Best Answer

lactose intolerance is were you are unable to digest the protein lactose in milk because your body doesn't produce lactase to break it down into sugars. When you are young and feeding on your mothers milk, (or bottle fed) the genes that are responsible for the production of lactase are activated. But as you grow older these genes become in active. it western cultures, these genes remain active as we have social presures for the consumption of milk. (such as eating ice cream) People like you who dont produce the lactase are called lactose intolerant.

Its not really some thing you can treat. Different people have different levels of lactose intolerance. Find out how much milk you can have before being sick or change to thing like soy milk or instead of ice cream have sorbet instead. But to answer your first question nothing as it does not work that way. the lactase must be produced by the body.

There are no natural supplements that are proven to be safe to help with lactose intolerance. Humans are the only mammels that consume milk or dairy from other animal species. It is common for humans not to tolerate something we are not suppose to put into our body. The best thing you can do is avoid dairy or replace cow dairy with rice, soy, or almond dairy products that your body can tolerate.
