Did you know that 2/3 of humans and all nonhuman mammals lose the ability to digest milk after weaning from mothers' milk?  This is primarily genetic, but recent studies have suggested that altering the microbiome can improve symptoms of lactose intolerance. Check out this report from CNN.

I prob fall into that 67%, but there’s no way I’m giving up ice cream.

I’d be interested to hear some of the pHD-types comment on this...might there be real-world therapeutic implications here?

So...I eat yogurt every day as a probiotic. Does it have lactose?
