Symptom 7. Fatigue and Irritability
Fatigue and irritability are common symptoms experienced by individuals with dairy allergies or milk intolerance. These symptoms may be a result of the body’s immune response to milk proteins or the inability to properly digest lactose, leading to malabsorption of essential nutrients and overall discomfort.
Individuals with dairy allergies or milk intolerance may find that they feel constantly tired or have difficulty concentrating, even after a full night’s sleep. Irritability can also manifest as mood swings, feelings of frustration, and a decreased ability to cope with stress.
To manage fatigue and irritability related to dairy allergies or milk intolerance, it is crucial to avoid dairy products and seek guidance from a healthcare professional. A balanced diet, adequate sleep, and stress management techniques can also help alleviate these symptoms. (6)
