I love milk!!! But, I had to stop drinking it several years ago. I still have some in my cereal or coffee but I can't drink a whole glass of milk.

Since I stopped drinking milk before I was diagnosed with MS. I still have yogurt but the low fat or non-fat kinds. There are certain brands of yogurt I can tolerate better than others. I took a vacation from yogurt for a while and didn't experience any change in MS symptoms. Based on my own experiences, I don't think dairy products have any effect on MS. If you have GI issues, I can see how dairy would effect those issues.

I admit I don't drink much milk, but I do use Kefir in the occasional smoothie and I try to eat greek yogurt at least every other day.
I do like cheese, but I am trying to cut down on it...just too much fat for my fat gut

I thought I responded with a big "Thank you" be see I didn't send it. Thank you all for your thoughts on this.

Did we talk you back into having a little milk DOc, or are you allergic?

Have you thought of using the almond milk?

Yes, I really enjoy almond milk a "lota bit". I also like the Rice Dream milk too but almond milk is my favorite so far. Thank for the suggestion. Doydie.

I am fine with milk and with wheat. I follow the Swank diet and skim milk and grains are important on that diet, unless one is actually allergic or sensitive to these products. I think skim milk is an important part of low fat protein, and it is also low salt. But I don't overdo it. I felt terrible, in really great pain, when I tried to cut out gluten grains. I actually needed these grains for fiber, I think. There is no reason to cut these things out unless you really have a sensitivity to them. I do not. I have MANY sensitivities, so it's good I can eat some things like this without a problem.

Hi Sally,

Not quite back to milk yet but a little more cheese when before it was none at all. A little more milk chocolate but not tons so some more dairy things which is great. Thank you
