Re: Help please with dairy free diet please - Thanks for answers

[Guest guest]

Hello,

Thanks everyone for the answers regarding calcium. I have been away

from the user groups for a while so I have not answered the

questions that my note generated. Regarding butter... we were told

to use lots of butter to aid detoxification. For some reason butter

doesn't cause a problem. I am wondering if cooked milk is the

source of the problem since raw seemed to cause fewer problems. At

this point I am now devoting my time to compensating for milk

instead of incorporating it in the diet.

Thanks,

Gail Z.
