Labels require careful reading, as lactose (or milk sugars, casein, caseinate, whey or non-fat dry milk solids) may be included in a variety of foods, such as: - Chips - Breads - Sherbets - Canned/frozen fruits and vegetables - Frozen dry desserts - Puddings - Instant potatoes - Salad dressings - Prepared soups - butter (Note: Individual tolerances to these products vary.) What Products are Available? Lactose reduced milk products available in the UAE include Soya milk, and “Rice Dream”. Because milk is the major food product, that individuals who are lactose intolerant may be interested in calcium supplementation. Some of the lactose-reduced milks are calcium and vitamin enriched to allow for adequate intake of these vital nutrients.
