Been a long time since I had one - milk or ice cream. My lactose intolerance is super bad up. Most Indians I know (e.g. my parents) still maintain that we can digest milk in its raw form when we can’t, genetically. Oh well!
Yeah I was tested and am pretty borderline with lactose, but something else in milk messes me the hell up. Not going to skip out on ice cream though. That kinda just becomes a little problem for me and a bigger problem for those around me.
People who have never heard of milk free ice cream are a bliss. So much to learn about the world. Must be wonderful to experience all those incredible things every day.
The lactaid pills needed in his case were excessive. This managed to temporarily cure it, and permanently reduce the number/frequency of pills needed long-term to a reasonable level.
As I’m getting older, I have noticed that I can’t eat as much trash food as I used to without consequences. Lactose intolerance was annoying enough, but now It seems that I also have IBS.
I still buy lactose free milk (costs a comparative fortune) but have been toying with the idea of just cracking a lactose pill (they’re powder with gelatin capsule) and simply adding it to the milk
If a lactose pill is like 25 cents and 4L of lactose free milk is $4 more expensive, I’m thinking it’s time to run some experiments.
For me, ice cream works great with lactose pills, it’s when meals have some cheese that my coverage gets spotty, probably has to do with the ice cream being the only thing I’m eating while meals have lots of non lactose stuff that can prevent lactose pills from hitting all that dairy
