Hello, I think I’m lactose intolerant. How do I know for sure? I feel bloated after having any dairy product but not always. Can anyone tell me How would I know if I am lactose intolerant?

@sandra-0 Hello, lactose intolerance can cause severe digestive problems for those who continue to consume foods that contain lactose. The most common symptoms of lactose intolerance include: Bloating. Gas pains in the stomach and chest. You can test for lactose intolerance at home and avoid milk and lactose-containing foods for several days. Then on a free morning, such as a Saturday, drink two large glasses of skim or low-fat milk (14-16 oz). If symptoms develop within four hours, the diagnosis of lactose intolerance is fairly certain. Thanks!!
