B. 1 and 3 only

View Answer

Answer: D
Statement 1 is correct:
Milk has been a part of the human diet for thousands of years. But a lot of people end up feeling uneasy, bloated or excessively gassy after consuming milk. If one experiences such symptoms, they are most likely to be lactose intolerant. It is simply the body’s inability to absorb milk lactose or a milk allergy.
Lactose intolerance is the inability of a person to digest lactose, the principal sugar in milk, that gives rise to gastrointestinal symptoms.
Statement 2 is correct: Lactose intolerance is caused by a deficiency of the intestinal enzyme lactase that acts on lactose to convert it into glucose and galactose which are then absorbed from the intestine. Primary symptoms of lactose intolerance are diarrhoea, flatulence (passing gas), and abdominal pain. Abdominal bloating, abdominal distension and nausea may also occur. Lactose intolerance is treated with dietary changes,
Statement 3 is correct: Studies on the global prevalence of this mutation suggest that 65% of humanity is lactose-intolerant, meaning they lack the gene to break down lactose into adulthood. Beyond the age of five, lactose, a sugar present in milk, cannot be naturally broken down in the stomach and this remains in the gut causing flatulence, acidity, and diarrhoea
