Extractions: Award: About 70% of the world's population just can't drink milk or eat dairy products (except yogurt) without getting an upset stomach. It's genetic and happens most often in people of African, Asian and Mediterranean descent. It's caused by a deficiency of lactase, an enzyme needed to absorb and digest the milk sugar, lactose. Undigested, the milk sugar lingers in the colon and ferments, creating intestinal distress - abdominal pain, bloating, gas and diarrhea - that sometimes defies diagnosis or is misdiagnosed as serious bowel disease. So don't believe you have a serious bowel disorder until you are sure milk is not at fault. How much upset milk causes depends on the severity of your lactase deficiency. From 60 to 80 percent of those with lactose intolerance can still drink a single glass of milk without distress and about half can drink two glasses of milk, says note researcher Dr. Dennis Savaiano of the University of Minnesota. One study found that normal people absorbed 92% of milk's lactose; those with lactose intolerance absorbed only 25% to 58%. Yogurt is safe because it comes predigested. In one of nature's small miracles, the bacteria in yogurt take over for the missing enzyme and digest much of the milk sugar for you. According to tests by Dr. Savaiano, two bacterial cultures, Streptococcus thermophilus and especially Lactobacillus bulgaricus, that transform milk into yogurt gobble up much of milk's lactose during fermentation, and once in the intestine eat much of the remaining lactose. Be sure the yogurt has live bacterial cultures, as nearly all commercial yogurts do; killed bacteria do not work. Plain yogurts have more anti-lactose activity than flavored yogurts. Buttermilk and acidophilus milk, although fermented, still cause as much distress in most people as plain milk.

When people with lactose intolerance consume milk products, they may have symptoms such as abdominal bloating , excessive intestinal gas, nausea diarrhea , and abdominal cramping Lactose intolerance is very common in adults and is not dangerous. Many adults, by the time they are 20 years old (approximately 30 million Americans), have some degree of lactose intolerance. Lactose intolerance is common in premature babies, but in term birth babies, it generally does not show up until they are at least 3 years old.

Site dedicated to helping people with lactose intolerance. It contains lots of practical advice on how to shop and eat out and avoid products that contain lactose.
http://www.nowhey.org

Extractions: Last Updated 01/07/03 This site is dedicated to educating people about lactose intolerance and all the hidden places that lactose (milk sugar) shows up in commercially prepared food goods. As you might guess from the title of this site, the most insidious of the hidden forms of lactose is whey . Whey sounds healthy. But most people have no idea what whey really is! Whey is about 75% lactose! Whey is a by-product of the cheese making process. It's really a waste product, but the clever dairy industry has figured out how to market this product to what seems like the entire prepared food industry. It's not clear to me that whey has any real purpose in foods except to make extra money for the dairy industry (and as a sneaky way to add sugar to a product while making it sound like something healthy). If they're not adding whey, they're adding non-fat dried milk. That's also mostly lactose. (Milk is essentially water, lactose and fat. The fat is what gives milk its white color, not the calcium as you might believe.) Sometimes you get both non-fat dried milk and whey. I've even seen products that contain whey, non-fat dried milk and lactose! A triple whammy! So take a spin around the site. You'll learn about lactose intolerance and how to avoid ingesting lactose. And you're going to be shocked at all the places lactose is hiding.

lactose intolerance and the Risk of Calcium Deficiency Journal ofThe National Medical Association Vol. 94, No. 2, February 2002.
http://www.dairyease.com/yourhealth/lactose_intolerance.html

Extractions: Lactose intolerance, or the inability to digest lactose, the primary carbohydrate in milk, affects nearly every ethnic and racial group in the United States, with particular prevalence in the Asian (90%), African American (80%) and Hispanic (70%) communities. Among Caucasians, 15 percent of the population suffers from lactose intolerance. By avoiding the consumption of milk, these adults are at high risk of not getting an adequate intake of calcium and other essential nutrients. Low calcium intake levels are recognized as a major public health problem in the United States, with more than 75 percent of Americans not meeting the current calcium recommendations for their age/gender group. Although lactose intolerance may be partly to blame for the low calcium and dairy food intakes of these communities, other factors such as culturally determined food preferences and dietary practices learned early in life also play a role. It is human nature to avoid milk if one has experienced unpleasant gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking it. Data from most studies suggests that individuals with lactose intolerance consume less milk than those who digest lactose normally, even though avoiding milk may not be a conscious decision.

Extractions: Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose, the primary sugar found in milk. This results from of a shortage of the enzyme lactase , which is normally produced by cells that line the small intestine. The lactase enzyme breaks down milk sugar into simpler forms, which can then be absorbed into the bloodstream. If there is not enough lactase present to process the sugar, there can be some distressing side effects. These side effects usually begin anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours after eating or drinking foods containing lactose. The severity of these symptoms varies from individual to individual based on how much lactose each person can handle. The most common symptoms include: nausea, gas, diarrhea, bloating, and cramps. There are several causes that are well known. These include certain digestive diseases and injuries to the small intestine, which can reduce the amount of enzymes produced. Typically, however, lactose intolerance simply develops over time, as our bodies naturally begin to produce less lactase.

M alabsorption of dietary lactose in the small intestine results in gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, passage of loose, watery stools, and excessive flatus. Lactose intolerance is generally a lifelong inherited condition but can be a temporary result of an infection or other insult to the jejunal mucosa. Recognition of this prevalent condition is important, as it is easily managed by simple dietary adjustments. Accurate diagnosis of lactose intolerance can significantly relieve patient anxiety and avoid inappropriate investigation and treatment. The amount of ingested lactose required to produce symptoms is usually about 8 to 12 oz of milk.

Lactose Intolerance What is lactose intolerance? If you have lactose intolerance, you have trouble digesting milk, ice cream and cheese. This condition is most common among people of Asian, American Indian, Hispanic and South American, and black heritage. What causes lactose intolerance? If you have lactose intolerance, you have trouble digesting milk because your body does not make enough lactase. Lactase is an enzyme that breaks down the natural sugar in milk. This sugar is called lactose. What problems does lactose intolerance cause? Here are the main problems caused by lactose intolerance in adults: Rumbling tummy sounds Stomach cramps Stomach bloating Diarrhea The condition is a little different in each person. Some people with this problem can safely drink small amounts of milk, especially if they eat other foods with it. Other people can't drink any milk at all without having problems. The problems often start around age 2, when the body naturally starts making less lactase.
