Lactose intolerant?????

Question

I'm apparently lactose intolerant. I still drink milk and I still eat dairy products..I know I shouldn't. I'm starting to think I should stop. I dont just get gass and have a sore stomach. I just feel sick all around. I hate it. Is this normal?

Answer 1

you can also drink rice milk. it tastes a lot like soy silk milk. it is pretty good. you really need to get on some type of otc pill. if you can find one that works for you. you will feel so much better.  

Answer 2

The symptoms are normal for being lactose intolerant. To be 100% sure, your doctor can perform a type of test to determine if you truly are or just have IBS. (Irritable bowel syndrome)

I am severely lactose intolerant. It started out with the gas and cramps, but has escalated to being in severe pain, vomiting and almost passing out.

You can take a medication (OTC) to help. It's called Digestive Advantage and is put out by Ganeden. It is much better than lactaid.

Also, you can switch to soy milk, The silk milk is pretty good.

Just some advice, I would try to stop and switch to soy based products. You can also take calcium supplements if you are worried about not getting the calcium you need by drinking milk.
