After becoming a dad and having to change my baby girls diapers regularly, I recognized the effect bananas and potatoes had on her digestion system. My hypothesis is that these foods are too "new" for my European stomach. Now I mostly cut these from my diet and eat more rice and I feel better.

Since she was born 4 years ago, I cut smoking, soda, potatoes and took a new job for which I bike 20min one way every day, except when it rains heavily.

I have the same gut feeling about dairy. I think we humans are the only specie that drink milk from other animals (not 100% sure about that) and you don't have to be lactose intolerant, you can also be allergic to milk protein(s). And we might be the only specie that drinks milk in adulthood too.
