Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 It is because the body is made to take nutrients at a certain rate. Normally the body is breaking down the lactose (by producing the enzyme lactase) into glucose and galactose molecules as it encounters it. It is done in a slow process. When taking lactose hydrolyzed milk, you are ingesting all the glucose and galactose already in it's broken down form, all at once, and the body is stressed to accomodate it, if it can at all. Just like a bone is designed to take stress in a certain way, but when it takes it in a way it isn't designed to take, it breaks. I knew of an orthopedic doctor who went walking into the surf on the beach. The wave hit her femur just right and it snapped. I wouldn't have believed that story except the doctor in question shared an office with the doctor who treated my former boyfriend for a vertical break in his leg.AmeliaHusband UC 9 years, SCD 19 monthsLDN 3 mgTo: BTVC-SCD Sent: Mon, February 8, 2010 5:17:08 PMSubject: Re: Lactaid or Lactose free milk to yogurt "The rate of flow of galactose to the liver when one drinks lactose hydrolyzed milk is high.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 PJ,Just a thought, but as it is mixed into a whole, fermented food might allow it to be assimilated better. However, based on postings on this site, some people find it still too much and must drip in order to digest/assimilate the yogurt. As mentioned before, the lactaid milk is advanced and can be used in small amounts after significant healing -- like a small amount in tea for example. I think what is to be avoided is a large (think 8 oz or more) glass being gulped down with a meal or as a refreshment.Amelia.To: BTVC-SCD Sent: Mon, February 8, 2010 10:36:50 PMSubject: Re: Lactaid or Lactose free milk to yogurt Isn't there galactose in SCD yogurt? I know dripping it helps but it obviously is OK not to drip it too. How does one avoid too much ?
