Il.ii-Blood Glucose Test Esiankiki: Oh, now I remember—I've heard of this test before. My mom's a physician with her own office here in town. I know that my mom is participating in a clinical trial for a new lactose intolerance test that measures blood glucose. Now I wonder if I'm lactose intolerant. I once had really bad stomach aches when I ate ice cream. Maybe that's why? If we go to her office, we could try to participate in the trial and if we ask nicely, she might give us the data.

Sanjeet: And you know what's interesting when I was a baby, I didn't have these issues but I was able to digest milk just fine as I was breastfed. Chris: Wow that's fascinating-so as a baby you probably did produce the lactase enzyme and, if you are right, then your body at some point just stopped making it. Suddenly biology is starting to be more interesting... Esiankiki: Well, that would explain why…
