Lactard?

05.07.2008 · Posted in Bodily Functions

I’ve been going to an acupuncturist for the last month or so. At the latest session, she suggested that I cut dairy from my diet for awhile to see how things went. I was seriously devastated. Could it be? Was I, after all these years, a lactard? I really didn’t want to believe it. I don’t even get any of the symptoms. Some people I know have major pooping issues upon consumption of even the tiniest amount. I don’t have that problem!

Despite the fact that I don’t even consume a lot of dairy products, there are still essentials. For one, butter. What? Give up butter? CRAZY! Then, there’s also ice cream. I don’t even eat a lot of it! Or how about bleu cheese? There’s milk in milk chocolate! Where do I draw the line? Is it okay if it’s processed? Or is dairy just BAD for me?

I know there’s Lactaid for the lactose intolerant, but I’m skeptical on whether or not that will help if I’m still eating dairy. It will get rid of symptoms that I don’t even have… And apparently it’s dairy that’s screwing up with my inner organs, so I’m giving it a shot anyway. This seriously kills.
