Lactose intolerance

Lactose intolerance

Lactose intolerance means having gas or other symptoms specifically because of the inability to break down and digest lactose-the sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Researchers are finding, however, that some people who believe that they are lactose intolerant actually can digest lactose without experiencing any problems. Perhaps more surrprisingly, they're also finding that even people with diagnosed lactose intolerance have few or no symptoms after drinking a cup of milk or more.
