  1. milk intolerance

    Milk intolerance, also referred to as lactose intolerance, is a digestive disorder where the body is unable to fully digest lactose, the main sugar found in milk and other dairy products. This intolerance is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down lactose in the body. Symptoms can include bloating, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps after consuming dairy products. It's important to note that milk intolerance is not the same as a milk allergy, which involves the immune system.
