Many have found, as I did, that dairy, even raw dairy, had significant negative side effects. Butter appears to be the only exception and I assume that that is due to it being pure fat with no lactose or milk proteins to cause allergic reactions.
You'll find many different approaches to a more healthful way of eating on this board and everyone will do their best to help. My own observations are that younger folks can get away with dairy and more carbs and still do great. Those of us on the other side of 40, especially if we are starting to have health problems, need to be a little more selective as to what we eat.
I now eat only meat and fat from grassfed beef with just a pinch of salt for seasoning and just about every problem I had cleared up. No more high blood pressure, sore joints, skin rashes, high blood sugar, migraine headaches etc. - all went away.
