- 8. Dairy products Milk contains Casein which is a very large protein bonded with calcium. For the body to utilize these it needs to be split by digestive enzymes. Humans stop producing these after the age of four. Therefore the human body struggles to deal with even human milk after weaning age. Cows milk contains over 300 times more casein then human milk and interestingly enough casein is used as a base in one of the strongest glues. It sticks to the stomach and the intestinal lining. www.drleonduplessis.com|2012 8
