Many adults are allergic to milk products - your body naturally loses its ability to process milk as it ages. Many diets cut down your milk intake at the start to test for this.

Even if you've done a milk allergy test before, it might be good to try it again. Bodies change over time! Cut out dairy products for 2 weeks straight. See how you feel. You might notice a drop in bloating and other allergic reactions which you never had really noticed before!

Note that milk is a natural substance and you should always check the label of the milk you are buying, to see what the carb count in your milk is. There are easily variations from brand to brand.

In general, the heavier the cream or milk, the better (lower) the carb count.

People who have issues with milk can be lactose intolerant. Their bodies cannot process the lactose (natural milk sugars) found in milk. They can also be allergic to milk, which is a separate body reaction.
