Yes. I was eating strict paleo for about 3 months and it fixed a lot of things for me. One of which was mild acne that I had for years. It totally went away. Now if I have a big bowl of ice cream, I break out like a 16 yr old. I'm now about 80% paleo, but the only dairy I have is the occasional slice of cheese. No acne issues at all. It took me a little while to learn that dairy was the culprit so I thought it might help Buck.

Not to derail this discussion, but I also noticed a HUGE improvement with my seasonal allergies. I went from taking prescription meds for it and being a mess to not taking anything and being fine. My youngest son had allergies so bad that he had to have breathing treatments sometimes after playing outside. We took him off dairy & he barely has any issues today.

In all of the years that we struggled with this crap why didn't a single doctor suggest that we stop with the dairy????? Greedy bastards!

I also lost 13 lbs in 3 weeks when I started paleo. I got absolutely shredded. That said, dairy doesn't make you fat. Taking in more calories than you're putting out makes you fat.

thanks for the info.

I don't eat cheese because it stuffs my nose up so bad I can barely breathe (plus I then snore enough to chase my wife to a different room). I eat a lot of non-fat Greek yogurt though and it doesn't seem to bother me. Neither did half and half or milk when I drank those. I think it has something to do with aged dairy more than dairy itself.

UPDATE: I'm dying.

I've been paleo'ish for over a year now and and I pound the dairy but recently found out that I have whey protein issue. Luckily this keeps butter and cheese in the picture.

I also have an egg yolk issue and when combined with whey causes eczema. My doc wanted to treat it with surface creams while admitting that it was likely a dietary issue. It went away pretty quickly.

Luckily I found a goose egg contact at the farmers market.

The paleo approach has been a huge success for me. My favorite part was seeing the look on docs face when we reviewed my recent blood test and I told him I was doing the opposite of what he's told me. Whole grains and veg/seed oils can lick my butt! Bring on the lard and coconut oil!

That's awesome. You should tell him you'd like your money back for his shitty advice.

If it fits your calorie goals, there's no problem.

Based upon what evidence?

Nippleprints.

Amazing how many dumbass doctors there are in the world.

How do you feel about lemur urine then?

Drink up. Duh!
