Milk - Liquid Doom

RedVelvetCurls

I affectionately call milk "liquid doom" because I'm lactose intolerant. But I just can't not eat it. I have skimmed milk in my cereal, which makes me feel a little sloshy but it's kinder to me than semi skimmed or full fat. I also eat small amounts of cheese and chocolate, and cope with the side effects very well.

Now I've tried other kinds of milk - soy, almond, coconut, rice, goat - but I don't like them. Is there any other kind of milk that tastes like regular milk? I'm at my wit's end searching. :indifferent:

If you are in the UK have you tried Lactofree?

My sons used it when they were at their worst. They have mainly grown out of the problem now, mainly to reducing their lactose intake.

Lactofree

It's normal milk, but they take out the vast majority of lactose and put some lactase in it so its perfectly safe for us lactosey people!

Have you ever tried raw milk? When milk is pasteurized the enzymes that aid in its digestion are killed. Here are some links for more info.

I'm lactose intolerant, too! But I love dairy so I take Lactaid Ultra. I get it from Wal-Mart and they also have a generic that works just as well! Just take it with your first bite of dairy or drink of milk and you'll be right as rain! :-)

My husband is lactose-intolerant and is able to drink Acidophilus milk without any problems.
