Isn’t this amazing? I just kept thinking, "why didn’t I learn this in medical school?" Is the dairy lobby so persuasive that a cheap, simple, safe, life-changing intervention like this remains buried? Until now! If you appreciate learning what your child’s pediatrician probably never did, please consider making a donation (https://nutritionfacts.org/donate/) to the 501c3 nonprofit charity that keeps this website going. I don’t make a penny off the site, but it does require substantial server and logistics costs. 

Avoiding dairy may be important for infant health too. Watch my 3-part video series:
