergies including so-called "seasonal" allergies 🤷🤷🤷

You can put a lot of junk in chocolate milk which is why I stopped drinking chocolate in elementary school. I should have gone a step further and stopped consuming all dairy altogether in grade school. I would have at least had clearer skin.
Milk helps to sleep because of lactose ( glucose) and some saturated fats, which makes you brain get high. I’m personally out of dairy.
If you can ignore the cramps...
Saturated fats also are part of how people get Alzheimer's disease. Saturated fat isn't good for the brain; the body makes all it needs
@@AnHourOfWolves
I’ve ignored all dairy long time ago. Just tried to explain why people like it ..
its prety obvious today, that we re not goig to get to the end of this. to many vested interested.so forguet science for a while. and lets look at mother nature, which has time on its side. the healthiest people on earth, live on dairy, the massai, esquimos and alote of tribes. the sardinians, have the worlds highest life expectancy, they live on average till they are 87 years. health is a package, not one ingridiente.
I wonder how Mongols and many other nomadic people even made it to 21st century, drinking milk and eating meat all along.
They did, but still die young. For reproduction an average 40 years is enough, but for a full life a 90+ is to aim.
@Bill T Still have.
Don't be fooled though, most nomadic peoples were mostly vegan... it's just that they were displaced by farmers because their land was farmable. So, Mongolia, the Arctic are some of the only places left to nomads, and so that's what people think of when they think of nomads.
@@jussilahteenmaki3475 I disagree. Yakutians (Saha, Tungus) of East Siberia used to have one of the highest percentage of individuals reaching age over 100 years, being deprived of mangoes and avocados, and surviving pretty well in a climate where annual temperature variation is from minus 50 in winter to plus 35 in summer.
@@AnHourOfWolves Speaking of displacement, Mongols had once created the largest empire in entire history of humanity in terms of continuous land.
Oh my fuckin shit. So is it good or bad
Susan pissin me off with little chuckles before she goes into a statement.

All the lies we've been told about dairy over the years makes me wish we were told to change our diet sooner. It's a shame many of us were made to eat animal foods without the actual truth about their dangers to our bodies 😡😞. But better late than never to make changes 😃.

Oat milk is made through a chemical process. The byproduct is sugar . Not perfect, but better than cow’s milk .
Cow´s milk is made through a process too. Much more complicated than oat.
Yeah this is true! I can't have oat milk for this reason, because simple sugars are bad for my Crohn's disease. I was recommended to do any other non-dairy milk
Sounds awful.
@@smudge8882 But why don't you drink WATER? Like most of the people. And what kind of oat milk you are talking about? American poison (95% sugar solution) or real oat milk?
@@jussilahteenmaki3475 I never said I didn't drink water. I feel like you're being unnecessarily hostile? And I'm talking about store bought oat milk. They sweeten it in a similar process as what is used to turn corn into corn syrup, although instead they use oats. That's why if you read the label (at least using American labeling standards), it states it has added sugars despite sugar not being an ingredient. This is why oat milk is typically sweeter than other plant milks that don't have sugar as an ingredient. The issue with my Crohn's disease is that I can't have simple sugars like that.
Yuck. I cannot stand the taste of dairy...so gross. When I was a kid, they made me drink it, then I brought it all up.

Great exposé.
Best advice is to give up eating altogether.
Well I guess if you were to take on board a large selection of food/nutrition videos posted on RUclips we would be eating nothing. Almost everything we eat has been slated for being bad for us somewhere along the line. Some 'don't consume' I've seen include rice, bread, pasta, meat, dairy, poultry, tuna, coffee, nuts, fruit and even a good few vegetables. But of course, there are also plenty videos which contradict those completely.
True. I'm convinced that life is hazardous to our health.
