If you poke around on the site, there's probably lots more of interest. I'd love to see students come out of school already knowing how lactose digestion works.
And I can't help mentioning an old favorite here, from San Francisco's marvelous Exploratorium. Milk Makes Me Sick: Exploration of the Basis of Lactose Intolerance.
The latest news on avoiding dairy products if you are lactose intolerant, have milk allergies, are a vegan, or want to keep kosher.
