Lactose Intolerance occurs in those who are unable to digest the main sugar (lactose) found in milk and dairy products. As a result, severe stomach discomfort such as bloating, gas, and abdominal cramps can occur. These symptoms can arise 30 minutes to 2 hours after consuming dairy products and can be very unpleasant. Going dairy-free is one way to prevent symptoms, but can be a challenge to manage.
