Darn

Doc thinks says I am lactose intolerant but i love milk and cheese. Just googled the symptoms and they correlate. Anyone want the huge piece of Stilton in my fridge?

    I'll take the Stilton with whatever crackers you have in the larder ;-)

    Lactose intolerant = bugger.

    Is that a euphemism?


    On a more serious note best wishes in handling your intolerance. It could be worse, it could have been your better half which would mean no more BJ's unless your PH levels are high and no cheesey manhood

    Cheddar cheese has no lactose present (well, legally only 'trace' elements); it is all released and removed during the modern cheese manufacture as the by-product 'whey'. If you look at the nutritional content there is 0 grams of carbohydrate (sugar) in cheddar cheese.

    Stilton is only 0.8% lactose, and if you work out how you could restrict yourself to only eating a very small amount, let me know how :D

    One sympathizes.

    Sheep cheese seems to work for me. Not sure if it is lactose or some other dairy ingredient but my runny nose and persistent cough have cleared up.

    I can fully sympathize with you pal, although mines a dairy protein allergy (apparently!)
    Takes a little while, but soya in cereal is actually quite nice now and I love black coffee!!
    More importantly, Dominos can do all their pizzas without cheese! :D

  • You have my sympathy..... My wife is highy lactose intolerant... Tested at local hospital.
    If she is going to have something that may contain milk, cream, cheese etcetera. She takes a lactase tablet or two just prior to eating.
    This replaces the enzyme she is no longer producing, but she doesn't indulge heavily inthe high lactose foods.
    The tablets seem to work quite well, stopping the nasty side affects.
    Again she was tested at hospital so we are sure it is lactose intolerance rather than an allergic reaction.

    Just over a week of Dairy and with the exception of black coffee i am not really missing the milk. Did try a few types of milk alternatives and oat milk was about the best, still cant bring myself to drink soya in any form.

    Minor slip up with a big piece of bread and butter pudding on sunday after a longish ride and i really noticed it last night...... as did the wife.
