• Mucus is produced by sub-mucosal cells as well as goblet cells in the respiratory system. • It consists of mucin, a highly glycosylated peptide. • Upon stimulation, MARPKs (Myrastine-Alanine Rich Protein Kinases) signal the binding of mucin filled vesicles to the plasma membrane. • The fusion of the vesicles causes the release of the mucin• It exchanges Ca2+ for Na+ expands up to 600 fold. • The result is a visco-elastic product of interwoven molecules (mucus)

“More and more physicians and dietitians realize that removing dairy products from the diet can be the solution to many childhood illnesses such as ear infections, runny noses, constipation, colic, and gas—the list goes on.”

“According to a report in American Academy of Allergy and Immunology Committee on Adverse Reactions to Food (part of NIH), the allergies of up to one third of children tested cleared after milk was removed from their diet.”

“Dr. Benjamin Spock, author of the world-famous book Baby and Child Care, wrote in 1998, ‘Cow’s milk is not recommended for a child when he is sick—or when he is well, for that matter. Dairy products may cause more mucus complications and cause more discomfort with upper respiratory infections.’ “

“The mucus created by milk may cause other health problems, as well. Dr. William Ellis, who has studied the effects of dairy foods for more than four decades, says that milk is "simply no good for humans." Dr. Ellis believes that the excess mucus caused by milk can harden to form a coating on the inner wall of the intestines, hindering the absorption of nutrients and

possibly leading to chronic fatigue.”
