What causes Galactosemia?
Galactosemia is a very rare disease that is received through a recessive trait. It is hardly diagnosed but can also be very easily confused with lactose intolerance. Though the two can be very similar but they are very different. Galactosemia is when your body cannot process galactose and lactose intolerance is when your body cannot process lactose. Lactose and galactose can be found in generally the same food group, dairy. The very important difference between the two is that lactose intolerance causes the symptoms of gas, cramps and diarrhea and galactosemia causes excess fat to build up in the brain, cause mental retardation and finally death.
