Spectacular live with the amazing @denise_carreiro_nutritionist about her latest book: “The Impact of Milk Consumption on Human Health”. (11/2024)
I held an incredible live chat with Dr. Denise Carreiro about the potential negative impacts of consuming milk and gluten. Don't miss the opportunity to check out this enlightening conversation!
TIP:
In a recent live, held in September 2023, I had the privilege of chatting with renowned Chef Marcelo Horta (@chef.marcelohorta). We discussed foods that can be harmful to your health and the reasons why it's essential to avoid them on your table.

MILK. Is it really essential in a healthy diet? I'm going to give MY opinion, as a gastroenterologist, which is obviously not absolute, and the subject is very controversial. Why don't I recommend drinking milk to my patients?
Milk is not essential for adults. It has even been removed from the food pyramid published by Harvard. Google it and you'll see. Let's look at some facts that need to be considered.
Substances injected into cows to increase milk production, known as RBGH (recombinant synthetic growth hormone), are also secreted into the cow's milk and go directly into her stomach. It is associated with an increase in breast cancer, leukemia and early puberty in children.
RBGH decreases the cow's resistance to infections, requiring the use of antibiotics so that, once again, it doesn't decrease milk production, which goes into the gastrointestinal tract of those who consume it and alters the intestinal microbiota.
The cow's diet, again to increase milk production, is based on grains, mostly genetically modified (soy and corn), which also alters the intestinal microbiota.
Milk protein is highly allergenic and can cause loss of intestinal barrier integrity, or “LEAKY GUT”, as well as DISBIOSIS.
The imbalance of METALLOTIONEIN, a zinc-dependent protein due to genetic susceptibility (more frequent than we imagined), causes, among other things, poor digestion of milk casein and gluten, generating the so-called CASEOMORPHINE, a peptide that mimics the effects of opiate drugs such as morphine.
In this way, milk can be addictive!!! The more you shouldn't consume it, the more you want it!!!
It provides well-being, but can affect learning, social interaction, motor and sensory function. Has anyone who LOVES milk ever tried to do without it? It's horrible! I used to be dependent on it myself, but I got rid of it ?
So, do you want to drink milk? If so, look for milk from cows that graze and don't receive hormones and antibiotics. Be aware of your choices. I suggest reading the book “Food and Behavior Disorders” by Denise Carreiro.

Cheeses that go through an aging process, some of which even spend 12 months in an oven! Aren't those healthy? Example: those from the Serra da Canastra.
