I can't answer this question, but I had a particularly bad episode after being served ice cream (and led to believe it was Frozen Yogurt which for whatever reason causes me no problems). I woke up that night in horrible pain. Had no pills to take. I remember trying to drink a lot of water but it didn't help. I went back to bed still in pain. Next thing I know I'm in an ambulence on my way to the hospital having had my first ever seizure. Haven't had another since. Anybody else?

What is the carbohydrate in milk that could cause milk intolerance?
Lactose is a simple carbohydrate and typically is the reason for milk intolerance in people. Lactose is a simple sugar/carbohydrate.
Does diarrhea cause lactose intolerance?
Because your body lacks the enzyme lactase which is necessary for the digestion of lactose
Does being lactose intolerant cause bad skin?
There's no known connection between lactose intolerance and bad skin.
What lack of enzyme cause lactose intolerance?
The enzyme which the body uses to digest lactose is lactase.
I have no insurance how can i tell if i am lactose or celiac intolerant without the help of a dr?
just to add to my question, i have some symptoms that seem to apply to both celiac intolerance AND lactose intolerance. I'm trying the whole elimination diet now, one by one...but can't celiac actually cause lactose intolerance??
Which conditions and diseases cause lactose intolerance?
Following is a list of causes or underlying conditions that could possibly cause Lactose Intolerance: * Chronic digestive diseases * Crohn's disease * Coeliac's disease * Gastroenteritis * Inflammatory bowel diseases * Intestinal injury
What might happen if lactase was not there or didnt work properly?
The sugar lactose would not be broken down. This one cause of lactose intolerance in someone who can't drink milk or eat milk based products. Symptoms of lactose intolerance are diarrhea, flatulence (passing gas), and abdominal pain.
Is lactose intolerance an adaptation to an environmental factor?
There are three classifications of lactose intolerance. The two most common are environmentally induced, the third is a result of genetics.1. Primary lactose intolerance. Environmentally induced when weaning a child in non-dairy consuming societies. This is found in many Asian and African cultures, where industrialized and commercial dairy products are uncommon.2. Secondary lactose intolerance. Environmentally induced, resulting from certain gastrointestinal diseases, including exposure tointestinal parasites such as Giardia lamblia. In such cases the production of lactase may be permanently disrupted. A very common cause of temporary lactose intolerance is gastroenteritis, particularly when the gastroenteritis is caused by rotavirus. Another form of temporary lactose intolerance is lactose overload in infants.3. Congenital lactase deficiency. A genetic disorder which prevents enzymatic production of lactase. Present at birth, and diagnosed in early infancy.
Why do experts believe that genetics is involved in primary carbohydrate intolerance?
Because of the uneven distribution of enzyme deficiency based on race and ethnic heritage, especially in lactose intolerance, genetics are believed to play a role in the cause of primary carbohydrate intolerance.
Can you develop lactose intolerance?
Yes. Lactose intolerance is a phenomena of the digestive system. Just because you have milk in the mammeries has no bearing on what happens to milk in the intestines. The same argument goes for lactose intolerant (human) mothers.
Do dairy products cause constipation?
When a person is lactose intolerant, any milk that is not lactose free will cause that person to have gas.? Lactose intolerance means a person does not have enough production of lactase enzyme.? When lactose is not broken down, it passes into the intestine where bacteria in the gut digest it and release gas.
Does lactose intolerance cause bad breath?
no. as usually if not caused by gum disease, bad breath is caused by a gas from the stomach. someone who is lactose intolerant would have bad breath if consuming dairy produce as it would cause a stomach upset
