| >> you probably should eat a few dairy products,
Funny you should single this out, the only dairy products
I need to consume is Ben & Jerry's Ice cream and if my very
healthy Yoga friends were to have their way I'd not even have that!

707.2 | Who needs Dairy products? | MCIS2::SCHULMAN | SANFORD | Mon Dec 23 1991 14:54 | 6 |
| Why do you need dairy products? We need calcium, but animals, once
weaned never have any (save cats - something we do for them?) There are
some schools of thought that believe dairy products may in fact be
detrimental. Ask the many people who have no lactic tolerance.

| I guess I mentioned the dairy products for two reasons. The previous
notes mentioned in my orig. note, and because I have always heard that
you need calcuim. Can you get that from other foods besides dairy
products (ie milk)

Well, I did the paper a long time ago, but I can that the food
food combinations the author suggested were not based on fact.
With only a few exceptions, if you eat a balanced diet, with
all foods in moderation, food interactions are too trivial to
even measure.
If you would like, post some of the lists of foods that the author
claims interact - and at what times in the day they cause problems,
and I will address that.

Basic nutrition concepts and human physiolgy haven't changed much
in the last few years. I hope you don't assume that something has
been discovered to vindicate Fit For Life, because it hasn't.
It was then, and is still, flawed.

| .2> -< Who needs Dairy products? >-
No one needs dairy products, not even babies. There are always
alternatives that will supply the necessary nutrients. For example,
you could get all the calcium and vitamin D you need from proper
food selection and adequate sunlight.
Should you give up dairy products? Unless you have lactose intol-
erance, or object to foods with an animal original, no. Milk happens
to be a very good source of easily assimilated calcium.

707.6 | It works for me !!! | JUNO::JUPP | | Wed Mar 04 1992 15:03 | 18 |
| Well I will add, that I have been following Fit for Life for almost 2
years. I have never been a big Dairy product eater, and I must say
that the only side effect I seem to have "suffered" is that I have
almost got to my "Ideal" weight.
I have just got over a bout of Flu at Christmas, and that has been my
only illness in about 6 years.
I don't follow the book to the letter, by try to live by the
principles. Quite often the canteen food just makes it impossible to
follow the book (unless you want salad every day) so I when that
happens I have whatever I fancy.
Remember, they say in the book, that you can take it as seriously or as
lightly as you like, the only thing that alters is the rate at which
you loose weight.
Cheers Ian...

707.7 | FIT FOR LIFE, thankyou. | CTOAVX::CRONK | | Wed Feb 10 1993 14:04 | 4 |
| Thanks for the message Ian. One of these folks sounds like he
represents the U.S. Dairy Council. I have just started the program.
Early weight loss is rapid. The program is easy to manage even when
you travel.
