Just to add an interesting tidbit...I found Yogurt gave me vicious joint
paint...in my hands, wrists, elbows and ankles. It got to the point that
it was painful to walk...then I came across a site written by a dairy
farmer whose wife suffered from the same symptoms. Somehow they
pinpointed the dairy products as the source and she quit everything
dairy (ironic...given she lives on a diary farm) and within a year, she
was completely recovered.

I did the same and within days, the pain had subsided (I had been eating
the Yogurt for only three weeks - one or two little cups a day). I've
experimented with all the dairy products since and found Yogurt to be,
by far, the worst offender. Why? I have no idea.

Six months later, I can drink milk and eat cheese with little problem.

Unfortunately, <sigh> the Yogurt got turfed from my diet. YKMV.
