Hello,

I feel embaressed that I'm always asking questions, so I hope I don't offend anyone. I also hope that this is the correct place to ask.

I've a love of the MILO drink, which I think is the root of my problem. Recently, I noticed that each time after drinking it, I let off plenty of gas (smelly ones) before resulting in BM. Then, the gas stops.

Does anyone know why this is so? I did hate to have to give up my favourite drink. Here's how I prepare it (if it helps in diagnosis):

2 heaped tablespoons of MILO, pour in some boiled water, followed by cold milk.

Thank you to all for help.

It actually sounds like it could be lactose intolerance from the milk in this drink. Is there any other way that you can make it where you do not have to use the milk and you may notice a difference? If not, then you could purchase some Lactaid tablets that will help you to break down the proteins in the milk itself.

Other than that, you could also try using Goat's milk or Soya milk and seeing if this change helps>

Hope this helps and good luck?

You could also consider trying lactose free milk to see if this helps. It might also help to what all the ingredients are in this to see if there is something in the mix that might also be part of the problem.
