Lactose intolerance debate on adult calcium needs and milk intake
A nutritionist argues that adult lactose intolerance is widespread and worsens with age. He cites Johns Hopkins research, notes calcium needs of 800 to 1000 mg daily, and counters studies claiming children’s intolerance apply to adults. He urges dairy industry action and wider Lact-Aid availability.
