Some people in my family have a terrible ragweed allergy. All you hear is "achoo!" while in the car

I've got terrible hay fever, I'm on triple medication and it's still bothering me. Not fun.

Especially nowdays, when you sneeze everybody looks at you REALLY funny.

Yah if you get a good one that filters out the pollen its supposed to help. The ahstma and allergy association here recommends getting one some models :)

Makes no sense, I've been drinking less and less milk and the allergies have gotten worse and worse. I used to drink 3 litres of milk a day and didn't have hay fever then.

I can't drink milk directly before or during a review actually; it makes your throat kinda dry and sticky, so words become difficult to pronounce xD . But yeah, I drink a lot of milk :p .

Beware, for some people it aggravates the problem by kicking up more dust than it's removing.

YES, along with fixing Asthma, and Eczema.

In the United States, Dairy products is the primary reason why Black People have Asthma, approximately 90%+ of Black Africans are lactose intolerant, ~70% of Black AMERICANs are lactose intolerance, but they don't tell peeps these things, due to industry ties, politics, and <racism>, there are no black representatives on the USDA council.

The MAJORITY of Human beings are lactose intolerant along with nearly 100% of Mammals.   There's a reason for this, No animal drinks the milk of ANOTHER Animal. No animal drinks milk after ~1 year of birth. So the production of lactose digestive enzymes stop.  Humans <kinda gross> is the only animal to cross-drink from cow udders.    But in places where this milk theft has been going on long enough, the random mutation of Lactase persistence occured.  This has independently occured in multiple regions where humans have the practice of dairy-ing. such as England/ Mongolia.

Even among white people, Southern France, which did not dairy, have lactose intolerance of about ~70% similar to American Blacks.

The computer chip factories use what's known as Laminar airflow for their filtration system. Dat's the ultra high end of air cleaning.

TP4 you do not need to be overly dramatic, milk may cause issues with some peoples but we know 2 things about lactose intolerance, 1 it is genetic and 2 you can't be lactose intolerant and drink milk without finding it out very quick.
As for asthma it is also genetic, at least the version i have, and not caused by milk (no, milk can't alter your genome to make you have asthma or your milk is radioactive if it can).
And eczema can be contracted by some many things like stress or depression that yeah maybe it could be caused by milk, or that not drinking milk has a placebo effect.
Frankly your numbers seems incredibly high and i do not really understand what you have against peoples that can drink milk... if you are lactose intolerant well sorry to hear it but it is not the case of everyone, and knowing other lactose intolerant peoples the milk industry would have died years ago if 70% of the population was lactose intolerant.
Here you kinda look like the "annoying vegan" stereotype, the one that will never shut up about it and will blame anything on animal produces, that does not help your cause at all, we may expect next that you will tell us that your computer stopped working because your neighbor put milk in his coffee.

I understand your reluctance.  However everything you've said is WRONG.

Removing animal products have been shown to significantly reduce asthmatic symptoms even in SEVERE patients.  Many were able to come off medication such as steroids.

Animal products is a key trigger for auto-immune response, as it creates low grade inflammation.

It is also NOT the case that just because someone is NOT lactose intolerant, they can / should drink milk.  THEY SHOULD NOT.   Stopping milk consumption is better for EVERYONE including people who are not lactose intolerant.

In Asia, yellow skins, 90% of people are lactose intolerant.

People think lactose intolerance is a  yes/ no thing,   That is not the case.  Children who stay ON milk, can tolerate it to a degree well into adulthood, only having the more severe symptoms past middle age.

MILK also being a major contributor to Breast cancer, a PROVEN cause of Prostate Cancer in Men. Paraphrase, Dean of Harvard Nutrition: < The biomechanical mechanism by which Milk leads to prostate cancer is known >

Cows Milk is the leading theory on causing juvenile type 1 diabetes.

The totality of evidence along with the Very fact that NO other mammal drinks milk beyond ~age 1, is clear indication that this practice is broken.

DIET,  the food you eat represents the MOST SIGNIFICANT chemical interaction inside the human body.
