First things first.
Raw dairy products are great nutritional sources.
They are great sources of bioavailable calcium which will support your thyroid, adrenal and androgen health (which includes LH) among other things.

Besides all that good stuff, they can also support your gut health through lactoferrin, L. rhamnosus and lactoperoxidase.
And these are just the tip of the iceberg.

But unfortunately as many people know, dairy can be a source of digestive distress so what we're going to do here is name a few of the most common reasons why people are reacting badly to raw dairy which brings us to the following misconception:
When we are talking about dairy, we are talking about RAW dairy.
Pasteurized dairy in the vast majority of cases, come from cows filled with antibiotics and hormones, they are fortified with toxins such as iron, sucrose, gums and even (i kid you not) canola oil in a lot of…

So the average carton of milk is like 60% milk (no this is not a joke and especially if you live at the States).
Now the biggest difference between pasteurized and raw dairy, inarguably is between pasteurized and raw milk.
For example, raw milk is abundant in lactoferrin which…

One other very common cause when it comes to why dairy can cause digestive distress is pathogen-related gut issues.

A zero-carb approach when it comes to addressing bacterial overgrowth won't backfire only if a person's thyroid is VERY healthy (this is not the case for most people).
Otherwise, the low-carb approach will mask the symptoms and then trigger a 10 times worse response.

So what environment allows these opportunistic microbes to grow?

Another cause which prevents people from being able to properly digest dairy is an unhealthy thyroid which is why i recommend you actually going and running some test if you've never done them.

Now here are also 2 steps that you can take in order to support your thyroid.
Step 1: Consume adequate amounts of thyroid supportive nutrients from whole foods.
These are:
1)Copper
2)Selenium
3)Zinc
4)Vitamin A + B12
5)Iodine
6)Vitamin D (sunlight on this one…

Now another common cause is consuming raw dairy/milk too close to meals since dairy need quite a lot of stomach acid in order to be properly digested.
So if you have a hard time digesting raw milk for example, do not drink raw milk 1-2 hours before and 1-2 hours after a meal) .…

To be honest if someone actually sticks with these tips for a while, he'll be able to digest dairy way better most of the time, but in the meantime, i think that it would also be a good idea to mention some good calcium sources that he or she good use.
