348: Does dairy love you back… or is it low key sabotaging your skin, gut, and sinuses?

Today I’m sharing my very personal, very real journey with dairy, from going fully dairy free during my worst gut struggles to slowly rebuilding tolerance with cultured options like Greek yogurt. I’m breaking down why some forms, like stretchy melty cheeses, still wreck me, while others work beautifully, and why fat content has suddenly changed the game for my body.

We’re talking mucus, breakouts, lactose vs intolerance, A2, raw milk, portion size, and why this doesn’t have to be an all or nothing conversation. Your body changes, your digestion evolves, and what worked three years ago might not work today.

If you’ve ever said “dairy just doesn’t sit right with me,” this episode might help you figure out why.
