Second only to gluten as a dietary trigger for auto-immune thyroid issues, is dairy. That's why doctors and health practitioners looking at a diet to support their thyroid patients will often recommend giving up both gluten & dairy.

Symptoms of dairy intolerance include reflux, bloating, diarrhoea, respiratory symptoms (eg cough, sinusitis, asthma) and skin reactions (eg psoriasis, eczema).

In this episode we cover

• dairy intolerance - the issue of casein
• lactose intolerance
• types of dairy to avoid
• dairy as possible cross-reaction to the thyroid gland
• dairy as a trigger for thyroid disease
• how & why to eliminate dairy
• how to know if you have a dairy intolerance
• practical alternatives for milk, cheese, butter etc.
