I don't drink dairy due to intolerance and I find it disgusting possibly for the same reason. I also don't like any milk substitute so I'm out of any target demographic anyway. However, as far as I know according to traditional Chinese medicine milk is considered a big no no.

Do you rely on traditional Chinese medicine? Why would you do that?

  I don't rely on it but I do get acupuncture from time to time. My wife is a tcm practitioner and I can vouch it works. I don't claim it substitute western medicine but it works very well along side it.

Try eating shredded carrots with coconut oil, olive oil and salt on an empty stomach once a day. In a couple of weeks try drinking milk again. If your milk intolerance is due to a bacterial overgrowth you should be able to tolerate it after that.

    Carrots are an indigestible fibre so they carry the coconut oil into your small and large intestine. Usually the coconut oil would be absorbed rapidly. The coconut oil then kills the bad bacteria lining your gut. The carrots on their own also absorb some of this bacteria and are excreted. You can do the same thing with bamboo shoots if you don't like carrots.

      Thanks for the answer! I actually love carrots as snacks, though I'm not sure how well they'd go with coconut and olive oil. Have to try I guess. Do you have any sources about coconut oil killing the bad bacteria in the gut?

        The evidence for this specific effect is pretty weak at the moment, but it's all good natural food anyway so you have nothing to loose. It worked for me so I'm passing it on. Here is what I have found and what motivated me to try it: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6768601/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6768601/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405844018308983 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S240584401... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5109859/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5109859/ Please let me know if it works for you or you find more research on the topic!

  I find the taste of milk so abhorrent I rather drink piss than milk. I can only eat dairy after its been cooked.

    I used to be the same. After the carrot therapy my tongue changed colour and milk tasted like the nectar of the gods.
