Lactose intolerance: Your problem is likely from lactose intolerance when your intestine lacks an enzyme called lactase to break down the "sugar lactose" in milk. The bacteria in the guts metabolize the lactose leading to the gastrointestinal symptoms. You may try milk already treated with lactase or take lactase pills with milk.
