In some persons, their bodies won`t be able to digest or break down lactose. This condition is termed as lactose intolerance. It is known that lactose is present in milk and other milk products etc. Lactase is an important enzyme that helps our body to digest lactose and when our small intestines do not make sufficient amounts of this enzyme then lactose intolerance occurs in us.<\/span><\/p>\n Symptoms of lactose intolerance in us are<\/span><\/p>\n Bloating:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n It is worthy to note that bloating in the abdomen is one of the most common symptoms associated with lactose intolerance issues. Some persons would feel full after drinking milk and this is mainly because of fermentation of undigested lactose in the colon. This could lead to gas and discomfort etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Diarrhoea:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Loose motion or diarrhoea is also an important symptom of lactose intolerance. Water would be pulled into the intestines as the body cannot break down lactose properly. This would lead to diarrhoea.<\/span><\/p>\n Stomach cramping:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Those who are lactose intolerant would get abdominal cramps in them and would find it very difficult. Point is that these cramps could be mild to severe and could appear 30 min to 2 hours after intake of dairy products etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Flatulence or gas formation:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Gas formation could lead to huge embarrassment for us.\u00a0 Lactose fermentation in the colon could lead to increased gas etc. Sometimes, gas formation in us can also happen due to some medications also.<\/span><\/p>\n Nausea:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n There are some\u00a0people\u00a0who feel nauseated after the intake of certain dairy foods. Vomiting might also occur when large amounts of lactose are consumed by\u00a0them, especially\u00a0in an empty\u00a0stomach.<\/p>\n Rumbling sounds in stomach:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Excessive gas and fluid in the intestines can lead to hyperactive bowel sounds mainly after consuming dairy products.
