Lactose intolerance is fairly common in adults. There are a variety of reasons why people get lactose intolerance. One such cause is a person’s genetics and ethnic background. People of Asian, African, Native American and Hispanic descent are more inclined to develop it at a young age. We might become lactose intolerant as we grow older as our bodies stop producing lactase enzyme.

Lactose intolerance occurs when a body is unable to break down lactose, due to the lack of enzyme in the small intestine known as lactase. This results in undigested lactose staying in the intestine, causing some uncomfortable problems such as gas, bloating, stomach cramps and diarrhea.

What about babies?
Although it is very uncommon in toddlers, there are a small percentage of babies who are unable to digest lactose. The symptoms are similar as an adult’s symptoms, such as diarrhea, abdominal cramps, or bloating after eating or drinking dairy products or breast milk. Toddlers and children also develop a temporal case of lactose intolerance when there have diarrhea. However, this usually improves after a few days or weeks.

What can my baby drink?
Since a mother’s milk contains lactose, babies who are lactose intolerant may not be able consume breast milk or cow’s milk. An alternative is to purchase a special lactose-free formula made from plant-based milk such as soy, rice, almond or oat. Alternatively, mothers may consider trying goat’s milk, which contains slightly lower levels of lactose compared to cow’s milk. One such brand is Karihome’s goat milk, which is derived from pasture feeding goats in New Zealand, and suitable for children who have colic, mild lactose intolerance, or allergic to cow’s milk.

What can my baby eat?
Most baby foods are lactose free, but do check the food label for words such as ‘cream’, ‘milk’ and ‘yoghurt’ just to be extra careful. You may also want to start introducing food to your baby once he turns one. Some lactose-free foods you can introduce to him are fruits, vegetables, noodles, tofu, eggs, or plain rice crackers.

Lactose intolerance is generally not a lifelong condition, and can be manageable to tune to your baby’s body. The trick is to introduce dairy products slowly and gradually, with other lactose-free food. Keeping a food journal will be helpful in remembering and learning what food your baby is less tolerant of.

Remember to always consult and discuss with your pediatrician or dietician before introducing dairy products in your toddler’s diet. After introducing some dairy product to your baby’s diet, monitor your baby carefully to see if there are any recurring symptoms. If there are, immediately put your baby back on a lactose-free diet till your doctor says it’s safe to try again.
