As a future oral-healthcare professional, what are some suggestions that can be made to a patient with lactose intolerance?
What will be an ideal response?
Try to incorporate small amounts of milk in soups, beverages, and casseroles to improve lactose tolerance; fermented dairy products such as yogurt and cottage cheese are often tolerated in lactase deficiency; hard aged cheese is often tolerated better than soft cheese; use lactose-free or soy/almond/rice milk, be sure to eat non-dairy sources of calcium like dark green vegetables, legumes, and shellfish; talk to your doctor or registered dietitian about the need to take a calcium supplement.
