I have heard that, but do t want to risk it, tbh. I had an allergen test done by my GP after two years vegan, and I’m still allergic to meat and milk; but ok with fish and eggs, so started to eat those again.
I'm wondering if it is all components of milk that upset you. Eg might 5% Greek yoghurt work (most of the whey is strained out) or alternatively might lactose free milk and cheese be OK? But I can quite see that experimenting could be scary. And also expensive if you bought items it turned out you couldn't eat.
They don’t think it’s lactose, but some other component of cow’s milk - I can have sheep and goat dairy in small amounts. Luckily there are loads of alternatives these days!
I love the true Greek feta cheese made with sheep and goat milk. I also love the French goat cheese logs, but daren't buy them as I can't stop until I've devoured the whole thing.
Many gym-goers are totally ignorant of nutrition. They think that protein is only to be had either in bars with the word "protein" on the packet or in tubs with the words "whey protein". This stuff should be taught in schools.I'm amused by the obsession with whey protein some people have (not you, the people promoting it as the best thing ever). It's a byproduct of the dairy industry once you've made all the nice things out of the milk - which also explains why it's cheap. I supposed I should be pleased that people are managing to make use of it
Yeah, it’s a triumph of marketing, that’s for sure. I’ll make myself a shake with almond milk and salted caramel food flavouring if I’m really short on protein for the day. My twenty quid bag of pea protein has lasted several months, tbf - I bought it in the spring when I started keto.I'm amused by the obsession with whey protein some people have (not you, the people promoting it as the best thing ever).

Thank you for quoting Paleomedicina. I have been eating their diet for four weeks now. I want my vitiligo to go into remission. It's too late for me for it to help my T1D as you have to start the diet within six months of diagnosis. Their longest standing type one has now gone five years without having to inject insulin. They have a 100% success rate with treating autoimmune illnesses. The diet would be classed as very restrictive by most people but I've come from eating Carnivore so it's just a natural progression for me and I really love it. It's a carnivore diet with an emphasis on organ meats particularly brain and liver. It differs from Carnivore in that you have a 2:1 fat/protein ratio to keep you in nutritional ketosis.
and so to me is as misleading as Kevs law of seven and a half (units to grams for evening tea) as it can vary from day to day from all the many variables that can affect a T1.
The Laws of Small Numbers - “Big inputs make big mistakes; small inputs make small mistakes.” (quote from "Diabetes Solution") I can't see anything wrong with that.I've got to say I'm struggling with the aforementioned 'law of small numbers' as it would suggest that it is a mathematical rule and it isn't
I absolutely agree. I find it tragic that so many people even here are ignorant of the choices they have.
I'm sorry but if someone hasn't used insulin for 5 years then they are not in any way shape or form a T1 diabetic, Type 1 cannot be put into remission, whatever these esteemed people say.
Fair comment. As it was I who posted the topic, I hope I am allowed to say that I do like these free-ranging discussions, which go after all rather like the best conversations in real life. As long as there is not a distressed OP failing to get the help s/he needs because all the potential helpers are off topic having fun, does it really matter?
When I see how many pages of discussion there have been, I feel rather proud, as if I were hosting a very successful party. Given that the research cited was rather preliminary, I'm not sure it could have supported very many on-topic comments. I have learned a lot from various posts, as well as enjoying the contact with a range of nice people.@Alexandra100 . As the OP I think you posted an interesting thread. Personally I feel that the thread as it stands now bears no relevance to your initial post. But hey , if you are getting positive feedback then that’s got to be good for you.
