Question 5

can you be partially lactose intolerant or is it one or the other.  i don't do well with eggs, pizza, and some other foods, but can eat cheese & other?

Accepted Answer

Not Lactose: The fact that you don't do well with eggs and pizza, but do ok with cheese would tend to go against lactose intolerance (there is no lactose in eggs). You could definitely have some other food sensitivity. Pay careful attention to the ingredients in your food. If you notice that a certain ingredient shows up in every food you do badly with, that's the culprit. Hope this hleps!

Accepted Answer

: There are many products in the market free of lactose. try those. You can then try dairy in small amts. to see if you can tolerate that and increase slowly. your condition comes in low to high intolerance and you might be in the low. . Or you can take the pills. Using the bathroom too many times is not good for your health. Take precaution and don't pay the price! Good luck
