Children who are lactose intolerant or more precisely, who are lactose maldigesters, lack enough of the enzyme (lactase) needed to completely digest the lactose. Lactose intolerance refers to the symptoms of gastrointestinal discomfort which some people feel after drinking milk or eating lactose-containing foods. With a little experimentation, some kids find they can tolerate small servings of milk spread throughout the day. Certain cheeses and yogurts are lower in lactose. Others kids may use special lactose free milk such as Lactaid or Lacteeze.
I find the emphasized words above most interesting (obviously).
Clearly Big Milk is aware that some people aren't hep to their smooth-as-satin cocaine in a carton and that they will use any excuse to avoid the stuff. "Gastrointestinal discomfort" indeed. Come on. Experiment a little, would ya?
Sure you might puke a few times, or experience severe diarrhea, but eventually you'll find your 'sweet spot'. Just drink whatever doesn't make you sick. There. That's a good lad.
Can't handle it? How about just a few servings spread throughout the day? You don't have to like it son, we're just asking that you tolerate it. Don't be a pussy.
