Meaning / Definition

 

 Lactose Intolerance means the body cannot easily digest lactose, a type of natural sugar found in milk and dairy products.It includes cheese and ice cream.

 

                 lactose intolerance cartoon humor: 'The Ailing Matisse tries cutting out meat and dairy products.'

 

 


Causes and Effects

  • According to scientists  and health researchers,Lactose intolerance can be caused by several factors:

           there is the common type, which is the  primary lactase defiency starts at a young age.the first produce plenty of lactate , which is crucial for a baby's growth. However,as children replace milk with alternatives.the lactate might decrease but it still is high for digesting the amount of dairy.in an adult diet. Lactase production falls sharply,making dairy products hard for digestion in adult years.

 

  • Secondary lactase defiencey. This form occurs when your small intestine is affected either by an illness or a surgery. Other diseases associated with this intolerance is Crohn's  disease.

  

  • The Congenital  lactase deficiency .One of the rarest disease in the 3.this disorder is passed from generation in a pattern  of inheritance(autosomal recessive)  that the mother and father must pass on the gene variant for a child to be affected. Premature babies might also carry the lactose intolerance gene as of the insufficient level.

  • Flatulence(gas)

  • Nausea,which might be accompanied by vomitting

       

 


Prevention and Treatment

 

Unfortunately,there is no cure for Lactose intolerance as it might be inherited.However,there is a cure to solve the Take in lactase ill symptoms temporarily if we accidentally consumed lactose/lactates.

Step1: Feeling nauseous? lie down immediately if you feel dizzy and try to not fidget.

 

Step2: have a switched on fan to eliminate the aggravating smells and let it blow on your body/face so you have enough air.Take slow,deep breaths.

 

Step3: Take medication if you feel some pain or swelling in your stomach such as bismuth and loperamide.

 

Step4: Re hydrate yourself if you are having diarrhea by drinking plenty of water and broths. No caffeine or alcohol is to be consumed.

 

                                                                                          STEPS TO PREVENT AND ENJOY YOUR FOOD AND LACTOSE INTOLERANCE.

 

                 Hey!! even though you are lactose intolerant, you still can enjoy them!! However,take note not to have big amounts or you might go to the toilets 6 minutes...

  • eat cheese that contains less lactose such as cheddar cheese and Swiss cheese.
  • Drink fat-free milk and eat with solid foods that is either non-lactose or has less lactose.
  • Choose other milk alternatives such as  hazelnut and soy.
  • Have a cocoa powder and consume it before eating lactose intolerant foods and also help to slow down the process of which food is emptied from the stomach.

Link to Other Illnesses or Diseases

 

There are many illnesses that are really related to this disease itself. so,we decided to name a few.

 

1)Osteoporosis.people might wonder,"well,if you don't consume dairy product(which is one part of our diet), aren't your bones going to be weak?" well,yes. As people with lactose intolerance is not able to take in such lactose found in many products,this might be a risk to our bones for protection.

 

Don't take my words seriously,but there are researches that state that this might not be a problem.the ideas might be conflicting. However, if you are worried,there are  some tips to still make your bones healthy !

 

2)Celiac Disease.At first,What is it?Celiac Disease is a disorder when ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine.(just so you were eating healthy,no,you're not).Strange,right? By the way,they are related

as lactose intolerance is a side effect of celiac disease. Celiacs who eat gluten would eventually become lactose intolerant as the villi and micro villi in the small intestine gets damaged,hence not capable of breaking down lactose...
