an interesting fact about fibre and animal products is that milk sugars are converted into fibre in the gut when the sugar is beyond requirements, goat milk especially - and it also has a lot of vitamin C in it

i personally find that if i eat large amounts of fats in a meal that i get diarrhea ... unless i add some form of fibre, the milk works great but the sugar in it doesn't help my blood sugar, so i mix one or two teaspoons of powdered psyllium husk into yogurt and add 50% cream and it is doing wonders for my energy levels

The statement contains some inaccuracies. Firstly, milk sugars (lactose) are not converted into fiber in the gut. Fiber is a type of carbohydrate found in plant-based foods, and lactose is a sugar specific to dairy products. The digestion of lactose primarily occurs in the small intestine with the help of the enzyme lactase.

Secondly, while goat milk does contain lactose, it does not naturally contain significant amounts of vitamin C. Vitamin C is more commonly associated with fruits and vegetables. Goat milk does provide various nutrients, including calcium and protein, but it's not considered a significant source of vitamin C.

oh yes, also, there is nutritional value in dirt - a small amount in the gut carries many very beneficial bacteria, and a special kind of dirt, diatomaceous earth, is lethal to GI worms of all kinds and dramatically reduces their population
