Lactose intolerance is often due to the homogenization process. This process destroys the protein that enables the digestion of milk. Many find they can tolerate raw milk, but not store bought.

Additionally, there are certain proteins labeled A2/A2 that make milk digestible. These are found mainly in the older breeds and less in the mass production breeds (Holstein).

Can you tell I went down a raw milk rabbit hole? 🙃
