Answer:

I hate to say it like this but humans were never desgined to drink milk, so it is only natural that the human body will not be able to handle it properly. Technically everyone is lactose intolerant, it just affects everyone differently. Some people are affected later in their life, some sooner. Also did you know that prostate cancer comes from drinking and eating all types of dairy? I recently found this out from a family member. Just giving you guys something to think about.

(P.S. Almond milk is a healthy substitute for milk and it is delicious!)

Answer:

See Explanation Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lactose, the sugar found in Milk, has to be absorbed by the body or there will be issues. Those who are lactose intolerant are unable to absorb the lactose. The small intestine has to make a substance called lactase. The job of lactase is to break down lactose. People who do not create enough lactase cannot absorb lactose. Problems caused by this include pain, bloating, nausea, and more.

Hope this Helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)
