| Milk for Lactose-Intolerant People
So everytime I drink milk I get the runs...which is pretty gay...I can eat dairy-products that are made with milk like Ice-cream and Cheese and I'm fine but it's just when I drink a glass of milk I get the runs.
What's the best tasting or best alternative to milk for Lactose Intolerant people?
Thanks.

Or you can skip milk all together. It's not like it's a necessity in life.

I find that if I drink milk in the morning I sometimes get a stomach ache.
During the rest of the day, a glass or two are fine.

its tough when there are a lot of foods and drinks that have milk products in them, especially in the north america diet.
its even more rough when you develop lactose intolerance. in my case, i was easily a 4L jug of milk a week person. i grew up drinking milk, and pretty much the only one in the family that did.
and sucks that i cant even eat ice cream! *insert starwars darth vaders... NooOOoOOOOOOOO!!!* Quote:

sounds like BS to me...anyways, back on topic...i get the runs as well, but drink lil by lil daily and ur system will get use to lactose again...I also take lactaid pills for those times i'm out and about "pop in mouth and it dissolves"

i agree with this. i use to drink milk back then but i stopped drinking for like 4 years. When i started drinking milk again i get the runs and stomach ache all together coupled with bloating or gas. I kept drinking a small amount until my body got used to it again. Now im drinking 2 glasses a day and have no problems. Milk has bacterias and also milk is a liquid that is hard to digest. your digestive system just has to get used to it. Although for lactose intolerant ppl its obviously a different case. OP is not likely lactose intolerant cuz he can eat other dairy products.

I find that, in HK anyway, some brands of milk are hard to stomach. I am not the least bit lactose intolerant, but there are some brands that give me the nastiest ass-ripping farts. It's probably milk from China  | |

Therefore, if you don't break down lactose, it wont get absorbed and then it basically causes osmotic diarrhea.
It is actually really common too.

sunrise soy milk light for me! i've always loved milk and in recent years have become unable to stomach it. i've tried skim for awhile but i find that even then it doesn't sit too well with me so now it's purely soy for me!

I don't like soy milk at all. I can eat tofu no problem, but the thought of drinking liquid tofu just doesn't sit well with me.

Well it's worse in pretty much every other way too...

try conditioning to see if you really are lactose intolerant.
i find if you can eat yogart just fine then you probably arent lactose intolerant.
