I lost 36 pounds in 5 months giving up dairy and got clear skin

I've been without dairy for the last 22 days..I really miss cheese in all it's forms 😩 but in return, my stomach has gone flat, I've lost the man boobs (which I've never been able to do with regular diet) and my skin is a lot clearer.. Definitely worth it.

The ear infections, mucous build up, and overall lowering of the immune system is enough reason to give up the contaminated dairy.

Also another good source of calcium is Sesame seeds. Those sesame seed snacks or even hummus/tahini

S having so much inflammation and GI symptoms that I finally went cold turkey and eliminate dairy and coffee, and splenda and no added sugar, surprised I lost 25 lbs in 8 weeks. I feel so much better!

Starting tomorrow no more dairy for me 🙂

[amiesewell]

I have way too much dairy each week and need to make conscious decision to reduce my consumption.

My belly is slowly going flat since I gave up milk

[wills]

Thanks so much! Just switched for good. Dairy gives me stomach cramps and makes me feel bloated

[MR-fest]

I have Crohn’s. My doctor recommended me to get rid of dairy. I am going to start. Today was my first day. I definitely felt less bloated. I want to permanently stop eating it, because I want to remain in remission. Thank you for the video.

I have just purchased and tasted the NOT MILK brand and I am impressed!

What made you decide to walk away from your father’s Baskin-Robbins empire?

When my uncle, Burt Baskin, died of a heart attack at the age of 54, I asked my dad if he thought there could be any connection between his death and the amount of ice cream he would eat. (He was a very big man who ate a LOT of ice cream.) My dad said, “No, his ticker just got tired and stopped working.” I could understand why my father would not want even to consider the possibility that there might be a connection between ice cream and heart disease. He had by that time manufactured and sold more ice cream than anyone in the history of the planet. But I felt a responsibility to look into it. And I came to the conclusion that ice cream, which is full of saturated dairy fats and sugar, was indeed linked to heart disease.

An ice cream cone isn’t going to kill anyone, but the more you eat, the more likely you are to have heart disease, diabetes, and many other problems. If you’re in the ice cream business, you want people to eat a lot. That’s the business model. And I didn’t want to make my living selling a product that might be undermining anyone’s health. Also, I visited the large commercial dairies where Baskin-Robbins got its dairy products, and I saw how the cows were treated. It broke my heart to see them treated so poorly. I found the idea of profiting from such cruelty to be appalling.

You wrote your first book, Diet for a New America, in 1987. What has changed since then?

There is a lot more awareness now that animals in factory farms and feedlots are routinely subjected to horrible conditions. And a lot more people are standing in opposition to this systematic cruelty. And there is also a lot more awareness about the connection between industrial meat production, greenhouse gas emissions, and the destabilization of our climate.

Milk is equal to colds, cough and nasal allergies

[benlogan]

Good work. Way to support health and love animals.

My parents were those boomers who gave me a glass of milk for dinner every night. Until I went off to college and stopped drinking milk I released I’m probably lactose intolerant or allergic in some way since my body doesn’t become as bloated and my hands and feet become less sweaty.

Egg shells are made up of 99% calcium carbonate (the most bioavailable form of calcium known to humans). One half an egg shell provides the body with 1000mg of calcium carbonate which is the equivalent to 5 cups of regular milk. In addition to the calcium, the translucent layer on the inside of the egg shell is pure collagen, the building blocks of cartilage, tendons, ligaments, tissues and more.

One of the downsides to going dairy-free is having to watch your protein intake. I had 65/30-35/10-15 macros and am now calorie tracking to get it back to a healthier ratio for muscle growth.
I also cannot eat soy and tree nuts except for coconut.

[marcramirez]

I decided to start taking dairy out of my diet. Yesterday or the day before. Cuz I kept farting and it smelled extremely bad.
