I just think you're damaging your kids by not giving them milk, which is the most nutritious thing you can feed a kid. Also, your kids may be lactose intolerant due to other stuff in their diet, like gluten or other toxins in plant-based foods that lead to a leaky gut.

- kasplat 7y agothere is no evidence that gluten is bad for you if you're not gluten-sensitive.
- hkeide 7y agoYet gluten sensitivity is on the rise
- Kye 7y agoThings can seem to be on the rise when awareness and detection improve. For example: the number of known exoplanets grows by the day, but they existed before we knew about them.
- beerandt 7y ago>awareness and detection improve. Increase might be a better word than improve. Number of "diagnosed" cases might have gone up, but I'd argue accuracy of diagnosis has gotten much much worse. There was a recent study showing only about 1 in 10 people who claimed to be allergic to antibiotics actually had any allergic or other negative response to them.

- wtmt 7y agoNobody is damaging their kids by not giving milk unless they're not giving mother's milk (or human milk). There are alternatives that may be more suitable and better than the milk of a cow or a buffalo (or some other mammal).
- matthewmacleod 7y agoAh of course, your robust remote medical diagnosis of "leaky gut" seems much more suitable than an actual assessment by an actual physician. It's fine to research and make decisions about your diet which are in line with your own understanding, philosophy, and dietary requirements. Please don't pretend that your views on this are particularly useful for others.
- rsynnott 7y agoRealistically, it is a lot more likely that the kids are lactose intolerant (over half of humanity) than that they have celiac disease (under 1% of humanity). Also, there's a fairly foolproof test for lactose intolerance.
- klipt 7y agoOver half of humanity become lactose intolerant as adults. Almost no infants are lactose intolerant, for obvious evolutionary reasons (mother's milk is full of lactose).
