The word is out that dairy may not in fact, be part of a healthy diet. Some say it’s fine, as long as it’s organic, but let’s talk about some reasons to ditch the breast milk (cows, not nursing mommies) .
It’s well known that dairy is mucus forming in the body. It causes a buildup throughout the digestive system that exacerbates respiratory issues, as well as causing difficulty in the assimilation of nutrients in the large intestine.
