Health Info

When it comes to consumer health, the media is contaminated with exaggerated stories and misinformation. Corporate and special interest groups pay big money to sell you their side of the story. The dairy industry is no exception. The Dairy Council and radical anti-dairy campaigners are both guilty of squeezing tidbits of self-promoting information from studies. We have done our best to compile the facts, using only information from resources and reference materials that we view as reputable.

All About Milk - What is it made of?  What nutrients will I be missing without milk?  Should I be concerned about hormones and antibiotics in milk?  What are homogenization and pasteurization?

Calcium - This is our complete guide to calcium.  We have included information on how much calcium you need, calcium rich foods, how to choose the best calcium supplements, and dairy free tips to building and keeping strong bones.

Milk Allergies - Many people speak of milk allergies and lactose intolerance as if they are the same condition, when in reality they couldn't be more different.  Read on to discover the true nature of milk allergies including the signs and symptoms.

Lactose Intolerance - Lactose intolerance affects 30 to 50 million Americans, and millions more worldwide.  Frequent digestive symptoms may not be a simple coincidence.  Learn more about lactose intolerance, and see if it may be of concern to you or someone you love. 

Weight Loss & Dairy - While the dairy council is touting milk for weight loss, emerging doctor based diets are stating just the opposite.  This section offers more information on the battle of the bulge, and where dairy products fit in.

Other Medical Issues - Dairy has been linked to numerous health conditions.  Study after study has shown connections between the consumption of milk products and acne, migraine headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer, just to name a few. 

Dairy Rotation Diet - If a dairy free diet seems out of reach, but you are still interested in the health benefits of cutting back, then consider a rotation diet.  More flexibility, with moderate consumption, a good choice for many.
