Question 1

how do i know if i have adult onset lactose intolerence?

Accepted Answer

Correlate symptoms: Lactose intolerance typically causes abdominal bloating, cramps, and diarrhea.  Strict avoidance of lactose products (milk, cheese, ice cream) with resolution of symptoms is diagnostic.  There are also lactose breath tests available if you are still unsure after dietary restriction.

Question 2

is there a way to obtain a lactose intolerence diet plan?

Accepted Answer

For a healthy diet,: Check out www.Drmcdougall.Com or www.Nutritionfacts.Org.  Both doctors cite lots of research evidence for a low-fat, plane-based diet for good health, including weight loss.  These diets avoid dairy products.  Therefore, lactose intolerance is not a problem.

Question 6

hi
my son 3y old lactose intolerance suffer from bad absorbtion how can i treated?

Accepted Answer

Avoid dairy: Lactose intolerance causes only malabsorption of lactose by failing to convert it into glucose but should not cause malabsorption of other nutrients. See you doctor to check for other causes especially if avoidance of lactose failed to remedy the situation. At age 3, milk is not an essential nutrient source.

Question 7

can you give me advice? i have been diagnosed with lactose intolerence and spastic colon.what can i eat?

Accepted Answer

Avoid all dairy: Lactose is a sugar contained in milk from cows, goats, and sheep. Many people don't digest/tolerate it well. To eliminate lactose, you must avoid any product made from milk from these animals, including milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, ice cream, etc. Some beers are also fermented with lactose (milk stout). You can easily find "lactose-free" versions of many products including milk and yogurt.

Question 8

9 months post nissen fundo.  major rumbling, gas, bloat. is lactose intolerence a side effect to this surgery?  test for lactose intolerance?

Accepted Answer

Lactose intolerance: Lactose intolerance is hereditary but can occur if the small intestine becomes diseased or injured.  I don't believe that your procedure, which improves the esophageal sphincter, fits in this category. To check for lactose intolerance you could try an elimination diet or undergo the actual testing procedure. A gastroenterologist can advise you further.

Question 9

does mayo have lactose?

Accepted Answer

Mayo: In general most mayo preparation do not contain lactose. There are some brands however, that do contain lactose so check labels.

Question 10

what foods contain lactose?

Accepted Answer

Milk products: Lactose is the naturally occurring sugar in milk.  So all milk products (including cheese, butter, ice cream and  yogurt) contain lactose. Many baked products use milk as an ingredient, so these too have lactose in addition many medicines contain lactose as well used as a "filler".  Read labels looking for milk as an ingredient.
