The inability to digest the protein in cow's milk may cause humans to get ear infections and strep throats. |

First, WTF is wrong with your settings? Or is that how you type? Second, BS. Most people have no problem digesting casein. Many people, though, are lactose intolerant -- their intestinal flora aren't up to handling that particular carbohydrate. There is absolutely no evidence -- short of the crap that certain anti-dairy activists (not mentioning names, but someone keeps cross-posting his hysterical diatribes here) make up -- that dairy proteins increase the risk of ear and strep throat infections. Contaminated milk (or other foods) CAN lead to strep infections. That has NOTHING to do with proteins, as you allege. http://www.niaid.nih.gov/factsheets/strep.htm |

You got that backwards,THEY are not capable of breaking the disaccaride, the intestinal flora is--this leads to excessive gas (which gotta go out somewhere). -- Dr. Dickie Skepticult member in good standing #394-00596-438 Poking kooks with a pointy stick |
