Expert: Some components of milk may cause pathological reactions in the body
Milk products are considered an essential component of the diet, because they contain high percentages of the protein, fatty acids, and minerals the body needs.
Dr. Margarita Korolova, a nutrition expert, explains in an interview with Sputnik Radio how milk products can be consumed in case of lactose or casein intolerance.
She says: “The world has changed, and the soil on which what cows eat grows has changed, and their nutrition has not become completely natural, and the process of raising animals on large farms has also changed, as many ingredients are used that ensure the growth and safety of livestock. Therefore, dairy products have become a little different.” "In the composition. Human physiology lags behind the changing realities, and the immune system does not have time to adapt to them."
According to her, therefore, milk products can cause various pathological reactions in the body.
She says: “The body can respond with an immune reaction, in the form of skin diseases, frequent colds, and autoimmune diseases of the thyroid gland, internal organs, and joints. When patients come to the doctor to find out the causes of the disease, it becomes clear that one of the factors in the emergence of these problems are products Dairy, because the body cannot process it completely, and some of it remains in the intestine, where the sticky villi are attracted to it, causing a disturbance in the parietal circulation, and an immune response is formed. The immune system begins to produce antibodies, and large immune complexes are formed, and they actually enter the internal environment. "Wherever you are, there will be an autoimmune reaction."
If such symptoms appear, the doctor advises that a hidden food product intolerance test be performed to accurately determine the cause, after which a specialist doctor can be consulted to prescribe the necessary treatment.
