Lactose Intolerance

Lactose Intolerance

Lactose intolerance is quite common, so why are so many people reacting to lactose based foods? The answer lies is the inability of the digestive system to absorb and utilise lactose, the predominant sugar in cow’s milk. After all it is a food that is intended for growing calves not humans. Goat’s milk is the nearest milk tolerated by humans.
