Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The condition is caused by the loss or reduction of lactase, the intestinal enzyme that digests the lactose in milk products. Most aged cheeses are well tolerated because they contain little lactose. Yogurts that contain live bacterial cultures are often acceptable because the bacteria contain lactase, which may aid in lactose digestion. Other options are to add a lactase preparation to milk or to take enzyme tablets before consuming milk products. Lactose-free milk is also commercially available.

Answer to Question 3

D
