thick glass of milk to settle your stomach? It's soothing to drink, and at least you are getting something nutritious inside you.
This remedy has been around for years in countries where milk is popular. Until the 1980s, doctors would sometimes recommend milk to patients with duodenal ulcers (in the intestine just beyond the stomach) to help ease their discomfort.
 Milk is in fact slightly acidic, but far less so than the gastric acid naturally produced by the stomach.
So it was thought long that milk could neutralise this stronger acid and relieve the pain.
Milk does help provide a temporary buffer to gastric acid but studies have shown that milk stimulates acid production,
which can make you feel sick again after a short period of relief. In 1976, ten hardy research participants put themselves forward to test this out.
They had emptied their stomachs and were fed then milk through a tube up their nose. An hour later the contents of their stomachs were sucked out again
and then gastric acid secretion was measured every five minutes. The researchers found that milk caused an increase in the secretion of gastric acid for the next three hours,
which could explain why people with ulcers typically experience pain a few hours after a meal.
It's not just milk though. Studies comparing coffee, tea, beer and milk found they all stimulated the secretion of acid.
Beer and milk have the greatest effect, which suggests, somewhat surprisingly, that the ph of a drink is irrelevant
when it comes to acid production. So what is the ingredient in milk that causes the stomach to produce acid?
low-fat and fat-free milk. All increased acid secretion. How about calcium? When they tried the experiment using low-calcium milk,
less acid was produced, but there was an exception. The patients who had evidence of duodenal ulcers,
The other ingredient which might stop milk from settling your stomach is the milk protein casein.
Either way, milk is recommended no longer for people with ulcers because it might do the opposite of soothing them.
One unlucky group was assigned to drink only milk oe two litres a day in total,
while fewer than expected got better in the milk-drinking group. Milk appeared to hinder the healing process.
But could very large quantities of milk present a problem? In 1980,21, 000 adults in the city of Tromso in Norway were invited to join a health study where they would be followed for seven years, during
They found that heavy milk drinkers (defined as four or more glasses a day) were more likely to develop an ulcer, especially amongst the men.
whether the milk was full fat or skimmed. So was the milk causing the ulcers?
The difficulty here is that some people with pain drink milk to ease the symptoms temporarily,
so perhaps they were consuming milk as a result of the ulcer. But the risk was also high in those drinking large quantities of milk,
despite not having symptoms, so it's hard to disentangle the causality. So although milk temporarily coats the lining of the stomach,
buffering the acid in your stomach and making you feel a bit better, the relief might last for only twenty minutes or so.
In other words milk may have many benefits, but settling an upset stomach isn't one of them. If you would like to comment on this article

When good milk turns badwilliam Kisaalita has cold milk on his mind. The tissue engineer runs a program at the University of Georgia in the US that develops new technologies to help farmers in his native Uganda,
But now he has turned his attention to milk producers in his home country. Many small-scale Ugandan farmers own a few cows,
which are milked twice a day to sell locally or to larger dairies. But here's the thing-for it to stay fresh,
the milk has to be cooled oe easier said than done in areas with intermittent or no electricity.
I've seen farmers pour their milk away at the end of the day Kisaalita says. Sometimes as much as half of it.
 And when sour milk is poured away, so too are profits and a valuable source of nutrition.
The United nations, in fact, estimates that 27%of all milk in Uganda goes to waste, much of it due to spoilage.
So Kisaalita and his students began building a small-scale milk chiller that could hold 20 litres of the white stuff.
Traditionally, big dairy machines have an outer and inner tank with insulation in the space between.
Compressors, condensers and refrigerants are pumped through the system to rapidly chill the milk and keep it Cool it's a system that requires a constant electrical power,
and use a fraction of the biogas to run the milk chiller. The rest could be used for cooking or lighting.
As an alternative, he developed a milk chiller that runs on propane, which is cheaper and widely available locally.
and then add more milk in the morning. Then she could wait for the buyer who will give her the best price
because she knows the milk won't go bad. Kissalita is not the first person to try to solve the problem of keeping milk cool in soaring temperatures.
which the milk  containers  are placed. A big advantage of the system is that it can be made using local materials
and adapted for use to store everything from milk, fruit and certain medicines. In Ghana, for example, a modified design allows the mama mboga oe ladies who run market stalls oe to display her fruit

You have to race warm milk from thousands of villages to large collection centres, twice a day.
And if you don't chill milk within four hours of milking the cow the bacteria grows to a point where it just goes bad.

The company recently field tested a 750 litre device with India's largest private dairy.

#U s. Pushes Cheese Sales Despite Warning About Fat Dairy management, which has made cheese its cause is a marketing creation of the United states Department of agriculture the same agency at the center of a federal anti-obesity drive.
Then help arrived from an organization called Dairy management. It teamed up with Dominos to develop a new line of pizzas with 40 percent more cheese,
And Dairy management, which has made cheese its cause, is not a private business consultant. It is a marketing creation of the United states Department of agriculture the same agency at the center of a federal anti-obesity drive that discourages over-consumption of some of the very foods Dairy management is vigorously promoting.
Urged on by government warnings about saturated fat, Americans have been moving toward low-fat milk for decades,
leaving a surplus of whole milk and milk fat. Yet the government, through Dairy management, is engaged in an effort to find ways to get dairy back into Americans diets, primarily through cheese.
Americans now eat an average of 33 pounds of cheese a year, nearly triple the 1970 rate.
Cheese has become the largest source of saturated fat; an ounce of many cheeses contains as much saturated fat as a glass of whole milk.
When Michelle Obama implored restaurateurs in September to help fight obesity, she cited the proliferation of cheeseburgers
Dairy management has worked with restaurants to expand their menus with cheese-laden products. Consider the Taco bell steak quesadilla, with cheddar
extolling Dairy managements work without mentioning that the quesadilla has more than three-quarters of the daily recommended level of saturated fat and sodium.
Dairy management, whose annual budget approaches $140 million, is financed largely by a government-mandated fee on the dairy industry.
In one instance, Dairy management spent millions of dollars on research to support a national advertising campaign promoting the notion that people could lose weight by consuming more dairy products, records and interviews show.
even though other researchers one paid by Dairy management itself found no such weight-loss benefits. When the campaign was challenged as false,
and Dairy management would not comment. In answering written questions, the department said that dairy promotion was intended to bolster farmers and rural economies,
and that its oversight left Dairy managements board with oesignificant independence in deciding how best to support those interests.
The department acknowledged that cheese is saturated high in fat but said that lower milk consumption had made cheese an important source of calcium. oewhen eaten in moderation
and with attention to portion size, cheese can fit into a low-fat, healthy diet, the department said.
however, the Agriculture department tallies Dairy managements successes in millions of pounds of cheese served. In 2007, the department highlighted Pizza huts Cheesy Bites pizza, Wendys oedual Double Melt sandwich concept,
Relentless Marketing Every day, the nations cows produce an average of about 60 million gallons of raw milk,
And the majority of that milk has removed fat to make the low-fat or nonfat milk that Americans prefer.
A vast amount of leftover whole milk and extracted milk fat results. For years, the federal government bought the industrys excess cheese and butter,
an outgrowth of a Depression-era commitment to use price supports and other tools to maintain the dairy industry as a vital national resource.
This stockpile packed away in cool caves in Missouri, grew to a value of more than $4 billion by 1983,
In 1995, the government created Dairy management Inc, . a nonprofit corporation that has defined its mission as increasing dairy consumption by oeoffering the products consumers want,
where and when they want them. Dairy management, through the oegot Milk? campaign, has been successful at slowing the decline in milk consumption, particularly focusing on schoolchildren.
It has marketed also relentlessly cheese and pushed back against the Agriculture departments suggestion that people eat only low-fat or fat-free varieties.
In a July letter to the departments nutrition committee, Dairy management wrote that efforts to make fat-free cheese have foundered largely
because fat is what makes cheese appealing. oeconsumer acceptance of low-fat and fat-free cheeses has been limited,
oeask for whole wheat crust and half the cheese even as Dairy management has worked with pizza chains like Dominos to increase cheese.
Dairy management runs the largest of 18 Agriculture department programs that market beef, pork, potatoes and other commodities.
but Dairy management, which reported expenditures of $136 million last year, also received $5. 3 million that year from the Agriculture department to promote dairy sales overseas.
By comparison, the departments Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion, which promotes healthy diets, has a total budget of $6. 5 million.
Although by law the secretary of agriculture approves Dairy managements contracts and advertising campaigns the organization has become a full-blown company with 162 employees skilled in product development and marketing.
It also includes the National Dairy Council, a 95-year-old group that acts as its research and communications arm.
Dairy managements longtime chief executive, Thomas P. Gallagher, received $633, 475 in compensation in 2008, with first-class travel privileges, according to federal tax filings.

Disputed Research oegreat news for dieters, Dairy management said in an advertisement in People magazine in 2005. oeclinical studies show that people on a reduced-calorie diet who consume three servings of milk,
cheese or yogurt each day can lose significantly more weight and more body fat than those who just cut calories.
With milk consumption in decline, Dairy management had hit on a fresh marketing strategy with its weight-loss campaign.
a Dairy management official said it was inspired by newly relaxed federal rules on health claims and the ensuing oerapid growth of better for you products.
Precisely how dairy facilitates weight loss is unclear, Dr. Zemel said in interviews and e-mails,
Dairy management licensed Dr. Zemels research, promoted his book and enlisted a team of scientific advisers who oeidentified further research to develop more aggressive claims in the future, according to a campaign strategy presentation.

But by 2004, her study had found no evidence of weight loss. She said Dairy management took the news poorly,
threatening to audit her work. She said she was astonished when the organization pressed on with its ad campaign. oei thought they were crazy,
But in late 2006, Dairy management was still citing the weight-loss claim in urging the Agriculture department not to cut the amount of cheese in federal food assistance programs. oethe available data provide strong support for a beneficial effect of increased
dairy foods on body weight and body composition, two organization officials wrote, making no mention of Dr. Harvey-Berinos findings.
and dairy officials had decided to halt the campaign pending additional research. Dr. Zemel said he remained hopeful that his findings would eventually be upheld.
Dairy management, which allotted $12. 4 million for nutrition research in 2008, has moved on to finance studies on promising opportunities,
which Dairy management is promoting with the $12 million marketing effort. Called the Wisconsin, the new pie has six cheeses on top and two more in the crust. oethis is one way that we can support dairy farms across the country:
Dairy managements role in helping to develop Dominos pizzas included generating and testing new pizza concepts.
When Dairy management began working with companies like Dominos it first had to convince them that cheese would make their products more desirable, records and interviews show.
who led Dairy managements early efforts in promoting cheese to restaurant chains before leaving in 1997. By 1999, food retailers and manufacturers were coming to Dairy management for help. oelets sell more pizza and more cheese!

according to a memorandum released by the Agriculture department. Derek Correia, a former Pizza hut product innovations chief, said Dairy management also helped find suppliers for the extra cheese. oewe were using four cheeses, if not six,
and with a company like Pizza hut, that is a lot of supply, he said in an interview. And unlike with its advertising campaigns, Dairy management and the Agriculture department could point to specific results with these projects.

Working with some of the largest food companies, Dairy management has pushed also to expand the use of cheese in processed foods and home cooking.

Milk Helps with Weight Loss Got Milk? Milk does help you lose weight and has other health benefits as well.
Milk helps advance weight loss? Thats a surprise to most of us, because many of the most popular diet programs exclude
or minimize dairy products as part of their regimes. A two-year study shows not only that milk drinkers lose more weight,
but that Vitamin d has other health benefits besides preventing skin cancer. Researchers from Ben-Gurion University (Israel), the University of Leipzig (Germany),
the study found that those who consumed the highest dairy calcium content (average amount of two glasses of milk a day) lost about 12 pounds compared to participants who consumed the lowest dairy calcium content that lost an average of 7 pounds.
Vitamin d levels in milk, studied independently, showed that the skin cancer fighter also helped contribute to weight loss.
Fat-free milk is recommended. This study Dairy calcium intake, serum Vitamin d, and successful weight loss, is published online (previous to print) in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

#Milk from the Offspring of a Cloned Cow Being sold in British Stores A British dairy farmer said he was using milk from a cow bred from a clone Milk from the offspring of a cloned cow is being sold in British shops,
The FSA said it believed that the practice of selling milk from cloned cows and their offspring was illegal.
The farmer said that as part of his daily production he was using milk from a cow bred from a clone.
The milk was not being labelled or identified as being different from produce derived from a cow born naturally.
because he feared that consumers would stop buying his milk, made the claim to the International Herald tribune. He also said he was selling embryos from the same cow to breeders in Canada.
Earlier this month the European parliament voted to ban the sale of meat and dairy products from clones and their offspring.
The cows being used to produce the milk started life in the United states as embryos created from the eggs of cloned cows and the sperm of normal bulls.
The offspring produce higher quantities of milk than normal cows. In 2007 it was disclosed that eight cloned cows were born this way on British farms,
