The existence of lactose could be in some of our most favorite foods: ice cream, cheese, and even the creamer we use for our coffee. But do you ever end up with an upset stomach afterward? Stomach pain, along with a few other symptoms, can be a sign that it is time for you to switch up your diary habits. Don’t let lactose intolerance stop you from living your happiest life.

There are plenty of dairy-free alternatives to the foods you enjoy daily. From milk to yogurt, even more options are becoming available every day. While there are fruits and vegetables to help account for some of the vitamins and minerals you miss out on without consuming dairy, there are also a variety of other lactose-free alternatives that still remind you of your favorites.

Lactose Left Over

Almond milk, for example, is a great alternative to regular milk. It is also used to make ice cream, another dairy favorite. If you are too accustomed to the use of milk, there are lactose alternatives that include lactase in order to make the milk digestible. Soy milk is also another milk alternative, but it may not be recommended for anyone with milk or soy allergies. Though there are other milk alternatives like goat milk, all milk originating from mammals contains lactose. They are therefore not assumed to be recommended for intolerance.

Great Lactose Alternatives

Other great milk alternatives include oat or cashew milk. The benefits of these alternatives are that they can be used to make ice cream! They also keep you in the habit of your daily cereal routine and taste great in your coffee.

Coconut milk is a popular milk alternative, and it is used to create other things. While ice cream is included in that, it is also used to make what is known as soft cheese. It is purchased like cream cheese and makes a great spread.

Too much love for ice cream? If you are looking to completely cut milk ties, try a flavored sorbet!

If you are just looking for less tummy rumble, yogurt can be a great alternative. While it still contains lactose, it also contains a host of other good bacteria that help to break down the lactose. There are still plenty of lactose-free yogurt alternatives for you to try.

Lactose No No

Looking for more natural ways to add the calcium and other vitamins missed from milk? Try leafy green vegetables like spinach and kale. You can even incorporate more pinto beans. For seafood lovers, eating sardines, tuna, or salmon can help you get the nutrition you need without the assistance of lactose.

Well, it is safe to say that there are plenty of new lactose alternatives hitting the market. If you feel you have a serious intolerance to milk and dairy products, trying a lactose alternative can be a great decision. Who knows?! Your family could have been suffering in silence all this time!
