Well, this is going to suck...
Jan. 4th, 2011 06:55 amAs some of you will be aware from my FaceBook, I'm having to give up dairy. It's not just the lactose that's the problem - I figured that out several weeks ago. Recently, friends of mine told me that one of them gave up milk products totally and had a huge benefit from it, so I looked into caseine-related problems and found that this could well be it.
So, I'm giving up dairy totally for a few weeks to see what happens. Hopefully my gut will behave itself, which will also confirm the caseine thing. Then, if that test is successful, I'll be gradually re-introducing it in small amounts to see how much I can tolerate. If it isn't successful, I'm going to eat a truckload of cheese and feel depressed about having a gut that hates me for no good reason.
Wish me luck :-)
