Yes! Try these tips:
- Have small amounts of milk throughout the day instead of a whole glass at one time (60–125 mL or 1/4–1/2 cup).
- Try chocolate or other flavoured milk. They are digested more slowly by your body.
- Drink milk with meals or snacks, not by itself.
- Drink lactose-free milks such as Lactaid™, Lacteeze™. You'll find these milks in the dairy case at grocery stores.
- Ask a pharmacist for lactase tablets or drops such as Lactaid™, Lacteeze™ or a generic brand. They work to break down the lactose in milk for you. Be sure to follow package directions when using these products.
- Try yogurt.
- Try mozzarella and aged cheeses like cheddar, swiss, blue, brie, etc. They contain almost no lactose.
