Question 1

allergic only to buttermilk, what causes this?

Accepted Answer

More info: Would like more details concerning your actual reaction to buttermilk, if you are able to tolerate other dairy products with no issues then you likely don't have an IgE-mediated allergic reaction to buttermilk (cow's milk) but rather a sensitivity/intolerance. I would see an allergist so that a detailed history can be taken and you can figure out if you are truly allergic.

Question 3

is buttermilk helpful for skin?

Accepted Answer

Happy Skin: Skin is the major protection of our delicate internal tissues from a harsh environment, it is susceptible to injury itself. Sun, shaving and many chemicals  are very irritating as well as constant exposure to moisture reduces protective skin oils and sets the skin up for injury.  The trick is to apply good protective skin cream frequently and minimize ongoing damage.  Clean it using gentle means.

Accepted Answer

Milk vs buttermilk: Buttermilk has more calories and fat than milk, so you'll gain more weight faster with buttermilk. But, you don't need to drink either one to be healthy, though. Water is the healthiest thing for you to drink. You can get plenty of calcium and vitamin D from other, healthier, lower-fat sources, like plants or supplements.
