milk & mucus: objective information, please...

[gusl]

I have a hypothesis: dairy products cause nose blockages (I'm breathing poorly today, after indulging in large amounts of yoghurt)

So, Google, what do you think?

Argh! why is is so hard to get objective information??

Hmm. If I don't already have some mucus production, ingesting dairy products causes no change. If I do, drinking milk or eating yogurt—but not eating cheese—seems to cause it to cling better/not drain as well, whereas drinking something more acidic (like orange juice) seems to make it let go/drain. That's how it feels, anyway.

cheese doesn't have as much lactose as milk
