Are you lactose Intolerant ?

[Medulla]

I just got my results back from the doc and my worst fears have be realised. I am part of Lactose Intolerant Gang I thought I avoided this crap but no apparently you can develop LI during your teens. No more excessive cheese consumption bye bye Hushållsost you will be missed. I've had dairy my whole life drank milk as if it was water now my body can't digest lactose properly anymore WTF?

Are any of you guys Lactose Intolerant? Were you born with it or developed it later on in life?

You can't drink caano?? Perhaps you're Kikuyu after all

 

[Veteran]

Nah my body is a powerhouse, I have no allergies/genetic diseases or nuthin.

 

[halwa]

I used to be as a child but not anymore.

I found out that camel milk is a good substitute if you're lactose intolerant. It doesn't contain beta-lactoglobulin, which is the protein found in cow's milk that causes allergic reactions. It's easier to drink because it only contains 2% fat and also gives other digestive health benefits.

It would be cool if somebody could provide stats on lactose intolerance in Somalis.

 

[Macalin M]

Nah.

Can't drink Caano but solid forms of lactose don't effect me as fast so I can still kinda eat it. Don't mock me today it's me, tomorrow it could be you !

This ain't fair why do you get to join the family and I get kicked out?

Impossible, both of my parents aren't and my grandparents weren't either. Imma drink a glass of milk right now

 

[Nostalgia]

Weird.
I was just wondering about this. I ate some vanilla ice cream yesterday and got a tummy ache. I think I might have developed it recently.

Welcome to the gang sis buy some lactoaid pills and live life the same way you were before I'm sure there are more somalis with this issue.

Used to, but not anymore

African pastoralists have developed mutations for lactase persistence. The mutation rate correlates strongly with the pattern of domestication of animals, but there are also other unknown reasons besides the genetic variants.
