 Re dairy, you say some people, so for others dairy is fine?  
 dairy is basically calcium.  calcium is what clogs the arteries.  the dose makes the poison.

the reason there is so much calcium in dairy is the fetus has no real bones otherwise it would get stuck in vagina and never come out - dairy is meant to help the fetus solidify the bones.

for adults it helps to solidify your arteries ( make you nice and dead )

calcium also flushes magnesium out of the body.

this is regardless of any dairy tolerance or lack thereof.
 
 Dairy/calcium only clogs arteries if you don't get enough vitamin K2.  The K2 puts the calcium into your bones and teeth.  We all need a balance of calcium, magnesium, vitamin D3, and vitamin K2.  They work together.  It is getting out of balance that causes problems. 
 the problem is K2 supplementation literally causes blood clots 

the letter "K" in K2 basically stands for clots in German

all of you have two choices - accept me as your lord and savior

 Some people can't detect any inflammation from either the lactose or the proteins in milk, and don't fatten easily. It is probably ok for these people. The problem comes from people promoting the magical nutrition found in milk (esp raw milk) which is just not true
