Milk and Parkinson’s

I came across an interesting video today.

The video says that there is a definite link between milk consumption and Parkinson’s disease. I was surprised.

Dr Mischley has been saying this for years with regard to any type of dairy.

.... Even butter?

What you want to avoid is lactose. Cream, most cheese and butter are ok. Butter made from grass fed like kerrygold is good. Ghee is even better.

There is growing evidence between dairy and a lot of health problems. Best to avoid.

I was diagnosed with Parkinson's aged 41, my family ran a dairy and I certainly drank alot of milk!!!

I was always a big dairy consumer. I use to also haul milk for a trucking company. We took milk to Blue Bonnet Ice Cream. As a guest waiting to get unloaded we got to eat all we could but weren't aloud to take any off site. I gained 70lbs doing that job. I have almost totally cut out dairy except for some cheese and butter ( kerry gold) and a lot of my gut issues have been resolved. I have found really good alternatives for most of them. and of course in moderation.

I owned a cheese shop and upped my cheese intake at the time I was first showing symptoms

I don't think milk CAUSES PD, but if you have the genes for PD, I estimate it might possibly accelerate the disease progression. Plus phlegm!

Literally millions of people are drinking milk, as a drink, in coffee, on cereal, shakes etc. If true, there should be many many more people diagnosed with PD than there are, so logically there must be something else happening.

Apart from a couple of studies showing a correlation between milk consumption and PD, are there any "real" studies which have confirmed that drinking milk causes or accelerates PD? The studies that I have heard about don't really prove anything, do they?

Also, if butter is supposed to be fine, what about yogurt? Does anyone know?

‘The science of Parkinson's’ provides a well-readable, English-language summary of literature. The scope is that there indeed seems to be an increased chance of Parkinson's when drinking a lot of milk (more than half a litre per day). It's just about milk, eating other milk products like cheese and yoghurt doesn't seem to increase that chance of this disease. 🍀
