Laktoseintoleranz und ein Blick “über den Großen Teich” führt einen z.B. zu den Amerikanischen Hispanos / Mexikaner, die unter der westlichen Ernährung ähnlich zu leiden haben wie die Afro-Amerikaner.
Let's start with lactose intolerance, the body's inability to break down the milk sugar lactose. Studies in the 1960s revealed that lactose intolerance—which can bring on diarrhea, abdominal cramping, bloating, nausea, and vomiting—affects most adults in all racial groups other than whites. The two to three servings of dairy items still suggested in the Guidelines can bring on bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Lactose intolerance affects more than 50 percent of Mexican Americans, as documented in studies published in the early 1970s in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. It also affects more than 90 percent of Asian Americans, more than 70 percent of Native Americans and African Africans, and many people of Jewish, Arabic, Greek, and Italian heritage.
