Meet the Lactofree Advisory Board

Every day Team Lactofree are answering or fielding your questions and queries to the right person in order to give you the best advice possible whether you’re trying to locate our products, give feedback, make requests, or seek medical advice.

To ensure that any medical or health concerns you have are addressed properly we have created a Lactofree Advisory Board, a panel of professionals with a range of experience and expertise, to offer online support to the lactose intolerant community. The Advisory Board have taken the time to complete Your Questions Answered and here to answer any further lactose intolerance questions you may have, are:

Dr John Mayberry, Consultant Physician and Professor in Gastroenterology in Leicester. His areas of speciality include intestinal disorders, especially inflammatory bowel disease and most recently, lactose intolerance.

Dr Patricia MacNair, currently working in Medicine for the Elderly at the Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford. She has worked for several years in a variety of medical specialties and for the past 18 years she has worked as a freelance medical journalist and broadcaster, writing, reporting and presenting on a huge range of medical topics.

Sian Porter, nutritionist and Registered Dietitian, focused on a holistic approach to health. She is currently acting as communications advisor to the food industry and was on the Fat Panel which recently hit the headlines revealing the shocking saturated fat content within the recipes of celebrity chefs – while Lactofree’s celebrity chef Lesley Waters was commended for her healthy cooking. You can read the Fat Panel report here.

Noel Wickes, owner of 11 pharmacies across Central Scotland. He was named as one of the top ten pharmacists in the UK by The Independent and his pharmacies have won several awards for their innovation and customer service.

We feel that the addition of the Advisory Board is a very important part of Lactofree.co.uk and we hope that you will benefit from their professional advice and support.

Hi i was hoping for some advice I was suspicious that my daughter who is under 1yrs of age was lactos intol, because i had given her some little star yogurt strawberry flavour and she had a instant reaction where by she seemed nausiated, red blotches and vomiting vigourously till all of the product she had consumed was out of her little system. This had happened numerously with other cow milk products so hence i then turned to the lacto free products but still astonished to find she encountered the same reaction as to other normal products. She is breast feed, but wanting to know does this mean if she suffers from a allergy to cows milk all together? I would appreciate your advice thank you my e-mail saiemaishaq@hotmail.com

When they thought my son had an intolerance to cow's milk - the hospital suggested I try soya products. Try speaking with your HV or your doctor may refer you to a dietician.

both my husband and daughter benefit from all your products. wondering if you have plans to make lactose free fresh cream or longlife dont mind which! I love making icecream but the regular cream really affects my husband. We have all of your products except the natural yoghurt because we have not seen it stocked in our local Asda.

Lacrofree fresh cream would be absolutely amazing! It would be wonderful to make fresh cream cakes. Please, please, please, please, please bring out cream! Just think... strawberries and cream! (Lactofree of course!) You could serve it a Wimbledon!!
