One thing that helps me is taking a small cup of Dannon Activia yogurt each morning, controls the upset stomach and any bloating. Gee, when I was a little girl, I would drink 2-3 glasses of whole milk, eat cheese, and others things with no problem! It wasn't until I went away to college that I started noticing problems. It's a good thing, though, that I like that yogurt!
