When it comes to gut health, lactose intolerance can be the culprit to symptoms such as bloating, diarrhea and abdominal cramps, especially directly after the consumption of dairy products like milk, yogurt or ice cream. Lactose intolerance is classified as a digestive disorder that affects over 75% of the world’s total population. A vast majority of those suffering from lactose intolerance don’t realize the symptoms are being caused from dairy directly. Most of those who have lactose intolerance don’t experience symptoms until after the age of 5, although they can develop at any time throughout their life.
