excerpt from new york times 4/13/2010
"some types of milk contain a protein called beta-CM-7 protein, which has been shown in studies to stimulate mucus glands in the figestive tracts. These glands are also found in respiratory tract, where they are known to over produce mucus in conditions caused by inflammation, like asthma."
"...consuming milk containing beta-CM-7 may stimulate phlegm in the respiratory tract, particularly in people with chronic lung conditions."
"...many symptoms, including asthma, improve on a dairy-elimination diet"
