Quick Overview of Lactose Intolerance

This article is a simple explanation of lactose intolerance. Importantly it stresses that although many people are lactose intolerance it does not mean that they shouldn’t consume any dairy. Quite to the contrary most people with lactose intolerance can tolerate some dairy and the amount needs to be determined with trial and error. For those with little tolerance there are dietary aids such as Lactaid so that everyone can get the benefits of dairy consumption without risking that sickening feeling. Also, if you are are unsure about whether you have lactose intolerance or another gastrointestinal problem like IBS consider taking a hydrogen breath test.
