Mum occasionally buys Lactofree.
As above - milk with lactose removed.

Quote:
Our dairy drink is made from regular cows’ milk which is filtered to remove half the lactose, the sugars naturally found in milk. An enzyme is then added to the milk to break down the remaining milk sugars which your body can easily absorb. As nothing else is added or removed, what you get is the nutritional benefits and great taste of regular milk just without the lactose.

You can buy our dairy drink in fresh and long life varieties, either semi-skimmed or whole.
But recently she's been just buying what I always used to drink - Cravendale filtered. It lasts a lot longer than normal milk.
The bottom line is the only time she has milk is on her one bowl of cereal in the morning, so all the self-diagnosis emails helpfully forwarded by her friends were not really appropriate. As I told her at the time.

Ditto gluten, ditto underarm anti-perspirant etc etc. When cutting out one thing doesn't get the results she wants, she goes back to it after a while and sees no difference. That's because there was no problem in the first place, save over-indulging. And I know plenty about that.

I'm not suggesting you aren't really intolerant Pete, I'm sure you are.
Sorry I can't help with any American products.
