I have lactose intolerance, and heartburn, altho felt occassionally, doesn't seem to be a symptom in my case. It could vary from person to person though, but I do know from experience that a severe case of lactose intolerance will cause a lot of acid reflux, which in turn would surely lead to heartburn. Do consult your doctor to be sure!

I'm not a doctor!

I've never heard of this. Lactose intolerance usually happens lower in the GI tract. So it usually involves gas and that end of the body.

Hope that helps!

Good Luck!

I am a long-time sufferer of Lactose Intolerance. Thankfully, heartburn was never one of the symptoms I suffered. While the other symptoms from LI could contribute to conditions that would result in acid-reflux, I doubt it's a primary symptom.
