研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this small, short pilot study is to determine the feasibility (e.g., recruitment, dose acceptance, retention) of a future longer trial comparing the effects of different types of milk (raw milk, cow's milk, nondairy-milk) on lactose maldigestion.
详细描述
The goal is to determine if raw milk consumption intake will benefit humans with lactose maldigestion, a common human response to the intake of dairy products during adult years. An increasing number of people are consuming raw unpasteurized milk. Enhanced nutritional qualities, taste, and health benefits have all been advocated as reasons for increased interest in raw milk consumption.
However, science-based data to substantiate these claims are limited or anecdotal.
Raw milk may differ in its ability to improve lactose maldigestion related symptoms from other milk types. Adult lactose maldigestion affects the majority of the world adult population. It appears that consumption of lactose containing foods by those who cannot digest lactose is a relatively common cause of irritable bowel syndrome.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Hydrogen (H2) production from day 1 at day 8
时间窗: Day 1 and day 8 of each milk phase
Calculated as the H2 AUC above baseline at day 8 minus the H2 AUC above baseline at day 1 of each milk phase
次要结局
- Severity of symptoms of lactose intolerance for each milk phase(Day 7 of each milk phase)
