Lactose intolerance is a condition where the body has difficulty digesting lactose, a sugar found in milk and dairy products. This occurs due to a deficiency of lactase, the enzyme needed to break down lactose in the digestive system. As a result, individuals with lactose intolerance may experience symptoms such as bloating, gas, diarrhea, or abdominal pain after consuming dairy products. Management typically involves dietary adjustments, such as reducing or avoiding lactose-containing foods.
