Ehm, I just read through the entire thread but I didn't see where Syl was specifically telling someone that eating yogurt and drinking whole milk might be just fine for them. She only stated that that's what they used in that particular product trial. That is a fact, not a recommendation. I also agree that a minuscule amount of dairy in a supplement should be ok for most IBS sufferers. IBS is not like allergies when even a tiny amount can cause a deadly histamine reaction. After all, lots of people here have no problems eating soy or rice substitutes while these also often contain casein. I'm really sorry to see such harsh words here. One of the reasons I like it here is because I feel like this is a nice community of people trying to help each other. We can't see that on many different boards. I really wish it stays that way .
