Document Summary

Vitamin d is a fat soluble vitamin, it is possible to overdose but rare. Too much vitamin d, would cause too much calcium in the blood. Alex guerrero is tom brady"s personal trainer. Guerrero has been helping brady to improve his diet. However, certain things guerrero claims brady and others should do, are not supported by scientific evidence. Guerrero says that people should eat alkaline diets. Alkaline diets are pointless: you cannot change the ph of your blood by what you eat. He says people should avoid milk and other dairy products. If you do not have an allergy to milk, or you are not lactose intolerant, there is no need to avoid dairy. There is a difference between being allergic to milk an being lactose intolerant. It is possible to have both, but it is rare. Milk allergy: allergy to the protein in milk. Lactose intolerant: being unable to digest lactose.
