Do y'all not know about enzyme pills for lactose intolerance?

[-] Stamets@startrek.website 23 points 10 months ago

Honestly? I can't afford to spend $30 so I spent 30 minutes on toilet.

We buy boxes of the generic tablets from Costco, they're $20 for 180 tablets, or 11¢/ea.

Do your friends and family a favor and buy some, they have to smell you all day after dairy.

I don't have access to a Costco and I don't have family or friends. I'm also nosedeaf to myself. Doesn't make much difference.

You do know lactose blocks tryptophan absorption, thus leaving your body without serotonin precursors right?

[-] Ingiald@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago

30 bucks a pop? Wow

[-] prayer@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Closer to $30 for 80 doses. And that's your name-brand stuff.

In America. I am not American. A bottle of 30 Lactaid here is around $27.

[-] prayer@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Here's the most expensive version of lactaid I could find on Amazon. $0.30 a dose

Where I live? Yeah. It's a problem

[-] Pandemanium@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago

Unfortunately those don't work for everyone.

Yeah I'm pretty sure my lactose intolerance is just my mild whey allergy in disguise so unfortunately that's the boat I fall in. People ask fewer questions about lactose intolerance though so that's what I'll continue to tell people.

Bummer

We do, but why pay for a colonic irrigation cleaning when you get a free one after having icecream for dessert.

Have fun

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
