Home Jackson Gastro Patient Education Lactose Intolerance Lactose intolerance develops when the body has difficulty digesting whole and skim milk and other dairy products. Lactose is a milk sugar and like most sugars, it is broken down by enzymes in the intestinal tract so it can be absorbed as an energy source. The enzyme that breaks down lactose is called lactase. When the intestine does not contain lactase, then lactose intolerance can occur. It is a troublesome and annoying problem, but it is never a serious one. Who Has Lactose Intolerance? As commonly expected, infants and small children have the enzyme lactase so they can digest mothers' milk. However, during childhood, lactase begins to disappear in many people. Some ethnic groups are more likely to develop lactose intolerance. By adolescence, it is gone in about 75% of African-Americans, Jews, Native Americans, Mexicans, and in 90% of Asians. So the condition is very common. What Are The Symptoms?

32. Lactose-Free Low-Lactose Diet It is important to remember that while lactose intolerance can cause quiteuncomfortable symptoms, it does not cause damage to the intestine. http://www.gicare.com/pated/edtgs05.htm

Home Jackson Gastro Patient Education Lactose-Free Low-Lactose Diet Purpose Lactose is the simple sugar found in milk and milk products. It can also be found in a variety of other foods and even as a filler in some pills and capsules. The enzyme lactase, present in the lining of the small intestine, splits lactose into two simple sugars. These simple sugars can then be absorbed by the body and used as nourishment. In infants, milk is the main part of the diet, so it is natural and normal for lactase production to gradually decrease as the diet becomes more varied. This tends to occur in childhood and adolescence in African Americans, Native American Indians, Hispanics, Arabs, Jews, and Asians. Northern European white races seem to keep lactase production the longest. When lactase is absent, lactose passes through the intestine to the colon (large bowel), carrying extra fluid with it. In the colon, bacteria break down lactose into lactic acid and certain gases. Lactic acid is an irritant and laxative. It can cause symptoms such as bloating, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and gas or flatus. Lactase activity is reduced in people with certain intestinal conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and celiac disease (gluten enteropathy). Patients taking certain drugs and alcoholic patients may also be lactose intolerant. Finally, patients with surgical removal of part of the stomach or a large portion of the small intestine may need to reduce lactose in the diet.

Understanding Lactose Intolerance What is lactose intolerance? Lactose Intolerance is the term used for people (like me) who cannot digest dairy products. We were born without or have lost the digestive enzyme enabling us to digest most milk and dairy products containing...lactose. The amount of lactase in the digestive system decreases as one gets older; you may have been able to digest milk as a child but now experience cramps, bloating, canker sores, yeast infections, diarrhea and gas when you consume milk. (It only gets better from here, really, not much more about gas, I promise.) Well, what is lactose? Lactose is the ingredient in foods which affects the lactose intolerant negatively. (Note that lactase is not the same thing as lactose lactose (lak'tos) noun 1. A disaccharide, C12 H22 O11, found in milk, that may be hydrolyzed to yield glucose and galactose. 2.

Lactose intolerance Lactose intolerance is the condition in which lactase , an enzyme needed for proper metabolization of lactose (a constituent of milk and other dairy products), is not produced in adulthood. With lactose intolerance, the result of consuming lactose or a lactose-containing food is excess gas production and often diarrhea. In western cultures milk products are nearly ubiquitous and are contained in at least a small amount in almost all recipes, restaurant dishes, and processed food. People with lactose intolerance need to be very careful reading food ingredient labels if they wish to avoid consuming lactose.

KidsHealth Teens Nutrition Basics Jessie was so embarrassed! About an hour after chowing down on pizza and ice cream with a group of friends, her stomach suddenly started rumbling, and she began farting over and over. Then Jessie's stomach began to ache and she had to run to the restroom every few minutes. In the excitement of an afternoon hanging out at the mall, Jessie had forgotten to watch her dairy intake. Jessie has lactose intolerance and her symptoms flare up when she eats more dairy than her body can handle. What Is Lactose Intolerance and What Causes It? Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest a sugar called lactose that is present in milk and dairy products. Normally when you eat something containing lactose, the body produces an enzyme called lactase in the small intestine. Lactase breaks down lactose into simpler sugar forms called glucose and galactose , which are then easily absorbed into the bloodstream and turned into energy - fuel for our bodies. People with lactose intolerance do not produce enough of the lactase enzyme to break down lactose. Instead undigested lactose sits in the gut causing gas, bloating, and stomach cramps, and then usually diarrhea because the intestine cannot absorb the lactose-containing foods. The American Dietetic Association estimates that between 30 and 50 million Americans are lactose intolerant. Lactose intolerance seems to affect guys and girls equally. But certain ethnic groups are more likely to be affected. About 90% of Asian Americans are lactose intolerant, and up to 75% of African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Native Americans also have symptoms of lactose intolerance.

How is lactose intolerance diagnosed? How is lactose intolerance treated? How is nutrition balanced? ... For More Information What is lactose intolerance? Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest significant amounts of lactose, the predominant sugar of milk. This inability results from a shortage of the enzyme lactase, which is normally produced by the cells that line the small intestine. Lactase breaks down milk sugar into simpler forms that can then be absorbed into the bloodstream. When there is not enough lactase to digest the amount of lactose consumed, the results, although not usually dangerous, may be very distressing. While not all persons deficient in lactase have symptoms, those who do are considered to be lactose intolerant. The digestive tract Common symptoms include nausea, cramps, bloating, gas, and diarrhea, which begin about 30 minutes to 2 hours after eating or drinking foods containing lactose. The severity of symptoms varies depending on the amount of lactose each individual can tolerate. Some causes of lactose intolerance are well known. For instance, certain digestive diseases and injuries to the small intestine can reduce the amount of enzymes produced. In rare cases, children are born without the ability to produce lactase. For most people, though, lactase deficiency is a condition that develops naturally over time. After about the age of 2 years, the body begins to produce less lactase. However, many people may not experience symptoms until they are much older.

KidsHealth Kids Kids' Health Problems Allergies and Immune System At your best friend's sleepover party last weekend, everyone pigged out on cheese pizza and ice cream. Then they flopped on their sleeping bags for a night of DVDs. You were having a great time, but after about an hour you started feeling awful. First your stomach felt really full - almost too full. Then it started to ache and you had a lot of gas - phew! Before long, you were running to the bathroom because you had to poop and you couldn't wait! Oh, no! You hadn't been feeling sick before, and no one else felt yucky. So why was your stomach in knots? Maybe you have lactose intolerance (say: lak -tose in- tah -luh-runtz). What Is Lactose Intolerance? People who have lactose intolerance have trouble digesting (say: dye -jest-ing) lactose, a type of sugar found in milk and other dairy foods. Lactose intolerance does not mean you are allergic to milk, but you will probably feel bad after drinking milk or eating cheese, ice cream, or anything else containing lactose. As with everything else you eat, your body needs to digest lactose to be able to use it for fuel. The small intestine normally makes a special substance called lactase (say:
