What to know about cream
Cream is where the dairy triggers that butter mostly sheds come straight back. Because it is liquid dairy rather than pure fat, cream carries a real load of lactose along with the milk proteins casein and whey. If milk gives you bloating, cramps or congestion, cream usually does the same, and a splash in coffee or a rich sauce is an easy source to overlook.
Watch for
- High in lactose (grade E), a common cause of bloating, cramping and loose stools if you lack lactase
- Contains casein and whey, the milk proteins behind dairy sensitivity and congestion
- Easy to miss in coffee, sauces, soups and desserts, so small amounts stack up across a day
