BeardedItalian48 3 Posted September 22, 2009 Just a note on this.... I BEFORE surgery loved pepper jack cheese, provalone, and most other cheeses. Since surgery, I cannot seem to tolerate any now. I am hoping I will reaquire my taste for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cajun 46 Posted September 23, 2009 TMI...the only good thing I found about lactose intolerance was it was really easy to resolve a bout of constiptation! Chug a glass of milk or some ice cream! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malaika 50 Posted September 23, 2009 TMI...the only good thing I found about lactose intolerance was it was really easy to resolve a bout of constiptation! Chug a glass of milk or some ice cream! Not for me - Ice cream won't even stay down for more than 10 minutes ... and the intestinal pains I get from milk are enough to think you need to go to the ER. I'll stick with magnesium, prunes, prune juice, pear juice or a small salad thanks!:biggrin0: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joon 2 Posted November 11, 2009 Hi Folks, I already dont do dairy and was actually wondering if people had any non-dairy Protein shake recommendations. I know about the fruit Isopure which hopefully I will like, but I was also hoping for a chocolate or vanilla option or some other thicker flavored thing for those times when you really need something a bit toothsome. The comments about hot food scare me though! Yikes, I LOVE my spicy food! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiffykins 673 Posted November 11, 2009 The comments about hot food scare me though! Yikes, I LOVE my spicy food! I eat spicy food all of the time with zero negative effects. I have only had what I call "breakthrough" heartburn a couple of times, and it was after eating mustard with some pretzels. The mustard wasn't spicy, but it's the only thing recently that I can't tolerate. I can eat jalepenos, hot sauce, and spicy/cajun flavored foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was having second thoughts there for a second! ( not really, but I am relieved :001_tongue: ) Being Indian, if I couldnt eat spicy food, there would be a biiiig problem.
