Extractions: Home Healthy Lifestyle Nutrition Fact Sheets Member Log In Search Find a Dietitian (Enter ZIP) What is lactose intolerance? Lactose intolerance is a set of symptoms resulting from the body's inability to digest the milk sugar called lactose. Lactose is commonly found in dairy-based foods and beverages, and is digested in the intestines by the enzyme lactase. Lactase breaks down lactose so it can be absorbed into the bloodstream. When the body does not produce enough lactase, lactose cannot be digested which may result in lactose intolerance. Individuals may have varying degrees of intolerance to lactose. Between 30 to 50 million Americans suffers from lactose intolerance. In fact, 75 percent of adults worldwide do not produce adequate amounts of the lactase enzyme, and therefore may experience some or all of the symptoms of lactose intolerance. If you are lactose intolerant, you share this condition with many people. It is estimated that 90 percent of Asian-Americans are lactose intolerant and 75 percent of all African and Native Americans, Jews, and Hispanics in the U.S. have insufficient levels of the lactase enzyme and may experience some or all symptoms. What are the symptoms?

Milk & Lactose - Ask The Dietitian
Ask the Dietitian, Milk lactose intolerance. I need information about horse milk.Is this type of milk suitable for people who have lactose intolerance.
http://www.dietitian.com/milk.html

Extractions: Lactose Intolerance I have an 8 year old son who is unable to eat dairy products, due to GI problems. He has been taking at his Dr.'s recommendation, TUMS daily for calcium replacement. Recently, we have found a soy-based drink that he enjoys. The box that the drink comes in states that 8 oz. of the drink contain 30% of the daily requirement of calcium. It doesn't specify if that's for adults or children. I presume it's for adults. My question is: if my son drinks 4 glasses of this beverage daily, will he be receiving a sufficient amount of calcium? Will we still need to augment with the TUMS? Thank you for your help. With your son being intolerant to milk products, any soy and or rice beverage would be appropriate for him, especially if he enjoys the taste. However, it is recommended that he get 800 mg of calcium daily. The label of the soymilk should provide you with information regarding the calcium content of the soymilk. From that you could determine how many glasses it would require to reach his calcium requirement. You might also check the label to make sure that the soymilk is fortified with vitamin A , D, riboflavin and vitamin B-12 that are normally found in cow's milk. Foods other than milk that are high in calcium include calcium-fortified orange juice, broccoli, kale, tofu, calcium-fortified bread, breakfast cereals, breakfast bars and snacks.

Extractions: What are my treatment options? What is lactose intolerance? You're lactose intolerant when your intestines lack a certain enzyme, called lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in milk and other dairy products. Within 30 minutes to two hours of eating these foods, you may suffer cramps, gas, bloating, and diarrhea. Unfortunately, you can't reverse lactose intolerance. But by making a few changes in your eating habits or by using lactase tablets and drops, you can usually treat the symptoms well enough to enjoy your favorite ice cream or cheese. And, because most dairy products are so rich in calcium, you'll have an easier time getting enough of the mineral to keep your bones and teeth strong. How many people are lactose intolerant?

Extractions: Lactose is the sugar found in milk and dairy products. It can cause stomach discomfort in some people. A person with lactose intolerance has trouble digesting the sugar in dairy foods. But recent studies show that even children diagnosed with lactose intolerance can drink one to two cups of milk each day without suffering abdominal discomfort. Lactose intolerance is not common among infants and children. Among adults, it is more common in Asian, Hispanic, African American, and Native American populations. Here are some useful tips for people with lactose intolerance to help them get enough calcium: For people who cannot tolerate any milk calcium can come from other sources such as green, leafy vegetables and foods with added calcium.

Lactose Intolerance
lactose intolerance is the impaired ability to digest lactose (the naturallyoccurring sugar in milk). The enzyme lactose intolerance.
http://www.mycustompak.com/healthNotes/Concern/Lactose_Intolerance.htm

Extractions: Lactose Intolerance Lactose intolerance is the impaired ability to digest lactose (the naturally occurring sugar in milk ). The enzyme lactase is needed to digest lactose, and a few children and many adults do not produce sufficient lactase to digest the milk sugar. The condition is rare in infants. Only one-third of the population worldwide retains the ability to digest lactose into adulthood. Most adults of Asian, African, Middle Eastern, and Native American descent are lactose intolerant. In addition, half of Hispanics and about 20% of Caucasians do not produce sufficient lactase as adults. A simple test for lactose intolerance is to drink at least two 8-ounce glasses of milk on an empty stomach and note any gastrointestinal symptoms that develop in the next four hours. The test should then be repeated using several ounces of cheese (which does not contain much lactose). If symptoms result from milk but not cheese, then the person has lactose intolerance. If symptoms occur with both milk and cheese, the person may be allergic to dairy products (very rarely can lactose intolerance be so severe that even eating cheese will cause symptoms). In addition to gastrointestinal problems, one study has reported a correlation in women between lactose intolerance and a higher risk of depression and PMS However, this study is only preliminary and does not establish a cause-and-effect relationship.
Digestive Problems | A Complete Guide | Lactose Intolerance
A complete guide to lactose intolerance from HeliosHealth.com with clinicallyreviewed information, animations, news and discussions.
http://www.helioshealth.com/digestive/lactose_intolerance/

Extractions: Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest significant amounts of lactose, the predominant sugar of milk. This inability results from a shortage of the enzyme lactase, which is normally produced by the cells that line the small intestine. Lactase breaks down milk sugar into simpler forms that can then be absorbed into the bloodstream. When there is not enough lactase to digest the amount of lactose consumed, the results, although not usually dangerous, may be very distressing. While not all persons deficient in lactase have symptoms, those who do are considered to be lactose intolerant. Common symptoms include nausea, cramps, bloating, gas, and diarrhea, which begin about 30 minutes to two hours after eating or drinking foods containing lactose. The severity of symptoms varies depending on the amount of lactose each individual can tolerate. Any questions or comments?
CCFA - WHAT IS LACTOSE INTOLERANCE?
WHAT IS lactose intolerance? Many people with Crohn's disease lactose intolerance Intestinal Disorders. Some people will display symptoms
http://www.ccfa.org/medcentral/library/diet/lactose.htm

Extractions: Home News Updates Medical Library Research Information ... Glossary Many people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis also suffer uncomfortable symptoms when they drink milk or eat dairy products. This is not surprising, since lactose intolerance, or alactasia, is the world's most prevalent disorder. Dairy products contain lactose, a disaccharide, or "double sugar." In order to be absorbed by the body, lactose must be broken down into simple sugars (monosaccharides) by the enzyme lactase. In people with low levels of the lactase enzyme, unabsorbed lactose ferments in the intestine, causing gas, cramps and diarrhea. In newborns, lactose intolerance may also cause vomiting and failure to thrive. Researchers theorize that the lactase enzyme is widely present in newborns, but decreases after the first year or two of life. It seems to remain at normal levels only in those peoples and regions whose adult populations depended upon milk as a staple for the last few thousand years. Thus, there is little lactose intolerance among the people of northern Europe and certain peoples of the Middle East (Bedouins, Saudis, Yemenis). On the other hand, Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Jews in Israel and elsewhere, and most Africans and their descendants demonstrate very high levels of lactose intolerance. In the United States, the majority of non-whites report symptoms when they drink the recommended three to four glasses of milk per day. There are an estimated 50 million lactose intolerant adult Americans, including 70% of the black population, 15% of the white population, and 80 to 97% of Jews of European descent and Asian-Americans. Eskimos, Native Americans, and South American Indians are other highly lactose intolerant groups.

Lactose Intolerance By Ellen Eagan
lactose intolerance by Ellen Eagan. The area in the intestines where lactase, theenzyme needed to break down lactose, is produced is called the brush border.
http://www.nomilk.com/eagan.shtml

Extractions: The area in the intestines where lactase, the enzyme needed to break down lactose, is produced is called the brush border. It is at the ends of the microvilli. It is only one cell deep. As most people age, their ability to produce lactase decreases. Sometimes it decreases to the point where you are unable to deal with all of the lactose that you ingest. If you have decreased production of lactase and then something else happens to compromise the integrity of the brush border, it cases further reduction of lactase production. If you continue to take in lactose, that causes more irritation and loss of lactase production. It becomes a vicious negative feedback cycle. When you are suffering from celiac sprue, there is damage to your intestinal villi. This can make one temporarily lactase deficient to the point where lactose becomes a problem also. This happened in my case. Once I started on the gluten-free diet and my intestines had healed, lactose was no longer a problem for me. I can eat any diary product now with no problems. Not everyone will be so lucky. A lot of people will remain lactase deficient. Yogurt and aged cheeses are more easily tolerated because some of the lactose has been converted to lactic acid. One rule of thumb is that the higher the fat content of the dairy product, the lower the lactose level. People who are still producing some lactase would then be able to eat a very rich ice cream but would be bothered by skim milk or ice milk.

Extractions: Lactose Intolerance Dear Shopper: Most of us take food for granted. We eat what we like, when we like, as much as we like! But if you suspect that the food you enjoy is making you sick, the questions become "How do I know for sure?" and "Which foods are safe?" In this section you'll find answers to your questions about lactose intolerance, a fairly common inability to digest the natural sugar in dairy products. Don't jump the gun and assume you are lactose intolerant without a complete work-up by your physician. After all, there could be something else to blame. If lactose intolerance is your problem, keep in mind that it is often not an "all or nothing" issue. Just because a large glass of milk on an empty stomach causes symptoms doesn't mean that smaller amounts will be a problem. Read on and learn how to make this special diet easier to swallow!
