Good News! Ice Cream Is Back On The Menu!

BEANO® +DAIRY DEFENSE™ sponsored this post and helped me put dairy back on the menu! Today was a day of celebration for many reasons. First of all, and most important, Ayva started kindergarten! Yes, my baby girl is growing up! Day one went off without a hitch, and she can’t wait to go back next week. Second, and yes, this is a big deal, too, I ate ice cream in the middle of the day without any crazy stomach issues! That’s right, y’all, this lactose intolerant Mama has put dairy BACK on the menu! I’ve been using BEANO® +DAIRY DEFENSE™ for the last couple of months, and today it passed the ultimate test, a celebratory ice cream cone! BEANO® +DAIRY DEFENSE™ is the over the counter digestion aid that eliminates the usual discomfort that comes when lactose intolerant folks eat anything delicious  foods containing dairy. I’ve tried BEANO® +DAIRY DEFENSE™ before eating macaroni & cheese, pizza, and ice cream, and it has worked! All I did was take the tiny Raspberry Sorbet flavored tablet right before I ate, and I was able to eat to my heart’s (and stomach’s) delight!

 Here’s a little more about how BEANO® +DAIRY DEFENSE™ works:

Each Beano® +Dairy Defense™ tablet contains two natural food enzymes that break down complex carbohydrates and lactose found in dairy products which can cause bloating, discomfort and diarrhea. Take just one tasty, chewable, raspberry sorbet-flavored tablet before your meal so that foods will be easier to digest—giving you much needed relief from these uncomfortable symptoms.

The official Beano® +Dairy Defense™ Back On The Menu Challenge is done.  Since it worked so well for me, though, I’m really looking forward to the fall and winter which means rich hot cocoa with whipped cream, more macaroni & cheese, and any other decadent dairy laden dessert. Bring it on, Dairy! I’ve got something for you!

Are you lactose intolerant? How do you manage your diet over the holidays when everything seems to include dairy? Do you indulge and deal with the stomach problems, or do you just say no? Have you ever tried BEANO® +DAIRY DEFENSE™?
