Fixing Lactose intolerance + alternatives

My dear friend gets his stomach all fucked up when he consumes cow milk. Is there any way he can milkmaxx...

@Pulastye is he drinking grass fed?
If the milk quality is basically shit where you live, than try giving him a parmigiano reggiano (the specific one) cheese, I found it helps. Also pregnenolone after drinking milk. Coffee also helps. Increasing co2 in general helps digestion, so also bag breathing.
A telltale sign that the milk you are drinking is shit is by how many lactose intolerant people are around you.

@dt it is. Pretty much straight from the udder.

@Pulastye FMT could do the trick if sourced from an individual with high lactose tolerance. I'm fairly confident we'll be able to address this with CRISPR in the not too distant future as well, although I think this may be unethical.

The earliest humans that drank milk weren’t lactose tolerant. I think mixing it with something might aid in digesting the lactose. Not sure what would that be though… Otherwise, some say raw milk is better for those who are lactose intolerant.

I've successfully reversed my lactose intolerance by slowly easing myself into drinking kefir (this was before I started peating) every day for a few weeks, up to half a liter daily. Of course, Peat advises against fermented dairy and there were probably other factors involved, so take this anecdote with some caution. Maybe a low-lactose hard cheese could help, like @dt mentioned.

@dt peat boys up..... We shall thrive....

Do Africans have lactose intolerance beacuse they have inferior gut health?

Traditionally Africans (like all groups) had good microbiome because their diets contain fewer or no processed foods. However, now that they have been sold progress, along with “democracy” and liquid oils, they are in equally poor state as Westerners. Mass poisoning with vaccines and other drugs is probably contributing to food allergies as observed in Western countries.
Milk containing vaccines cause milk allergies, EoE, autism and type 1 diabetes
Dr Peat talking about the low incidence of bowel and liver cancer in Africans
“Dennis Burkett, who sort of started the fiber fad about 30 years ago, when he discovered that Africans didn't have a very high incidence of bowel and liver cancer and that they tended to have three bowel movements per day, where Americans are more likely to have one or fewer.” Ray Peat
Lactose digestion depends on the presence of the enzyme lactase-phlorizin hydrolase; if milk is not incorporated into the diet the enzyme is not made by the body. Once milk consumption is introduced it can take weeks for the enzyme to be produced – meanwhile symptoms of lactose intolerance will be present until that time.
Not all Africans are lactose intolerance (Africa is a continent not a country)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactase_persistence
High frequencies of lactase persistence are also found in some places in Sub-Saharan Africa and in the Middle East. But the most common situation is intermediate to low lactase persistence: intermediate (11 to 32%) in Central Asia,[7] low (<=5%) in Native Americans, East Asians, most Chinese populations[2] and some African populations.[3][4][7]
In Africa, the distribution of lactase persistence is "patchy":[8][9][3] high variations of frequency are observed in neighbouring populations, for example between Beja and Nilotes from Sudan.[10] This makes the study of lactase persistence distribution more difficult.[4] High percentages of lactase persistence phenotype are found in traditionally pastoralist populations like Fulani and Bedouins.[3][11]
Lactase persistence is prevalent in Nguni and certain other pastoralist populations of South Africa as a result of the dairy they consume in their diet. Lactase persistence amongst Nguni people is, however, less common than in Northern European populations because traditionally, their consumption of dairy came primarily in the form of amasi (known as Maas in Afrikaans), which is lower in lactose than fresh, raw milk as a result of the fermentation process it goes through.[12][13][11][14][15][16][17][18][19]
