Abstract

THIS investigation was prompted by the clinical observation of lactose intolerance in five Asian students who were attending a gastroenterological out-patient department for vague abdominal pain associated with intermittent diarrhoea. Lactose intolerance is now a well recognized clinical entity, being more common in asymptomatic negroes1,2 and Australian aborigines3 than in Caucasians.
