What kind of milk should I drink if I am lactose intolerant

I believe that many people do not know about lactose intolerance. Because this disease is caused by physical constitution and the incidence rate is not high, many people are not clear about its cause. In fact, people with lactose intolerance cannot drink milk containing lactose, because the lactose in milk cannot be digested and will cause diarrhea in patients. It is recommended that patients do not drink pure milk, but can drink yogurt instead.

Lactose intolerance is familiar to some people and unfamiliar to others. To put it simply, some people cannot drink milk. Others may be fine after drinking it, but he may suffer from diarrhea and feel uncomfortable after drinking it. The main reason is the lactose in milk. I believe that after reading the above introduction, everyone has a preliminary understanding of lactose intolerance. So, does it mean that if I have symptoms of lactose intolerance, I can only drink low-lactose dairy products?

Actually, not necessarily. There is another solution to lactose intolerance that you can drink and is nutritious, which is yogurt. There's more to it than just low-lactose dairy. People who are lactose intolerant can consume yogurt instead of milk. Yogurt is made by converting part of the lactose in milk into lactic acid through the action of lactic acid bacteria. This method also removes the lactose in milk and can also avoid most of the symptoms of lactose intolerance. In addition to lactose being converted into lactic acid in yogurt, all other nutrients in milk are preserved, especially calcium, which will be better absorbed by the human body under the acidic conditions of yogurt.

In addition to low-lactose dairy products and yogurt, there are ways we can train ourselves to drink milk. Taking a personal example, Xiao Liu used to be lactose intolerant. When he was about fifteen or sixteen years old, he made up his mind to train himself to drink milk, mixing one-quarter of milk with water each time. After adapting for a period of time, increase the concentration, and finally you will be able to drink pure milk. This method actually activates the activity of lactase in the intestines little by little by drinking diluted milk.

In fact, the last method is what I recommend the most, because only when you are strong yourself can you be truly strong. If you always rely on external things, you will eventually be restricted. Eating yogurt out of preference and having to eat yogurt are two different dietary attitudes. A good dietary attitude can bring us a healthier lifestyle.
