Greetings,
Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday. We have
three similar questions from our readers this week
regarding lactose intolerance and weight loss. This
will be the topic of this week's eNewsletter. As
you may have read, there have been a number of recent
studies which correlate the ingestion of dairy products
(calcium) with the reduction of weight. What if
a person is lactose intolerant?

The inability to process lactose or
milk sugars affects some 20-22% of the American
population. Those who are lactose intolerant can
certainly get the proper amount of calcium from
other sources that are not based in dairy, specifically
fortified orange juice, green leafy vegetables,
fish particularly salmon and soy based products
such as tofu and edamame. For individuals who are
lactose intolerant and erase milk, yogurt and cheese
products from your diet, here are various ways that
you can benefit from dairy products:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Quick
Tip: As you probably know, cold-pressed extra virgin
olive oil is an outstanding substance to ingest
from a health perspective (and taste perspective).
However, if the oil is 1 year old or more, most
of the antioxidant potency is lost.It is best to
beek olive oil in a dark, cool cupboard and use
within a 12 month period at most.
-------------------------------------------------------------
1- Small volume. Most lactose intolerant
individuals can deal with a 1/4 cup of milk per
sitting. This is due to the fact that they do not
completely lack the enzyme needed to break down
the lactose (knonwn as lactase) but rather lack
the proper amount. As such, drinking small volume
(3-4oz.) can provide some benefits.
2- Select wisely. Opt for low lactose
dairy products such as hard cheeses and ricotta
cheese.
3- Look for Active Culture. Both yogurt
and its "cousin" kefir are fermented dairy products
tha contain active bacteria cultures. These friendly
bacteria cultures help to digest tthe lactose, making
these products better tolerated than milk.
4- Alternatives. Substances such as
lactose-free milk, soy milk and rice milk are very
health alternatives for most individuals. One can
also add liquid enzymes to regular milk to assist
digestion. Dairy in smaller amounts can be a healthy
plus to most people's diet. They provide calcium
in a form that supplementation cannot.
Until next week. . . .
To your health,
Dr. David Orman
