What foods are eliminated from a lactose intolerance diet?
Lactose intolerance is caused by the body failing to produce the enough lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose, a sugar found in milk and the dairy products. I think firstly try to use the natural supplement of papaya chewable enzyme and others in this case. Slowly begin to add the dairy to your diet. Start with the small amounts and keep adding more. Don’t just drink a tall glass of milk with nothing else and take small amounts of dairy foods and drinks throughout the day in lactose intolerance diet.
The dietary changes for lactose intolerance should initially include the exclusion of those foods highest in lactose. If the symptoms resolve then small amounts of lactose containing foods may be reintroduced, and symptoms monitored. Most people will be able to determine their olerance level for lactose. Very rarely people may be so sensitive that they will need to exclude foods with lower levels of lactose including biscuits, cakes and other processed foods. It is important to find a suitable replacement if important foods are excluded from the diet.
