Diarrhea or constipation: intestines in distress
Lactose intolerance means that your body doesn’t produce enough lactase, the enzyme needed to digest lactose. As a result, this undigested sugar ferments in the intestine, causing diarrhea or, conversely, constipation.
If you experience digestive problems after consuming milk or cheese, it may be time to review your diet.
