Can kids outgrow lactose intolerance?

i heard that 80% outgrow their childhood milk allergies. can kids outgrow lactose intolerance to?

teen also. can teens outgrow it?

yes they can i am an example of that

yes, most childhood intolerances will pass.
adult onset intolerances only get worse.

No, because lactose intolerance is caused by the lack of a chemical in the digestive tract which processes the milk sugar lactose. In fact, the older one gets, the more likely you are to become lactose intolerant, since the body produces less of the enzyme as you age. Milk allergies are something else. There I would go with your doctor's advice.

As I understand (from a friend who developed lactose intolerance), it is mostly reversable.

It can be brought about by consuming too much dairy products and if you lay off it for a few years, your body should right itself again.

Bottom line. Believe what your doctor tells you.
