I've tried the roasted soy beans, soy yogurt, soy milk and soy cookies and have always had bad reactions to them, not to mention the soy milk/yogurt taste awful. People should be careful with soy products because they might not be ment for everyone.

You have to take it slow when introducing soy substitutes as any change can be hard on your tummy and soy is quite different to "normal" foods. Just try drinking a little soy milk at first and then work up. You do also have to check the fat content on some soy products, especially stuff like cookies.

Wow, that's weird. I was lactose intolerant before my IBS worsened and took Lactaid pills all the time without getting sick. I still take them occassionally when I'm going to cheat (which is not very often because I'm not usually willing to take the risk!) and they work fine. How weird that they worked fine for you sometimes but not others. I'm not sure what to tell you!
As for the Lactaid milk, I'd beware! I used to be able to drink it without a problem and then one day it just started making me as sick as regular milk! I guess Heather's right... milk in any form doesn't mesh well with IBS.

Luckily, Since I was a child I've always hated foods like milk, sour cream, cottage cheese, mayo.. i'm just not a creamy kinda girl. The only thing that is so hard to give up is cheese, which is the reason why I was taking the lactiad pills in the first place. I hate most dairy, but cheese is my weakness!
