Joel, I love it but milk seems to aggravate the osterarthritis in my
hands and wrists so I have pretty much given it up.
On page 16 & 17 of her book "Beat PSORIASIS the natural way", ISBN
0-7225-2586-9, Sandra Gibbons blames it. Also, in "Enter The Zone", ISBN
0-06-039150-2, Barry Sears, Ph.D. on page 102 gives a good background and
explanation of the problem.
If you think to take a lactose digesting enzyme (health food store) with
it the bad effects are reduced. The book by Barry Sears is worth the
price.
I would appreciate hearing about any good books others have found.
