You get sharp pains in your stomach because the stomach is not producing enough Hydrochloric Acid to start the digesting process of breaking down food so it sits there like a cold lump of coal. Antacids reduce the acids in your stomach further, it neutralizes(base) acids. Your stomach needs the a higher PH of acid(1 to 3 on a PH meter) to be healthy. The stomach produces copious amounts of mucus to protect the tissue and the parietal glands which produces the gastric acids. The low PH also protects against pathogens introduced through food which can bypass the stomach and play hell in your digestive system and ulcers, especially peptic ulcer which mostly caused by H. pyloria.
I never stopped eating butter, eggs, or lard (or bacon, for that matter), and I always drank whole milk. Never did low-fat anything. My family has eaten this way for a very long time. As long as you exercise plenty, do a lot of physical labor, you’ll be fine. It’s a sedentary life that gets you.
