================

That makes sense - I didn't have it badly until I banished
milk products from my diet for a short period. Unfortunately
the condition didn't improve when I added them back again.

Colonization with the appropriate bacteria didn't help.

 GJ> What a blinkered attitude towards something so widely prevalent!

Blinkered at least. Back then, the "best" research studies
(sponsored by the dairy industry of course) indicated that
lactose intolerance was a psychosomatic condition ...

 GJ> enormous prices from the sort of people who pay $5000 for a hamburger;
 GJ> possibly enough to encourage commercial production.  It would bring a

If there were enormous profits to be made I could see unlicensed
cottage industry cheese going on the market, followed by a
listeriosis scare, followed by crackdown on cheese labs, followed
by FDA inspection of all lactating women.

 GJ> I have just heard that a powerful anti-biotic, 100 times more powerful

 ML> Question is why wallabies? And if wallabies, why not roos,

 GJ> I wondered about that supposed uniqueness of the Tamar wallabies.

If your news were true, one would guess that someone else's
wallabies would have perhaps 50x antibiotic milk and kangaroos
would have perhaps 25x antibiotic milk, and the drug companies
would cause a chain of events similar to that I describe above.

Too kind.
