However, unlike your peers who drink dairy from cows to survive, you don’t have the rs4988235-A gene mutation for lactose tolerance. You can’t digest milk. You are about to experience natural selection.

      If you are wondering how lactose-free goat’s milk stacks up against regular cow milk, it has a bit less lactose. As stated, the former typically contains around 4.1 grams of lactose per 100 grams, while cow milk contains 4.7-5 grams per 100 grams

      Sheep’s milk or buttermilk from cow’s milk is about the same lactose contents as goat’s milk. Less than 20% reduction.

      Lactose intolerance is actually a matter of scale, some people can drink lactose-low milks like goat milk when they can’t handle cow milk.

      Not that the comment seems aware about that.
