Then you have some milk and cereal, and there your stomach goes again, and you figure out that it’s got to be the milk that’s the culprit. But why now, when drinking milk was fine before? In any case, from this point you’ll have to watch your lactase consumption.

Unfortunately, lactose intolerance attacks many people during adulthood. Dairy products are full of lactose, and for some reason our bodies stop producing lactase, which is needed to digest it. Sometimes this is due to disease or genetic defect, but most of the time it’s just an annoying development. Some researchers think that it’s because we need milk when we’re younger, but when we’re fully grown we don’t need it as much so our bodies lose the ability to digest lactose. This may be, but culture plays a part in lactose intolerance as well. Countries where dairy consumption is a big part of culture have lower rates of lactose intolerance, whereas countries that have a mostly lactose free diet have more lactose intolerance inhabitants. Still, lactose intolerance can happen to people who regularly enjoy dairy products.

So a lactose free diet might be necessary for people who have developed lactose intolerance. A lactose free diet might exclude milk, cheese, yogurt and unfortunately ice cream, but it will vary according to individual. In some cases, a lactose free might include products like lactase milk that is easier for lactose intolerant individuals to digest.
