I believe ( my belief ) dairy proteins (and other proteins) for some of us
will
'confuse' the chemistry in the body in a way which make the calcium reach
where it was not intended. The bones is not only used to 'hold' the body
upright.
It is also used as a reservoire for calcium which is involved in most
neuro-
transmitting activity.

perhaps you may be able to detect calcium deficiency as depression, lack of
concentration, sleep disturbance, loss of energy or more 'hard evidence' as
cavities in teeth, white spots in nails and tendensies to bone fractures.
