Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Opinion: I dont' find non-fat dry milk particularly useful- I've got a bit of lactose intolerance, in which non-fat milk is high (55% of calories are sugar!). Milk proteins have been implicated in possible association with diabetes type I etiology, and some recent studies suggest milk proteins might raise one's risk of prostate cancer. >From: Francesca Skelton <fskelton@...> >Reply- >< > >Subject: Re: [ ] nonfat dry milk? >Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 10:02:16 -0500 > >Yes.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Rodney, I had it all wrong. My answer to what babies do after drinking milk is "barf!" Peg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Hi Academy: It took me about thirty years to make the connection. But it is now clear as day to me that if I drink milk of any kind, including skim or non-fat dry, it makes me very tired for about 24 to 36 hours afterwards. So it was a serious drag on my 'productivity'. I keep non-fat dry milk around to use in very small quantities for making Pritikin sauces. But avoiding it has been a considerable help to me since I figured out what effect it was having on me. Others may or may not be similarly affected. But ask yourself what do babies do immediately after a feeding of milk? Rodney. > Does anyone use nonfat dry milk? Opinions? > > Anyone have a good source for bulk? > > Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Rodney: I hope you are talking about cow's milk wrt babies. Of course, for human babies the optimal food is nature's own (human milk). on 1/25/2004 12:36 PM, Rodney at perspect1111@... wrote: > Others may or may not be similarly affected.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Human milk for human babies, yes! Cow milk may not be a good idea. I think Rodney was referring to the tendency of babies, as well as himself, to want to fall asleep after a milk meal. Milk has often been advocated (warm, especially) as helpful in inducing sleep. >From: Francesca Skelton <fskelton@...> >Reply- >< > >Subject: Re: [ ] Re: nonfat dry milk? >Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 13:26:49 -0500 > >Rodney: I hope you are talking about cow's milk wrt babies.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Hi Francesca: Well my point is that it is my impression babies fall asleep immediately after drinking any kind of milk - human or cow's. I haven't had human milk in a very long time, but I do become very sleepy after drinking cow's milk and I am wondering if whatever it is that caused that may be the same ingredient that causes babies to fall asleep also. If it is then this phenomenon is unlikely to be unique to me. Just a connection that is worth looking out for - does drinking milk make you tired? If so it may be better to avoid it. I can say it is much beter for me to avoid it. For that reason. Being unable to keep one's eyes open at work at 3:00 pm is sometimes not appreciated : ^ ) Rodney. > > > Others may or may not be similarly affected.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Too bad about the no sleeping at work. Several studies have shown many beneficial effects from an afternoon nap, including increased alertness and productivity. I've often considered closing my office door and napping, but, due I suppose to the pressure to which you refer, I've not done it. >From: " Rodney " <perspect1111@...> >Reply- > >Subject: [ ] Re: nonfat dry milk? >Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 20:43:54 -0000 > >Hi Francesca: > >Well my point is that it is my impression babies fall asleep >immediately after drinking any kind of milk - human or cow's.
