my daughter is now 6 years old and happy and healthy.
 
one of her issues was bedwetting almost every night. i took her to a  dr.  a 
chiropractor. and a sleep specialist.
nothing helped.
then my herbalist said to me.. when are you going to take this kid off of  
dairy?  
something in me clicked after 4 years.
i took her off of dairy cold turkey. or what i thought was cold  turkey.
sometimes you are eating dairy and dont know it.. so you have to really  
investigate every single thing you put into you mouth for awhile just to find  out 
if dairy is a problem.  that is where most people whose kids really are  
sensitive or allergic to dairy fail.
 
it became an experiment  for all of us. if she suddenly got eczema..we  would 
work backward analyzing what she had eating and almost always  there was 
hidden dairy or someone was sneaking her something that had  dairy in it.
 
my daughter stopped wetting the bed withing a few days. the constipation  
disappeared almost immediately.  
constipation
chronic ear infections
chronic sinus infection
severe snoring
sleep apnea
severe mood swings
eczema on her arms and scalp gone gone gone.
the most profound thing that stopped was the medications
 
no more sudafed
and robitussin or tylenol cold or ear drops or skin creams or breathe right  
nasal strips.
 
and i dont need any scientific evidence. i can simply give my kid a reese  
peanut butter cup to remind me of how aweful life use to be.
its very hard to accept this. I KNOW this for a fact and it is still a  
constant struggle to accept it as being true.
 
so those of you who are just curious or who have children with bedwetting  
and snoring and ear infections and whatever... you gotta hang in there because  
it aint easy to explore nontraditional solutions even if they make perfect  
sense.
 
Ingesting dairy is a very real and very serious danger to a very large part  
of the population.
