A member asked:

Please help, how much milk to you have to consume to have the symptoms of lactose intolerance?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends...: On the severity of your lactase deficiency. Lactase is the enzyme that digests lactose. The more severe your deficiency the less milk it will take to give you symptoms.
