Tenhaum Medical Institute (TMI), Charleston, Vermont- Medical researchers at the TMI claimed to have found a major contribution to back problems in elders. Their theory is that the problems are caused by the process of feeding large amounts of dairy products to infants.
"The problem is the amount of calcium in dairy," said medical researcher, Don Denham, "Being that infants are unable to eat solid food, and most drinks are unsuitable for feeding children under three, most parents turn to milk bottles or breastfeeding.
"But the thing is that milk holds large amounts of this calcium, which is known to help bones grow and strengthen. This is where the problem occurs. As calcium particles reach the vertibrae, the small bones making up the spine, it could create a slight overgrowth within the bone. Although the growth does not actually take effect until about the age of forty-five, can be very serious once it does."
Dr. Denham and his assistants explained that as the bones grow more with age, the space in between individual vertibrae slowly decreases, causing tightness and cramps.
Medical doctors have been attempting to avoid the issue by injecting Anti-Calgenic acid, a calcium-eating solution, into the spinal fluid to decrease the amount of calcium entering the vertibrae.
Even though scientists claim to have found the final solution, many sources contradict this theory. "The only problem with this new injection," says Dr. Streinham, of the Cleveland Medical University, "Is this acid will eat away bone marrow if excess calcium is not available, making the infants' bones weak." Dr. Jamie Streinham insists to instead find a better infant formula that doesn't hold as large an amount of calcium as dairy.
