I need my cheese and my yogurt. Thankfully, I can digest them. Ha ha, I win the evolution game.
Plenty of cheese are lactose-free. It is destroyed during the fermentation.
I was about to say you're full of malarky, but then I looked it up - and you're right, aged cheeses are extremely low in lactose. Some as low as 1 mg per 100 g. Too bad I also have alpha gal allergy at the moment and it's thought that mammal products that don't cause anaphylaxis still have enough of the alpha gal sugar cause an inflammatory response/unstable arterial plaques that greatly increases stroke risk.
I'm sorry for you. I didn't mean that you could it when you have allergy of course. But I know someone with a form of lactose intolerance for which the doctor authorised cheese in an otherwise strict diet.
