Hi,
I'm using Strauss milk. It is non homogenized. I feel much better with less fat--more energy. However, I did not have gas with whole milk and I have it with low fat and skim. Skim seems to cause less issue. I love milk, feel quite energetic and very little body pain but with or without fruit in it, GAS!
I could try another brand, I suppose but Strauss seems cleanest. Any thoughts, suggestions? Rest of diet is fairly Peaty. I am tolerating white rice now, and yes, I know this is a starch but I don't eat tons. Also eating grass pastured eggs, raw and cooked without issue. Gas only occurs with the milk.
I've been slowly reducing my overall fat content and notice I have less intestinal issues, more energy, better sleep, less overall pain. I do Ashtanga yoga for my ritual. It doesn't feel like exercise. I would really like to be able to tolerate the milk but will look for other milks. I was fine with the whole milk but in general, I notice now that less fat feels better to me in my diet. I simply don't crave it anymore and it makes me feel uncomfortable if I eat too much. I love cheese and all the cheeses I eat right now are gooey, sheep or goat, but I don't eat tons of cheese.
Thanks for any suggestions.
P.S. I read ingredients now and lower fat milk has vitamin A added!! Maybe this is why. I would like to find milk that is low fat without added anything.
