According to one theory I've encountered - the "racial
diet" theory - northern Europeans are less likely to
have problems with dairy products than those of
southern European, African or oriental descent.
Apparently the theorists believe that animal husbandry
occured much, much earlier in Northern Europe than in
other parts of the world. I am of Northern European
descent and I have *less* trouble with dairy than
other folks I know. However, I can only tolerate a
certain amount.
