Several years ago, the National Dairy Council reigned supreme with questionable (and eventually deemed illegal) promotions that were funded so heavily no one dared question their core message. But they couldnt fight the inevitable needs of human nature and the realities of science.

The fact is, dairy doesnt do every body good. Allergies, intolerance, autoimmune diseases, concerns about cancer, and awareness of sustainability issues are all on the rise. And many people, along with their doctors, are taking a strong interest in living dairy free. Even several Hollywood trendsetters have voiced dairy free as a dietary key to success.

For millions of people, simply cutting out dairy resolves most, if not all, of their symptoms, and helps reduce the risk of several major health concerns:

Dairy free is a top diet change recommended by dermatologists for people with acne, eczema, and other atopic skin conditions. Each year, I receive dozens of emails and comments from people who saw decades of acne clear and rashes resolve when they were strict about cutting out all sources of dairy.

Dairy consumption is directly linked to an increased risk of several prominent types of hormonal cancers, which have been on the rise in recent years.

In North America, dairy is one of the top three triggers for IgE food allergies, which exhibit almost immediate reactions ranging from urticaria (hives) to anaphylaxis. For the numerous families dealing with this condition, dairy free isnt an option; its a necessity.

Dairy is also one of the top triggers in non-IgE food allergies, which can have delayed onset reactions that present as gastrointestinal, respiratory, and/or dermatological symptoms. Eosinophilic esophagitis (EE), a gastrointestinal condition that is being diagnosed at increasing rates in both children and adults, is just one example of a non-IgE type allergy.
