Lactose intolerance in adults in Senegal.

J Arnold, M Diop, M Kodjovi, J Rozier.   

Abstract

The isolated malabsorption of the lactose in the adult is an hereditary feature while is not found often in the white people but is spread out in black Africa. In Senegal, a ratio of about 29% is verified, changing according to the ethnic composition. Only the Peuhls, of semitic origin, show a full tolerance to lactose.
