Whats The Deal With Cheese?

Trying to figure out why cheese seems to cause more of a reaction to me than other forms of dairy. Any thoughts?

Well, that I don't know. Cheese is the only form of dairy that I really liked. I did use butter for some things. Can't say that either one bothered me more.

Food colorings?

Higher casein content, additives/colorants, iodized salt?

Don't eat any colored cheese. I have been avoiding dairy because it makes me tired, achy and my face breaks out. The other day, I caved and had a milkshake...and I felt just fine.

Yesterday I had a slice of provolone cheese and was broke out within hours. Hardly able to get off the couch today. Same thing happened when I tried a little bit of Feta on my salad too. I'm puzzled. Does cheese have higher casein content or something?

There's less water in it, so it might have a higher concentration of anything milk would have? It's higher in fat and fat is harder to digest? Butter is almost 100% fat, I believe, but the combo of fat and milk together with culturing might make it a more complicated food to break down.

I think it might be because of the fermentation. Mold is used to produce cheese. I know some others mentioned strong reactions to fungi.

I haven't had cheese for 15 years, because I looked 9 months pregnant 15 minutes after eating it.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Still unsure.....

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
