DUSTIN BY STEVE KELLEY & JEFF PARKER

THURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 2014

Take boyfriend on get-away weekend DEAR ABBY: I have been seeing a guy, “Karl,” for eight months now, and we have never had sex. After two or three months, I brought up the subject. He said he was stressed because he had just lost his job. He also said there is never any privacy at his place because he has roommates/tenants. I offered to go to my place, but he said that with my son there, it’s the same issue. Karl says he’s very attracted to me, but doesn’t want our “time” together to be ruined by his current money problems. I told him I understood and I have waited. I also explained that it makes me feel insecure and unwanted. He now has a job, but we still haven’t had sex. He has, in the interim, told me he loves me and wants to marry me. I constantly worry that there’s someone

Easy to find the milk that’s right for you little fat). I put 1 percent dairy milk on my morning cereal. To my taste, 1 percent is plenty creamy, but skim milk just isn’t creamy enough. In fact, after years of using 1 percent milk, when I’m traveling and the only option in a restaurant is 2 percent or whole (3 percent) milk, that milk tastes too creamy. These ASK days there DOCTOR K. is a variety of nondairy, fortified milk Dr. Anthony beverages on the shelves of grocery Komaroff most stores — and plenty of my friends and patients swear by them. Here’s a guide to help you choose the milk that’s best for you:

• Dairy milk is a good source of calcium and vitamin D, which promote bone health. Many dairy milk products are also fortified with other vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin A and phosphorus. (Non-dairy milks that are fortified can also be good sources of these vitamins and minerals.) The more butterfat, the higher the calories, total fat, saturated fat and cholesterol. • Soy milk is almost identical to dairy milk in its nutritional content. Most brands have moderate amounts of fat, which make them similar in calories to lowfat (1 percent) dairy milk. Soy milk is also fortified with vitamin D, vitamin A and calcium. Soy milks are much higher in protein than other non-dairy milks. This is an important difference for vegetarians and vegans who are trying to meet their protein needs. • Nut milks come in varieties such as almond, walnut or hazelnut. They are

DEAR DOCTOR K: I hear that dairy milk, which I’ve been drinking all my life, may not be healthy. Should I switch from dairy milk to a different kind? DEAR READER: When I was a kid, every mother (surely including mine) believed that dairy milk was healthy. Television commercials called dairy milk “nature’s most perfect food” and intoned “you never outgrow your need for milk.” I think I remember hearing that every time I watched Davy Crockett on television. (Yes, I know that dates me.) In the decades since then, we’ve learned that saturated fats in the diet raise blood cholesterol levels — and that, in turn, increases the risk of heart disease and strokes. Dairy milk has a little more than 3 percent butterfat, much of it saturated fat. That’s why over the past 30 years, grocery stores have started to carry reduced-butterfat dairy milk: 2 percent fat, 1 percent fat and skim milk (very

else and wonder what’s wrong with me. I love Karl, too, but I don’t know what to do. Please help. — LOVE, BUT NO SEX IN NEW JERSEY DEAR LOVE, BUT: Is there any intimacy AT ALL in your relationship with DEAR Karl? Is he ABBY affectionate? Is there any physical Jeanne Phillips response when he holds and kisses you? If the answer is no, your boyfriend may have a physical or emotional problem, be asexual or gay. Before agreeing to marry him, I recommend you schedule some time alone

lactose-, soy- and gluten-free. The unsweetened versions are also lower in calories than other milks. However, they provide much less protein than dairy and soy milks. • Coconut milk. One cup of a coconut-milk beverage has the same number of calories as a cup of skim milk. But coconut milk is much higher in fat, especially saturated fat. • Grain and seed milks. Rice, oat and quinoa milks are examples of grain and seed milks. They have higher total carbohydrate and sugar contents. The rarer seed milks, such as hemp, sunflower and sesame seed, have the highest fat content of all the alternatives. On my website, AskDoctorK.com, I’ve put a table showing how the various milks compare in nutritional value. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.
