Lactose intolerance

Deficiency in the enzyme lactase, responsible for digesting the lactose found in dairy products, is common worldwide. While almost all infants are able to digest milk and other dairy products, many children lose their lactase enzyme by the ages of three to seven.

Symptoms range from minor abdominal discomfort and bloating to severe diarrhoea in response to even small amounts of lactose. The deficiency can be diagnosed with a lactose challenge test or Food intolerance test.

Nina's Health Protocol:

Choose lactose-free or lactose-reduced dairy products.

Opt for plant-based milk alternatives that are naturally lactose-free, such as almond milk, soy milk, rice milk, oat milk, or coconut milk.

Include calcium-rich foods in your diet, such as leafy greens (spinach, kale, collard greens), fortified plant-based milk alternatives, tofu (if calcium-fortified), almonds, and canned fish with bones (such as sardines or salmon).
