Lactose intolerance

Description Lactose intolerant is when a person’s body cannot digest lactose within dairy products, which is a sugar that is found in milk and other dairy products. But, depending on the dairy product, it varies on how much it effects the person eating it.

Symptoms  Bloating  Pain or cramps in lower stomach  Gas  Diarrhea  Throwing up

Test -Hydrogen breath test To test for lactose intolerance you are given a lactose solution and your breath would be tested, if you have a large amount of hydrogen you are lactose intolerant. - Lactose tolerance test You are given a lactose solution and then they take a sample of your blood, they measure your blood sugars, if your blood sugar levels rise slowly or not at all then you are lactose intolerant.

Treatment/cure  There are no known cures for being lactose intolerant, however there is a pill you can take after drinking or eating milk products which helps reduce the reaction your body has to the milk products.  You are not born lactose intolerant, but you can develop it as you grow. Therefore there is no way to prevent being lactose intolerant.
