Lactose intolerance is completely different from allergy to milk.  If you eat caramels (the worst !!! for people with lactose intolerance) and do not get terribly ill about 1 day to 36 hours later, then you have something else wrong.\nThis does not make you throw up though.\n\nLactase is an enzyme that helps you to digest milk, cheese and butter (all containing lactose, cheese has more than milk and butter has the most).  \n\nAllergies are something completely different.\n\nYou need to keep a careful record of what you eat, noting the day and time of day.  Also record when you have pains.  Take the record with you (about 7 days worth) when you visit the doctor.\n\nYou need to visit a doctor.  If you are too sick to keep records, visit the doctor now, ASAP.\n\nIf you really are pretty sure milk is the culprit, buy some LACTAID enzyme tablets at the drug store.  Use two or three per glass of milk.  You will need even more for things like ice cream, cheese cake, cheddar cheese.  Skip the caramels, even the whole bottle of LACTAID does not help with those.\n\nLACTAID tablets are a natural enzyme, there is no danger of overdose, you could eat 40 tablets by themselves and it would not be harmful, but it would be a waste of good tablets.  MOst bread in America has milk in it, so do a lot of other things.  You have to start reading ingredient labels if it turns out you are lactose intolerant.  Rye Bread is always safe, there are others.  Bread that says stearoyl lactylate (something like that) is okay.  Only it says milk, butter, lactose do you need to use tablets with it.\n\nIf the pills relieve your problem with dairy products then it is lactose intolerance.  If they do not, then it is something else.\n\nSome people are allergic to wheat gluten or milk or other foods. \n\nBEST ADVICE:  Do not waste time with an ordinary doctor who just wants to make money.   See an ALLERGY specialist.  That way you have someone experienced with allergy symptoms for food allergies looking at you.  Even if it turns out not to be allergies he will be able still to help find out the real cause, such as maybe lactose intolerance, something completely different from allergy.\n\nAny persistent pain is a sign of something going on...You must see a doctor about that, could be NONE OF THE ABOVE.\n\nSee the doctor, sweetie.  The throwing up is mostly a sign of other things.

Usually you will get gas pain in your side or lower gut. Or, you might get a rash (like I do) on your face. Both reactions will go away eventually, but your body clearly wants to keep you away from dairy! I like soy milk for that very reason!

I never heard of that happening before. And I have been taking it every morning for the past 6 years. And the label says 1 scoop, in an 8 oz glass of 1 per cent milk. You could be taking to much..You better read that again....\n\nI would have yourself checked out maybe there is something in it  and is affecting your nervous system.

Renin does not have a lot to do with milk.  It is part of a long chain of enzymatic reactions involved in control of blood pressure.  It is present in all adults.  You are thinking of rennet I believe.

no, you may have a calcium alergy. if you can afford it get some blood work done to figure out if you have any food allergies. Start by talking to your doctor.

In some formulas there might be.. look for milk protein, lactose, whey, calcium carbonate(I think)... those are all things that will irritate a baby allergic to milk. i grew out of my alergy to milk but symptoms are TERRIBLE stomach pains, coughing, getting really stuffed up (in nose and sinuses)

I found that porridge helped mine. Scott`s porage oats, not the ready brek sort. I don`t have cows milk anymore, instead I have sweetened soya milk. In fact it`s much nicer on cereals, inc the porridge, and you can`t tell in cooking. Now drink earl grey tea (no milk) and black coffee. Don`t eat yogurt`s, cottage cheese, and mayo can upset. Horlicks was also a culprit. I found that dairy was the main cause, and by a process of elimination I cut things out completely or cut down on them. I don`t take any meds though. Worry and anxiety can aggravate it as well.

You don't deprive them from "milking"-- You use a breast pump and introduce a bottle, filling it with breast milk... and a small amt. of baby rice-- The rice keeps the baby fuller,  and the bottle helps start the process... the key is to continue using breast milk in the bottle for a few,. alternating between formula and breast milk  so as not to freak out the baby's digestive track. The taste of the breast milk will help the transition, but Baby will fight the bottle until he tastes what's in it!!

Firstly go to your GP he/she can check that it is not anything else and possibly do allergy tests to see if it is lactose intolerance.It is possible for an intolerance to make itself felt practically overnight, are you stressed at the moment this is often a factor with sudden onset allergies/intolerances.In the meantime I would suggest cutting out milk products, if it goes away you probably have yor answer.

Not unless a doctor tells you that you're lactose intolerant.  Lots of people think they are...but far fewer are ACTUALLY intolerant of dairy.  That's a myth.  Some kinds of dairy are extremely good for you...did you know that yogurt can make your flatulence less stinky?  I just read that today on WebMD.

no! you are not infertile. you are only 'lactose intolerance'. Pls note that whatever we eat as human being, there are enzymes in our stomach that works on it, they break it down to the level that will permit it passage to the blood stream. \n\nIn milk, there is something called lactose. Therefore, present in the stomach is an enzyme called lactase which breaks down the lactose. But in your case you seem to be naturally low in that enzyme called 'lactase' and that is why you burp whenever you take milk. \n\nSimply consult your doctor who will teach you how to handle the case of 'lactose intolerance' without stres. i have been a victim before, but now it no longer affect me except whenever i throw caution into the air. BEST OF SUCCESS.

Not sure what exactly is the healthy practice you are questioning - is it drinking a bottle of milk a day (which is good for you), sipping cold milk out of the bottle (it's your germs - shouldn't hurt you) or is it that you warm the milk, drink some, put it back in the refrigerator and then go warm it up again when you want more throughout the day? If you are indeed going through several cycles of warming and cooling the same milk bottle  - I would think that can't be too good for the milk, therefore not too good for you either. Just warm up what you need. \n\nBut if you are just questioning drinking milk, hey I guess if you've done this for many years and you are healthy - stick with what works for you.

You're not born with allergies. YOu can develop one to anything at anytime in your life. That really is annoying, isn't it? I don't think anyone can tell you why. I have my own theory. I think maybe you had some bad milk (may have had some thing in it like a bacteria or chemical) that kicked up your immune system. And so now, even when you drink any milk with nothing bad in it, your body sees that milk as the enemy and wants to get it out of your body fast. What you could try doing is not drinking milk for a time period say three months and then introduce it slowly using organic milk. Otherwise, there's always Lactaid. Some people drink a lot of soy milk. But the newest research says you have to watch that as it can cause problems with thyroid.

When you are told NOT to do something when taking a medication, it is for a reason.  You do not take milk/dairy products with certain medications because the dairy products either interfere with the absorption of the medication or they totally deactivate it.  Why pay all that money for a medication if you are going to sabotage it's ability to work by consuming a dairy product?  If you want to get better, take the medication exactly as described....even if it means avoiding certain foods during that time.

mixed with a healthy diet and exercise you could lose weight. Not on milk alone. Are you mad?
