Guest guest Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Jacqie, You could always make sesame seed milk. Sesame seeds are cheap and full of calcium. 3/4 cup of sesame seeds to 3 cups of water for blending. Soak the seeds overnight and drain. Blend with the 3 cups of water. Sweeten with raw honey, or stevia, or ? Adjust the water and seeds to your liking. Lois daslm_9_2004 <daslm_9_2004 wrote: Thank you to everyone for your advice. Today is the first day of the trial with no dairy. I'll do my best to last 3 weeks. Hopefully I'll see results to give me motivation to keep going. I'm finding milk to be the hardest for me to give up. My mom's oncologist told her that I should stay away from soy, for cancer prevention reasons. The thought of giving up soy and dairy at the same time is daughnting to me right now. I know I need to do what is best for my baby and ultimately my family. I just wish that there was an easy fix. I'm trying to think of how to do this one step at a time, yet I don't want my baby to continue to have reflux problems. It just seems like with every diet change comes a budget change and I'm not sure that our budget can switch around much more. It's all very overwhelming right now. I really appreciate everyone who has given their input and I look forward to reading more suggestions and encouragements. Since I stopped eating gluten, my baby has been sleeping much better at night. For a couple of days he quit spitting up so badly, but now he is back to throwing up everytime he eats. That is why I am trying to illiminate dairy from the equation. Thanks again! Jacqie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I would suggest you strain the milk through a brown paper coffee filter and use the seeds for making muffins or bread.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Surprisingly enough, you can strain these seeds with a very fine wire mesh strainer. Not like the almond pulp where I had to use a nylon straining bag. Also, I always used my Vitamix blender, so don't know what a regular blender will do.
