A member asked:
Ice cream really upsets my bowels, but other types of lactose products seem ok. is this common? what could be the cause?should i say away from lactose
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lactose intolerance: Yoghurt and cheese are dairy products in which the lactose has been fermented by microorganisms, making them relatively lactose free. Ordinary milk should cause similar symptoms as what you experience with ice cream. If that is not the pattern, you are reacting to a specific additive to the ice cream.
