Rather than cutting all dairy, patients can adjust lactose intake according to tolerance.<\/li><\/ul><p>Some people have trouble digesting lactose, but that doesn\u2019t mean giving up dairy! Read on to learn more about lactose intolerance, how it\u2019s formally diagnosed, and how you can provide the best nutrition advice to patients.<\/p><h1><strong>What is lactose?<\/strong><\/h1><p>Lactose is a type of naturally occurring sugar found in milk. It is produced by mammary glands of animals, so their resulting milk contains lactose. Cow\u2019s milk naturally contains about 5 percent lactose<sup>1<\/sup>.<\/p><p>Fermented cow\u2019s milk in yogurt has less lactose than in fluid milk because of the conversion of lactose by lactic acid bacteria. Hard cheeses contain very low levels or no lactose, while soft cheese may have more lactose depending on the production process<sup>2<\/sup>.<\/p><h1><strong>What is lactose intolerance?<\/strong><\/h1><p>Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose, a natural occurring sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Humans require lactase enzyme to break down lactose<sup>3<\/sup>. \u00a0When this enzyme is in short supply, lactose isn\u2019t broken down and gets fermented by the gut microbiota, which leads to symptoms such as:<\/p><ul><li>Diarrhea<\/li><li>Abdominal pain<\/li><li>Cramps<\/li><li>Bloating<\/li><li>Flatulence<sup>4<\/sup><\/li><\/ul><p>These symptoms usually begin about 30 minutes to two hours after consuming milk if you are lactose intolerant<sup>5<\/sup>.<\/p><h1><strong>Lactose intolerance vs. milk allergy<\/strong><\/h1><p>Lactose intolerance is often confused with a milk allergy, but the two are different. Lactose intolerance affects the digestive system and is a gastrointestinal reaction to lactose; it does not elicit an immune response. A milk allergy is an immune-mediated reaction to the protein in milk.<\/p><p>Symptoms of milk allergy may include gas, cramps, and diarrhea (which is why it\u2019s often confused with lactose intolerance) but may also include traditional allergy symptoms such as hives or wheezing<sup>6<\/sup>.<\/p><h1><strong>Types of lactose intolerance<\/strong><\/h1><p>There are three distinct types of lactose intolerance<sup>7<\/sup>:<\/p><ol><li>Primary lactose intolerance: The most common form; the result of low levels of lactase enzyme. It\u2019s usually diagnosed in teen or early adult years.<\/li><li>Secondary lactase deficiency: A transient condition that comes after suffering intestinal damage from an infection, antibiotic use, celiac disease, Crohn\u2019s disease, etc. It can happen at any age.<\/li><li>Congenital lactase deficiency: An extremely rare condition that starts at birth. Only 40 cases have been reported to-date globally.<\/li><\/ol><h1><strong>Who gets lactose intolerance?<\/strong><\/h1><p>Lactase activity is high at birth since breast milk contains lactose. Tolerance progressively declines after weaning, and some can digest more lactose than others. The ability to digest lactose is common in populations that raise cattle and consume more dairy foods, as well as their descendants<sup>8.<\/sup><\/p><p>Lactose intolerance likely started due to a genetic mutation in the LTC gene, which is responsible for making lactase enzymes<sup>9<\/sup>. \u00a0This condition is most common in people from East Asian, African and South American descent. It\u2019s least common in people from Northern European descent<sup>10<\/sup>.<\/p><h1><strong>How is lactose intolerance diagnosed?<\/strong><\/h1><p>Patients who have gas or cramps after they drink milk may think they have lactose intolerance and may erroneously self-diagnose. This is potentially harmful since they may cut out milk unnecessarily before a definitive diagnosis.<\/p><p>The most accurate diagnosis comes from a non-invasive hydrogen breath test, though lactose intolerance can also be diagnosed by a blood test<sup>11<\/sup>. \u00a0It\u2019s important to obtain a true diagnosis, because symptoms such as gas, cramps and bloating may be part of many different digestive disorders. In fact, lactose intolerance is just one potential cause of digestive symptoms.<\/p><h1><strong>If it\u2019s not lactose intolerance, what else could it be?<\/strong><\/h1><p>The symptoms of lactose intolerance can overlap with different digestive disorders, so it\u2019s important to ensure patients are properly tested and diagnosed. Other conditions that may share symptoms with lactose intolerance include\u00a0<sup>12, 13<\/sup>:<\/p><ul><li>Milk allergy<\/li><li>Other food allergies<\/li><li>Celiac disease<\/li><li>Irritable bowel syndrome and associated FODMAP triggers<\/li><li>Colitis<\/li><li>Crohn\u2019s disease<\/li><li>Excessive sugar intake<\/li><\/ul><h1><strong>Managing lactose intolerance<\/strong><\/h1><p>Eliminating milk and other dairy products is not a necessary treatment for someone who is diagnosed with lactose intolerance<sup>14<\/sup>. \u00a0This is a common misconception.<\/p><p>Several international health organizations and authorities such as the National Institute of Health, National Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Nutrition, recommend that individuals with lactose intolerance do not need eliminate milk and dairy products from their diet.\u00a0<sup>15, 16, 17<\/sup><\/p><p>Lactose intolerance varies from mild to severe<sup>18<\/sup>. \u00a0Some people with lactose intolerance can consume 12-24 grams of lactose daily if the amount is spread out over the day and consumed as part of mixed meals<sup>19<\/sup>. \u00a0Most people can digest a cup of milk (about 12 g lactose) with no problem<sup>20<\/sup>. \u00a0Here\u2019s a chart that shows the amount of lactose in a variety of dairy products:<\/p><table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\"><tbody><tr><td>Milk Product<\/td><td>Lactose Content (grams)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cow milk, 2% M.F. 250 mL<\/td><td>12.92<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cottage cheese, 2% M.F. 125 mL<\/td><td>4.62<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Yogurt, plain, 2-3.9% M.F. 125 mL<\/td><td>3.25<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cream cheese, 50 g<\/td><td>1.60<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cheddar cheese, 50 g<\/td><td>0.12<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Parmesan cheese, 50 g<\/td><td>0.08<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mozzarella cheese, 50 g<\/td><td>0.04<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Swiss cheese, 50 g<\/td><td>\u00a00.03<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p>Chart information from the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/badgut.org\/information-centre\/a-z-digestive-topics\/lactose-intolerance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canadian Society of Intestinal Research<\/a><\/p><p>Why is cheese often low in lactose? Hard matured cheeses tend to have less lactose than soft cheese. This is because lactose is lost when whey is removed, and bacterial cultures are added during the cheese-making fermentation process. As the cheese ripens and matures, the lactose gets converted into lactic acid, which does not cause intolerance<sup>21<\/sup>.<\/p><p>Patients with lactose intolerance can manage their symptoms without cutting out milk entirely. They can test which of these methods works best for them \u2013 perhaps it\u2019s a combination of these tips<sup>22<\/sup>:<\/p><ul><li>Use lactase enzyme supplements before ingesting foods that contain lactose. These supplements help break down lactose, making lactose-containing foods easier to digest<sup>23<\/sup>.<\/li><li>Try dairy products that are low in lactose, such as hard cheese (see chart above).<\/li><li>Use lactose-free dairy products. Choose milk, cheese and yogurts that are specifically labelled \u201clactose free.\u201d<\/li><li>Enjoy fermented dairy products such as yogurt, kefir and hard cheese. The fermentation process includes the use of bacteria that help break down lactose.<\/li><li>Eat lactose-containing foods at meals alongside other foods. Digesting other foods at the same time slows gastric emptying, and lactose makes up a smaller percent of the total food being digested. Less lactase enzyme is needed to break down the lactose.<\/li><\/ul><p>What is lactose free milk? Lactose-free milk is made by introducing lactase enzyme into milk. The lactase breaks down the natural occurring lactose in milk, allowing people with lactose intolerance to continue to enjoy milk.<\/p><h1><strong>Milk and health benefits<\/strong><\/h1><p>For patients with lactose intolerance, avoiding dairy isn\u2019t the answer. Milk is a nourishing whole food and is source of 15 essential nutrients including protein, calcium, vitamin D and vitamin B12.<\/p><p>Many studies support the importance of milk, cheese and yogurt as part of a healthy eating pattern. In addition to dairy foods contributing to bone and dental health, studies have linked these foods to other health benefits including reduced risk of stroke, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, colon cancer, and type 2 diabetes.\u00a0<sup>24, 25, 26, 27, 28\u00a0<\/sup><\/p><p>Plus, lactose may act as a prebiotic in the digestive system and help enhance the microbiome. People with lactose intolerance who consume dairy can develop colonic adaptation by the microbiome due to the consistent presence of lactose. This process may mimic a prebiotic effect and help people with lactose intolerance develop an ability to tolerate lactose and consume more dairy
