Not lactose intolerance but a little over 10 years ago I started getting cramps, gas, followed by a dash to the bathroom after eating certain foods. I was finally diagnosed with IBS. I learned my trigger foods were eggs, garlic, and spicy foods. IBS medication isnāt the best for you long term so I started taking peppermint pills which has helped quite a bit.
I love eggs but I rarely eat them. Sometimes I keep them but more times than not I only borrow them for an hour or so. š
Garlic in moderation is no big deal.
Spicy foods 9.9 times out of 10 are no big deal anymore.
I do find it strange that after 20-30 years of eating these foods you develop issues with them or develop things like IBS or lactose intolerance, but the human body is a very complex machine.
