“What about lactose-intolerant babies?”

To their own mother’s milk? And lactose intolerance is mostly the result of pasteurization - kills all the enzymes, including lactase, which enables our bodies to digest lactose. Goat’s milk, not pasteurized, is also usually tolerated.

Avoid the crap they pawn off as substitutes for babies. All generally bad, especially the soy based products.

I’ve known of several babies that can’t tolerate their own mothers milk.

That's nonsense. Your body produces all the enzymes it requires and pasteurized milk does not kill the lactase in your gut. Or, are you trying to claim that cow's milk contains both lactose and lactase? Good grief.

Avoid the crap they pawn off as substitutes for babies. All generally bad, especially the soy based products.

So if a baby or toddler is unable to consume cow's milk, they should just avoid milk altogether? Even though soy is an excellent source of protein and the fact that soy milk has been used successfully in Asian countries for centuries?
