I don't think I need a whole lot to help, but I am lactose intolerant only. <:/ And might be getting increasingly sensitive to processed foods. I need an enzyme pill for whenever I know I am gonna be eating cheese or cream or butter <:[ since my body can't produce lactase very well on it's own, inhibiting my digestive tract from processing any whole or processed dairy without issue.

I found that most things containing dairy have been hazardous for my consumption.
;-; Which is a shame because it means I can't indulge in pizza like I used to in my high school years, when I was a pizza freak. <x'{
I can have cheese, but maybe only once a month. <:/ I typically get bloaty and break out, but also have a hard time with my intestines if I eat too much dairy.

So I did cut out dairy, almost entirely and it seemed to really clear up my skin, and I haven't had stomach issues for a while now. Which is great!
:}

I also cut out most all fast food from my diet, as I found it's the biggest culprit of my digestive woes. >:/ No Del Taco, no Wendy's, no Jack in the Box! Nothin'! Maybe In N Out. >.>; But only once in a blue moon...because I like their fries.

Sugar tho is hard for me to stay away from since it's so addicting. 8{ I'm not even a sweet-tooth, and I can't eat any candy since just an ounce will jack me up something awful! But just some ice cream here, a little cookie there, maybe a muffin or two, is so hard to resist! <X'{
To get around this, I satisfy my sweet cravings with actual whole fruit, and if I must have baked treats, they gotta have nuts or berries, and it has to be only a bite-sized amount. I'm lucky I'm so picky with sweets, since chocolate and caramel are both revolting to me, but I do love me some childhood breakfast cereal. <B/ I'm a sucker for cereal.

Though for like gas pain trouble and tummy torture, I have ginger tea, emergency gas/bloating relief tablets, leg and back yoga stretches and exercises, bananas, and a functioning regurgitation response. ^~^; Which is a last resort, but I'm glad it's helped me at least once when I learned I had some bad pesto.
