For those who are lactose intolerant, low-lactose or lactose-free milk products have also appeared on the market, and these products have gradually been recognized by consumers in China.

In summary, although Chinese people are generally lactose intolerant, the promotion and popularization of milk as an important nutritional drink is still of great significance.
