Managing lactose intolerance

Have you been diagnosed as lactose intolerant? You’ll be happy to know that according to the National Institutes of Health, most people experiencing lactose intolerance don’t need to avoid milk and dairy. Many people can build their tolerance, while limiting symptoms, by slowly and gradually adding small amounts of dairy products to their diet. Another way to benefit from dairy nutrition is to try yogurt, which is generally well tolerated since its active bacteria help digest lactose.
