Symptoms of lactose intolerance

 

You should be alert to the possibility of being intolerant if after ingesting milk or lactose you experience the following:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Gases
  • Diarrhea

Being lactose intolerant is not a problem that poses a serious threat to health, outside of the symptoms mentioned above. However, it is a condition to pay attention to so that it does not affect your lifestyle and cause you discomfort because milk is in many places. It is important to note that the severity of the symptoms varies with the patient, as many people react to the smallest amount of milk, while others do need to be in closer contact.

Why am I lactose intolerant?

 

As we have already mentioned, the LCT and the enzyme of the protein lactose, to a small extent in your body, is the cause of your intolerance. It occurs to a greater extent after puberty and adolescence and can worsen with age.

It is possible to experience transient or temporary intolerance when it comes to conditions or abnormalities in the intestinal system. Lack of mucosa, parasites, gastroenteritis or colitis, to name a few.
