| If you are looking for people to talk to about living a nondairy life,
you should take a look at the NO-MILK (Casein/Lactose/Milk-Free) List. Messages
can be posted to everyone on the list to ask for help or supply answers to
others. Archived resources, on parve foods or nondairy recipes, for example, are
also available. I should warn you that Lactose Intolerance is not
really the major topic on the list. Most postings are from parents of severely
allergic children, whose concerns are somewhat different from our own. They
must rigorously avoid foods with even the sightest hint of a dairy
product, something Steve Carper does not recommend for the vast majority of
people with LI and although the list is International the majority of the
postings are from the US and Canada and most of the products they talk about are
not available in the UK (yet), and some of the problems they face (such as
distance from a suitable shop ) are simplier in the UK. However, we can all
learn things from the postings all the time, so why not check it out for a while
in any case? To subscribe, send an email to: LISTSERV@MAELSTROM.STJOHNS.EDU with these words in the body of the e-mail SUB NO-MILK YourFirstName YourLastName. When you subscribe you will get all the instructions for the list so you can configure it to your own interests. However, you may find it easier to receive each day's posting in a single e-mail. To do this, include SET NO-MILK DIGEST in your e-mail to the list. |
