I recived a mail from a friend this day pointing to this link:

The headline says:

Lactose-Intolerant People Should Drink More Milk, Expert Says

..claiming that people who don't use milk have to 'train up' the digestion
to tolerate lactose.

As I understand things, the greatest problems to milk digestion is that
(very) many of us has problems with proteins in general, and that milk
proteins are doing more harm than most other proteins. The variety of
symptoms described by you guys here on this list indicates allergies as
well as other reactions.

The article also mentions the need for calsium. Calsium is essential as
bone building material.

..in Norway where I live, we are on the top of the statistics of the worlds
most milk-consuming countries, and with most cases of osteoporosis.??

What is not as well known as the fact that bones are made from calsium; it
is used for other basic purposes as well. Calsium ions are used as a
'communicator', and essential in neurotransmittion. But somehow the milky
way of getting calsium don't seem to work *right*, not for me anyway.....
It seems it's not allways available at the rigth time on the rigth place
for me... (joint-pains, sweating at odd times etc.)


On the bottom of the web-page, there was a link to the web-sites supporters.
Showed up to be companies who benefits on peoples allergies and other
common health-problems.

Medicine makers telling people to drink milk......

Well, I don't.
