Just a note on Dante's milk intolerance. My DH was thought that may be the case, but actually the dairy was fine, it was other things he was eating that he couldn't tolerate. The milk just was part of the meals. A blood work up came up with very interesting things - yeast, cane sugar, wheat, oats, potatoes in any form (even baking powder can contain potato starch), tomatoes. So for instance he would have oatmeal at breafast and feel bad afterwards - the milk was blamed. Or cream of potato soup, the milk was blamed. It may not be Dante's case but just a thought. My husband was conceived in a very toxic mining environment, but moved as a toddler. No one but us and the ND's have made this connection, or will entertain thoughts about this connection. He is also of Serbian descent and I have found numerous sites about autoimmune issues concerning that too. So hard to unravel the mystery - keep up the quest!Throwback at Trapper Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12418370592659531735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666832117222969242.post-26615724887524758452009-09-20T07:59:14.083-04:002009-09-20T07:59:14.083-04:00Thanks for your personal story of your husband!

His mother has had severe RA since she was a young adult, he has finally been diagnosed with Crohn's (after 40 years of his problem's being blamed on stress, stern teachers, food, etc.) And now his family blames his Crohn's on me because I am a proponent of raw milk. However his doctor with the correct diagnosis said he has had this for years, long before he ever met me and was "forced" to ingest raw dairy. Crohn's is the same as Johne's in cattle, which can be corrected sometimes with balanced mineralization. Meanwhile my in-laws continue to condemn an natural approach to any of their maladies and thus have found no relief.<br /><br />My cattle herd has been the most helpful, inherited traits in them have shown us a clearer path to understanding our health and/or inherited unhealthiness. And a good ND helps too!<br /><br />Great post Jessika!Throwback at Trapper Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12418370592659531735noreply@blogger.com
