Some years ago, after some initial alarm and long-term experimentation, I discovered that I'd somehow suddenly become lactose-intolerant in my 30s. I went through all the different non-dairy alternatives - for taste I generally preferred soy milk, oat is ok but I found I had to use a lot of it to sufficiently lighten tea/coffee to my taste - but in the end I just started buying lactose-free cow milk. I understand it's basically the same as 'normal' milk, but at some point in the process they add an enzyme that digests all the lactose.

It wouldn't work for your particular issue I guess Doug (unless it's actually the lactose in the milk that's causing the problem), but it's nice there's a variety of alternatives nowadays.

Cows milks health benefits to humans has been one of the most insidious and sucsessful misinformation campaigns ever. Oatly is fab!
