People who think they have a milk allergy because they've suffered discomfort after drinking it are more likely experiencing a degree of lactose intolerance and symptoms can be alleviated without avoiding dairy altogether. Believe it or not, even people who believe they're lactose intolerant can consume milk, say health professionals. In fact, those who avoid dairy and its essential nutrients run the risk of developing osteoporosis and other maladies. Many ethnic minorities cannot consume milk. Drink milk with meals or snacks.
Symptoms are generally milder if milk is consumed with other foods.
Take a commercial lactase preparation when consuming dairy products. Eat yogurt and hard cheeses such as Cheddar, Monterey Jack and Mozzarella. These foods have all the calcium but less lactose than softer cheeses and milk. Designed and built by Isys Idea Systems, Inc.
