Dr William A. Ellis is one of the most outspoken critics of the traditional view of milk. A retired osteopathic physician and surgeon in Texas, he is the past president of the American Academy of Applied Osteopathy. He says there is overwhelming evidence that milk and milk products are contributing factors in allergies, arthritis, chronic fatigue, eonshpation, muscle cramps, obesity, and heart problems. He argues that there are two main reasons for heart problems not related to cholesterol. The other main reason why milk causes heart problems is that milk drinking leads to over-weight problems and obesity, because it is very high in calories and makes people more prone to heart attacks than the people of normal weight.
Milk products are often as damaging.
Other problems such as chronic fatigue and muscle cramps may relate to poor absorption. Dr Ellis has performed over 25,003 blood tests which show that adults who use milk products do not absorb nutrients as well as adults who don't. This is for two reasons. Eventually, HCL-produeing glands in your swomach break down, and you don't absorb the nutrients in your food. Secondly, mills and cheese tend to generate excessive mucus in the sinus and lungs, which causes respiratory ailments.
