Dairy is one of the most misunderstood foods in wellness.

Is it inflammatory? Does it increase mucus? Does it raise IGF-1 and breast cancer risk? Or is that fear-based messaging?

In Part 4 of the Nutrition Just the Facts series, Laura breaks down the science behind dairy and separates cultural belief from biological evidence.

This episode covers:

• Dairy and inflammatory biomarkers • The mucus myth • IGF-1 and growth signaling in breast cancer • Lactose intolerance versus milk allergy • A1 versus A2 milk • Grass-fed versus conventional dairy • The influence of marketing and dietary policy

This is a calm, research-grounded conversation designed to help you make confident, personalized nutrition decisions.
