Filter by:The investigators will recruit 45 fluid milk avoiding adults to participate in a five-week double-blind, double-crossover study in which the physiological responses to increasing doses of lactose-free (A1-rich milk), A2 milk, and lactose-free A2 milk will be explored.
Persons with dairy intolerance may experience cramps/abdominal pain, bloating, flatulence, acute diarrhea, or fecal urgency when they ingest excessive amounts of lactose. The intensity of these conditions can be mild or severe and likely depends on numerous variables including dose, transit time, intestinal residual lactase activity and microbiome potential to ferment lactose. Jersey cattle produce milk containing high levels of the A2 β-casein protein . There are claims that high A2 β-casein milk is more easily digested by people who are lactose maldigesters . We propose to conduct a double-blinded, randomized, controlled trial to determine if high A2 β-casein milk from Jersey cattle is actually better digested and tolerated by lactose maldigesters.
