Salam Alekum,

 

Here is an article on the drinking of milk and MS.

 

Cow’s Milk Causes Multiple Sclerosis

Antibody cross-reactivity between myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and the milk protein butyrophilin in multiple sclerosis by Johannes Guggenmos in the January 1, 2004 issue of the Journal of Immunology found evidence that multiple sclerosis is caused from the consumption of cow’s milk – by causing attacks by the immune system through a process known as molecular mimicry.

 

You may have heard that multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease or “a disease where the body attacks itself” – and in this case the nervous system is attacked. Molecular mimicry is a natural response of the immune system against foreign proteins misdirected to our own tissues. In this case, cow-milk proteins enter the bloodstream through the intestinal wall. Antibodies are made against this foreign substance. Because of the similarity between the structure of these proteins and the ones that make up the nervous system tissues, these antibodies attack and destroy parts of the human brain (myelin). The resulting injury causes loss of vision, hearing, sensation and strength. Within 10 years of diagnosis, half of the victims of MS are wheel-chair bound, bed-ridden, or dead – unless they are fortunate enough to change their diet. With a healthy diet the risk of getting worse over the next 35 years is less than 5% (See on my home page the interview with Dr. Roy Swank on MS).
