TMHS 118: Scary Dairy - The Pros And Cons Of Consuming Dairy Products

Published: Aug. 19, 2015, 2:23 a.m.

For a lot of us, nothing says love like some delicious milk and cookies.

Or maybe it\u2019s ice cream that you just can\u2019t do without? Or hard cheeses? Or yogurt? Or maybe you get really sexy and dip your food into fondue?

Whatever it may be that pulls on those heart strings for you, one thing is for certain: Dairy has a huge emotional connection with people in our world today.

This, my health seeking friend, is at the very center of the situation\u2026

When it comes to dairy, a lot of people may be aware of the ill effects, but if you try to take it away they\u2019ll cling on to that Ben & Jerry\u2019s container like it\u2019s the bonafide love of their life.

They\u2019ll say, \u201cI\u2019ll follow your fancy nutrition advice Mr. Health Guy, but I\u2019m not giving up my dairy!\u201d

First of all, I\u2019m not the guy that\u2019s interested in taking things away from people. But if it\u2019s causing you health problems like diabetes, high body fat, and allergies (you\u2019re about to learn about all of that stuff in a minute) then maybe you might want to leave it alone for a while.

As I step back so that I don\u2019t get stabbed with an ice cream scooper\u2026 I\u2019m here to share why, in fact, dairy is so addictive and at the same time so harmful for most people.

Today we\u2019re going to breakdown some long-believed myths about dairy in a way that\u2019s going to blow your mind (and possibly stop you from blowing up bathrooms if you are lactose intolerant).

In all seriousness, what you\u2019re about to learn today will be life-changing for you and the people you care about. It\u2019s not that dairy is inherently \u201cbad\u201d, it\u2019s just the way that it\u2019s being produced and consumed today that can cause good people a lot of problems.
