AND WE HAVE A WINNER !. Either that or someone who can't find their pitch fork.
?? really don't understand what I said for that reaction.
So don't eat ham and citrus fruit? What can I eat? Shall I just go and graze in the backgarden?
No, that's not the point. It was cut out in order to cure the migraines. At no point was it suggested everyone should do this.

Damn damn damn damn damn
No more Hawaiian pizza's! (is Pineapple a citrus fruit?)
I thought the case with the young boy with the migraines was more than that. They cut ham and citrus fruits from his diet. Things that most people would put in the healthy bracket.
They are healthy purely from a nutrition perspective, but there are foods that can cause or exaggerate migraine's.
When I was a kid I suffered migraines. GP suggested I avoid cheese & chocolate. I never ate much of either in the first place, but I guess that was just the medical opinion at the time.
I did find that drinking ice-cold Coca Cola helped my migraines though.
No idea why. And it didn't work with Pepsi, or any other cola type drink.
I personally don't like milk, and have fruit juice in my cereal instead. I can handle lactose as well as most.
A lot of people seem to be quite defensive when it comes to milk consumption. Just because your mums served you cows (or other non-human) milk doesn't mean it is good for you.
Some one needs to teach that girl how to shave properly too, no wonder she hated shaving she must have ended up with bad shaving rash and lots of cuts the way she did it!

Quite true. Though it's important to remember the same can be said for fruit juice.
The problem with ascribing any foodstuff in simple terms such as good or bad, is that invariably there will be a wealth of research that supports the counter position.
I use unsweetened almond milk on my breakfast cereal, to avoid the absolute certainty of being killed to death by cow's milk every time I eat breakfast ...
Solo - Is Green Tea allowed on the iDiet? Can I replace my water with it? Ta.

If I'm coming across as "defensive" that wasn't my intention, I'm bored at work (IT middle management for you) and reading ridiculous statements about how milk is bad for you seemed the perfect starting point for an argument.
Incidentally, most government guidelines indicate that some milk consumption is a good idea.

I assume this was lobbied for by the large amount of dairy farmers 
This thread was more interesting with Solo bashing round the head with the rules of mammalian milk consumption
I'm happy eating cows and don't see that drinking their juice is somehow worse.

Doctors go on about it, too. They can't all be lobbied by the dairy farmers... can they???

Do you make bolognese properly.. with milk and white wine.
If not, try it, fill yourself full of Win.

NHS doctors are employed by the Govt & are therefore obliged to spout whatever the latest 'Govt Guidelines' say, regardless of whether they think it's correct * ... gotta toe the party line and all that.
(*this may or may not be true)
It's not rocket surgery is it.
Sorry for the tangent, but that proper gave me the giggles, that did. I'm going to drop it into conversation next time I'm trying to get a point across and see if anyone notices.
I didn't see it but I'm going to watch it tonight, might be interesting. I'm off to see a Nutrition Therapist next week to try and resolve all my various aches and pains/illnesses and primarily my SAD which will start creeping in now pretty quickly with the darkness setting in 
sob sob.
p.s. you lot really can argue about ANYTHING. 
It really should have been condensed into a half hour programme but, nevertheless, there's always things to learn.
emma - good luck with getting sorted. Just make sure you don't get referred to a GP who wants to dole out ad's. Think you'll find though that there's a few on here who suffer with SAD.
Thanks CG, the main thing is I know I get it now which for a few years I did and it used to cause all sorts of problems. At least I can attempt to keep on top of it now I know what it is 
Going to have a watch on 4oD in a bit so mayb I can join in the arguments afterwards
Sorry I have to say it but drinking the milk of another mammal it just cant be right but we are raised to believe its normal so no one questions it.
Hi emma82,
my wife gets SAD and has been on some ADs for < 6 months, but she is having problems coming off and having to come off more slowly.
When she first came off and before the withdrawal problems I persuaded her to go to a nutritionist who got her eating a lot more protein and less carbs.
She felt the benefits of the diet pretty quick (also felt the effects of coming off the ADs pretty quick).
So hopefully you will see similar benefits.
For the SAD as well maybe you should find something to do in the dark that you look forward to, like night riding maybe. Then you have something to look forward to as the nights close in.
I like milk and cheese. If solo doesn't like it, I really couldn't give a shit.
really...Life, get one.
em82, good luck with getting your SAD sorted, sounds awful
Thanks turnerguy, I'm hoping the nutritionist will give me a bit of direction, I am literally crap with food even when I think I'm being good. Last year was the worst I've ever been with SAD, but was determined to not go down AD route and I'm glad I didn't really.
Cheers emz! I also like milk and cheese, especially really stinking French cheese. Preferably washed down with baguettes and red wine
