Unfortunately, this strategy didn't work to prevent my kid from having the same milk allergy that I do. In fact, it's worse.
Not fatal or anything. His lips become bright red, swelling slightly and peel later, he obviously gets days of the shits, and if it's repeated exposure he will get rashes all over. And we're talking some small amount of milk powder or unexpected butter deep in the ingredients of a baked good - if he actually consumed something like real milk, butter, or cheese, it would be much worse.
Goat cheese seems fine. It's something about the cow milk proteins.
For me, it's just a serious case of the shits when it's the real deal. I guess my millennial upbringing of a glass of milk daily conditioned some small amount of tolerance.
Obviously nowhere near that extreme, but I know a shockingly large number of millennials (and not just the Asian babies) who, for one reason or another, had soy or nut milk as a baby, dairy milk almost our entire lives, and then realized we were lactose intolerant like late 20s/early 30s.
It, again, is obviously not that extreme. But there is very much the idea that being gassy and having "weird poops" was normal because... it was. In the sense we were constantly poisoning our bodies.
It always makes me wonder about a friend who talks about how peanut butter "makes me puffy". Is it just a body reaction to the high fat content or is it a mild allergic reaction?
That's how lactose intolerance works. You start out getting milk from your mother, you don't become intolerant usually until the end of puberty.
you can gain lactose intolerance later in life, or produce less galactase to be able to break it down.
its not inherently what youre born with.
Im definitely of the group whose tolerance has decreased overtime.
I mean literally noone is born lactose intolerant. You'd just starve.
Genetic lactose intolerance develops some time later through a variation in gene expression. But the effects of lactose intolerance also vary more than that, because if you continue to consume milk your gut biome changes to reflect the abundance of nutrients.
It's also possible for lactose intolerance to get worse as you get older - I say, as a 40+ year old who has had to cut milk out of his regular diet to have normal poops again.
I would get ear infections as a kid with cows milk, goat was fine.
