Lactose-Free Chocolate Pudding image

As you already know, I work with lactose intolerant kids and mesothelioma patients and some forms of radiation, along with other mesothelioma treatments, may bring on lactose intolerance in patients. When a person is lactose intolerant, that person's body cannot digest or absorb a milk sugar called lactose. This can cause moderate to severe digestive issues, and may make getting proper nutrition during mesothelioma treatment a challenge. Here is a recipe for a delicious chocolate pudding that even lactose intolerant patients can enjoy.
