Lactose intolerance is an important subject at times in Health Holistic chat. Many feel that we should never drink milk after we are weaned. Calcium is found in many foods but seems to be so handy in dairy products that most of us reach for them. I think all of us should be concerned and ask ourselves how dairy makes us feel. Many have terrible problems with it so we should all ask ourselves how it should be used in our meal planning. |
***
Between 30 and 50 million Americans are lactose intolerant. Certain ethnic and racial populations are more widely affected than others. As many as 75 percent of all African-Americans and Native Americans and 90 percent of Asian-Americans are lactose intolerant. The condition is least common among persons of northern European descent.

What do the following World Champion athletes all have in common, besides strength and endurance? They must be big meat eaters, right?
Henry Aaron All Time Baseball Home Run Champion Dave Scott - 6-time winner of the Ironman Triathlon (the only man to win it more than twice!) Sixto Linares - World Record holder in the 24-hour Triathlon Paavo Nurmi - 20 World Records and 9 Olympic Medals in distance running Stan Price - World Record holder in the Bench Press Andreas Cahling - Mr. International Body Building Champion Roy Hilligan - Mr. America Body Building Champion Ridgely Abele - 8-Time National Champion in Karate
All of these athletes are VEGETARIANS! There are many, many more top athletes who have discovered that eating meat decreases strength and stamina.
The strongest animals on Earth are also vegetarians: Elephants, oxen, horses, mules, camels, water buffalo, etc. The Silverback Gorilla is 3-times the size of a man and is 30-times stronger! A Silverback Gorilla is so strong it could throw a 200-pound man across the street like a Frizbee! What does a gorilla eat? Raw fruit and vegetables.
John Robbins, in his book, Diet for a New America, reports that "...study after study has found that protein combustion is no higher during exercise than under resting conditions."
The Journal of the American Medical Association in 1978 warns athletes (and non-athletes) against taking protein supplements, stating "Athletes need the same amount of protein foods as non-athletes. Protein does not increase strength. Indeed, it often takes greater energy to digest and metabolize the excess protein." |
