Threshold issue?: Most people, even those with lactose intolerance, have the ability to digest some lactose because they have some lactase enzyme activity. Exceed your threshold to drink milk and you pay for it with gas, bloating, stomach upset, diarrhea. Consume small amounts of lactose (below your lactase enzyme threshold) or supplement with lactase enzymes & you may be good to go.
