Is a Lactase Deficiency the Cause of your Indigestion Symptom?
I-Can-Drink-Milk-Again - Brochure Four
Hi , Welcome to the fourth of my email brochures about ::
" A Lactose Intolerance Solution " ::
Getting
rid of Lactose Intolerance with Lactagen: Information, Tips,
Recipes and Reasons.
An Indigestion Symptom is a rather general term most often used to describe unpleasant feelings in the upper abdomen. Indigestion is not a disease, but rather a collection of symptoms like nausea, bloating, burping etc. There can be many causes of what people describe as an "Indigestion Symptom". The most common of these causes are simply eating too much, eating too fast, over eating of spicy or fatty foods and sometimes stress and/or alcohol consumption.
Many of the Indigestion Symptoms described by people are the same as the Indigestion Symptoms for Lactose Intolerance. Given the commonness of lactose intolerance among the population, it is not too far fetched to wonder if your indigestion symptom is actually lactose intolerance.
The Function of the Digestive System can become compromised over time.
The Function of the Digestive System is to process food, extract nutrients, and expel waste with a minimum of discomfort to ourselves. Ideally, the whole process should not be at all uncomfortable. It's not the function of the digestive system (when working properly) to produce excessive gas, bloating, pain and diarrhea. But, many people find that over time, the function of the digestive system deteriorates, and they are no longer able to enjoy the freedom to eat their favorite foods without suffering from an indigestion symptom.
If you're suffering with an indigestion symptom, it's quite possible that a deficiency of an important digestive enzyme called lactase is the source of the problem, and this has compromised the function of the digestive system and it's ability to properly process the sugar in milk. (Lactose) An easy way to find out if this is the problem, would be to take a few lactase enzyme supplements before breakfast, (you can try this anytime you haven't eaten for about 8 hours beforehand) and then drink a 12 oz glass of milk with breakfast. If you feel no indigestion symptom afterwards, and the function of your digestive system is just fine, and if this is not the case when you don't take the lactase enzyme supplements before drinking the 12 oz glass of milk with your next breakfast, you have likely determined that Lactose Intolerance is the source of your indigestion symptom. (Note - This test is not for people who suspect a dairy allergy, and obviously, if you experience any extreme and unusual discomfort, consult a doctor immediately)
A Fact About the Digestive System, is that it can be damaged. But, it's also a fact, that often, the Digestive System can also be repaired.
It's a Fact About the Digestive System that it's often quite hard to pinpoint the source of your indigestion symptom if it's not very severe and if it's produced by a lactase deficiency. Even if you cut out the obvious milk products from your diet, there are so many products that contain lactose, that you may still suffer and not know why. You'll understand this if you carefully read the ingredients in the fine print of anything you put in your mouth. An enormous variety of edible products often contain dairy, and this means a high likely hood of containing lactose. Unfortunately, many times, the only indication of a presence of lactose is the "may contain dairy ingredients" or "milk ingredients" on the ingredient label, as lactose is seldom identified on its own. Another Fact About the Digestive System, is that it might only be possible to identify exactly what's troubling your tummy by carrying out extensive exclusionary diet tests.
I bring all of this up, because, when I first started having indigestion symptoms, (about sixteen years ago) for a long time after I had cut out obvious dairy products, I was still having indigestion symptoms. I couldn't figure out what the problem was. I could have saved myself a lot of aggravation if I knew just how prevalent lactose is in the processed foods in our modern diet.
In my case, before I went on the program, It was shocking to discover that even 99.9% lactose free milk still bothered my stomach. So, make sure that you choose dairy products that are 100% lactose free. It's also quite startling to discover that Lactose is used in many, many products.
People with very low tolerance for lactose should know that all kinds of food products such as bread and baked goods, processed breakfast cereals, instant potatoes, soups, margarine, lunch meats, (other than kosher) salad dressings, candies and many other snacks very often contain lactose and can produce a lactose intolerance indigestion symptom.
Believe it or not, even prescription and over-the-counter drugs (including birth control pills and various supplements) often contain lactose, which is often difficult to identify because of an obscured label or a label that says "non-dairy" and yet may still contain some lactose. If you're extremely sensitive to lactose, be careful, and if necessary, call the manufacturer and ask.
A fact about the digestive system:
| · Your intestines are at least 25 feet long if you're an adult. |
| · Swallowing food takes about 10 seconds. |
| · It takes about 3 hours for food to move through the intestine |
| · Contents in the large intestine can stay there18 hours to 2 days or longer. |
| · In your lifetime, your digestive system could process about 50 tons. |
It's hard to imagine now that I'm free of lactose intolerance just how much I was a slave to this affliction. So much stress has been removed from my life. I truly feel as if I've been reborn. I wish this magical transformation for everyone who suffers with an inability to digest dairy.
The "Solution to Lactose Intolerance" Program begins by Calming and Soothing the Function of the Digestive System. This process takes 18 days. Next, the function of the digestive system is strengthened and reconditioned. This process takes another16 days. Finally, one begins to incorporate dairy products back into one's diet and you can literally forget that you ever had a problem with dairy. It's so amazing! I did not believe this to be possible 1 year ago.
It's a fact about the digestive system, that baring other problems or factors, if your body produces enough of the lactase enzyme, you can enjoy dairy without issues. That's exactly what this program will do for you.

If you qualify, (i.e. You've made sure that you are indeed suffering from Lactose Intolerance, and not Crohn's disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or a milk allergy etc.) I sure hope that you've gone ahead and invested in the program for yourself. If you're still hesitant, I urge you to thoroughly go through the web site again, especially the testimonials section. Also, do a search on the program through Goggle, Yahoo or MSN, to see just how many satisfied customers there are. The cost is really insignificant when measured against the years of freedom from lactose intolerance to come.
I cannot over emphasize just how much this program has boosted the quality of my life. I would love for you to experience the same joy and liberation!
Now we get to my favorite part, the recipes. I simply love to cook, and one of the many sad things about being lactose intolerant for me, was the damper it put on my cooking and baking hobby. In spite of this, over the years I accumulated some terrific lactose-free recipes, which I'd like to share with you. I hope these come in handy during the Lactagen program when you'll be avoiding all milk products.
I'm going to include quite a variety over the next several brochures,
and I'll include some dishes that keep well in the refrigerator.
This is helpful if you have a busy life and don't mind having
the same thing more than once a week.
Here is one of my all time favorites, and I enjoy it often, even
though lactose intolerance is no longer a problem for me:

1/2 cup white wine
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/8 cup canola oil
1/8 cup olive oil( preferably lighter tasting)

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
METHOD:
1. Stir together white wine, lemon juice, canola oil, olive oil, garlic powder, onion
powder, salt and pepper.
2. Take 4 pieces of foil large enough to wrap each piece of
the fish in and place them with their edges turned up in a roasting
pan. Place each piece of fish in the center of each of these
pieces and pour the wine and lemon juice mixture over and around
the fish making sure that each piece is thoroughly coated.
Wrap the foil around the fish pieces and seal to make 4 packages.

fish flakes easily.
This dish is outstanding and you will be amazed at how something so
simple can be so good.
You can also use sea bass, orange roughly or any other white fish you like. Just
remember that with thinner fish like sole, baking time has to be reduced
according to the thinness.
