There are GREAT drops called Lacteeze (i think that is how you spell it) and you drop them into the milk carton, let it sit for 24 hours and it kills the lactose. the milk tastes normal to me (however i'm not sure i know what milk SHOULD taste like  ) however to those who are used to milk they say it makes it taste a little sweet. they are pretty expensive but well worth it... i've just learned what i can and can't eat.. and if i eat it.. i pay for it. i've had a headache for the past two days that i'm prettty sure is milk related. i have milk in my tea every day and once every few months i'll have horrible headaches.. i think my system has just had enough, and i pay for it  good luck and PM me if i can help at all! |
If your dad has celiac you may want to consider getting tested. It is hereditary and they are just beginning to understand how frequently it passes from one generation to another. My father has it and all four of us kids (lol, can't really call us kids) have it, and the majority of my sister's and brother's children have been diagnosed with it as well. BTW, many celiacs are lactose intolerant until they are diagnosed and begin adhering to the GF diet.
Don't get me wrong, I hope that you DON'T have it. Just wanted to pass the info along.
