Part of the reason why they are not getting enough calcium is their bodies’ negative reaction to milk or any other lactose-containing food substances. This condition is known as lactose intolerance.

It is estimated that 95 percent of Asians suffer from this condition. Ironically, most healthcare providers view it as a normal condition and don’t view it as a disease despite its possible effect on health.

A new study by doctors and colleagues from Finland, explores a possible explanation for this trend: colorectal cancer chemotherapy may cause temporary lactose intolerance, resulting in symptoms like diarrhea and flatulence. This finding is significant because it will lead to greater understanding of the effects of the gastroenterological mucosal injury associated with chemotherapy and radiation.

In the middle and late years, a shortage of calcium may lead to thin, fragile bones that break easily, a condition called osteoporosis. A concern, for both children and adults with lactose intolerance, is getting enough calcium in a diet that includes little or no milk.

It’s one of those foods that can make appearances at every meal of the day and can even sneak its way into mid-morning and afternoon snacks. Whether it’s melted over scrambled eggs, piled atop a burger or layered into a lasagana, cheese seems to be everywhere in the American diet. In fact, the average American consumes nearly 31 pounds of cheese each year according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, placing the United States in the top 10 of cheese-consuming countries.
