What is Lactose Intolerance?

Lactose intolerance refers the inability to digest lactose and results in gastroinstestinal complications. Lactose is a major source of carbohydrate found in milk, yogurt, ice cream, cheese and other dairy products. It is normally broken down by an enzyme called lactase, into absorbable sugars (glucose and galactose).

How It Affects Your Body

Lactose intolerance in adulthood may be due to insufficient production of the enzyme lactase. When lactose is not properly digested, it can cause an increase in intestinal water content and the production of gas, mainly hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane upon fermentation by the gut microbiome. This may eventually lead to unpleasant gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea and bloating.

Signs and Symptoms

Suggested Lifestyle Changes

Dietary Recommendations:

  1. Continue to maintain a healthy eating pattern which includes: Fat-free or low-fat dairy, including milk, yogurt, cheese, andoror fortified soy beverages.
  2. You may increase dairy intake by drinking fat-free or low-fat milk (or a fortified soy beverage) with meals, choosing yogurt as a snack, or using yogurt as an ingredient in prepared dishes such as salad dressings or spreads based on the severity of the reaction.
  3. Fat-free or low-fat milk, and yogurt is a better option than cheese. This is because cheese contains a high amount of sodium and saturated fats, while low on potassium, vitamin A and vitamin D.
