so I want to answer the question can

dairy actually affect your hormones or

not well let’s just take a look at what

milk is milk is a product that is

designed to feed a calf a growing calf

it’s loaded with a lot of different

hormones primarily estrogen okay

and also IGF different types of

estrogens IGF is a growth hormone and so

as estrogen now the hormones in milk can

target the prostate okay the breast the

uterus the ovary when I was in practice

I found a high correlation between women

coming in having fibroids and them

consuming a lot of dairy so you have

milk cream half-and-half sour cream

cream cheese cheese itself yogurt butter

the fattier the dairy the more hormones

okay now I’m not against dairy but some

people are already estrogen dominant

they have hormonal imbalances they may

have a prostate enlargement they may

have cysts in the breast as fibrocystic

breast or they might have a problem in

uterus or endometriosis which is extra

growth tissue around the uterus or they

might have cysts in the ovaries or even

polycystic ovarian syndrome as well

that’s basically the condition where

your androgens are too high because

there are various cysts in the ovary

stimulating that specific hormone so if

you have any of those you definitely

need to put dairy to the side for a

while but everyone else needs to realize

that these hormones in the dairy can

create an effect on your body to

minimize the damage definitely go for

organic dairy and grass-fed dairy if

possible at least with organic you’re

not getting GMO type feet you’re getting

non-gmo soy beans and corn but if you’re

doing commercial milk you’re definitely

getting the GMO as well now I personally

do a small amount of cheese every day I

make sure that it is both organic and

grass-fed and I also consume a lot of

cruciferous food if you consume

cruciferous vegetables it will actually

give you the anti-estrogen ik effect and

I’ll help clean up the excess

amount of estrogen that’s in your body

and lastly I would always tell my

patients to try this experiment just for

one week completely give up all of your

dairy and just see how you feel and a

certain percentage of them would do very

very well and other people would feel no

difference and that may give you a few

clues to determine if you are sensitive

to dairy or not thanks for watching if
