Answer #6

Lactose is a natural sugar found in dairy. If you’re lactose intolerant, it means you dont have enough lactase, which is an enzyme that breaks down lactase, if you dont have enough lactase to break down the lactose you’ll either start throwing up, or not be able to leave the toilet. :D Have fun with that mental image, let me know how you sleep tonight. ;)
