Lactose intolerance occurs when the body is unable to fully digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and milk products, due to a deficiency of the enzyme lactase. Symptoms include abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea and flatulence. While infants produce lactase, levels typically decline after weaning in many populations worldwide. The condition can be managed by consuming smaller amounts of dairy, lactose-reduced dairy products, or supplements containing lactase enzymes. It is important for those with lactose intolerance to ensure adequate calcium and vitamin D intake through alternative food sources or supplements.
Lactose intolerance is the inability or insufficient ability to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and milk products. Lactose intolerance is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which is produced by the cells lining the small intestine. Lactase breaks down lactose into two simpler forms of sugar called glucose and galactose, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream.
Not all people with lactase deficiency have digestive symptoms, but those who do may have lactose intolerance. Most people with lactose intolerance can tolerate some amount of lactose in their diet.
People sometimes confuse lactose intolerance with cow milk allergy. Milk allergy is a reaction by the body's immune system to one or more milk proteins and can be life threatening when just a small amount of milk or milk product is consumed. Milk allergy most commonly appears in the first year of life, while lactose intolerance occurs more often in adulthood.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

5. • A brush border beta- galactosidase, lactase, carries
outthishydrolysis.
• While infants virtually always have high
concentrations of lactase, sometime after weaning a
genetically programmed reduction in lactase
synthesis results in very low lactase activity in some
adult subjects, a situation known as lactase
nonpersistence.
• Diseases of the small bowel mucosa (infection, celiac
disease) may also be associated with low brush
border lactase, with resultant lactose malabsorption
(LM)andLI.
8. World wide of populations that have
primary lactase deficiency
• The percentage of populations that have
primary lactase deficiency are considerable
throughout the world
• It Estimated that the following percentage of
specific ethnic are considered to be lactase
deficient
1. 85 – 100 of Asian
2. 80 – 100% of American Indians
3. 60 – 80 % of Africans
4. 50 – 60 % of Latinos
5. 2 - 15 % of Northern Europeans
10. • The amount of lactase available at
birthanddecreasewithage
• Yet, lactose-intolerant adults
began their lives drinking milk
from a bottle or breast and
digesting it completely.
• Babies produce the enzyme
lactase in their small intestine.
This enzyme breaks down
lactose.
• Therefore: Babies are lactose
tolerant
12. How is lactose intolerance managed?
• You can change your diet to manage your
symptoms.
• Most people with lactose intolerance do not
have to give up milk or milk products.
• You may be able to tolerate milk and milk
products if you
• Drink small amounts of milk—4 ounces or less—
at a time
• Drink small amounts of milk with meals
• Gradually add small amounts of milk and milk
products to your diet and see how you feel
13. • Eat milk products that are easier for people
with lactose intolerance to digest, such as
yogurt and hard cheeses like cheddar and
Swiss
• You can also use over-the-counter products
that may help you digest milk and milk
products.
• You can take a tablet that contains the lactase
enzyme when you eat foods that contain
lactose Add liquid lactase drops to liquid milk
products
14. • You can also find lactose-free and lactose-reduced milk and
milk products at the grocery store.
• These products have the same nutrients and benefits as
regular milk.
15. How will I know if a food has lactose?
• Lactose is found in milk and all foods made with
milk, such as
1. Ice cream
2. Cream
3. Butter
4. Cheese
5. Cottage cheese
6. Yogurt
• Rarely, people with lactose intolerance are
bothered by small amounts of lactose.
• Canned, frozen, packaged, and prepared foods
contain small amounts of lactose.
17. 9. Liquid and powdered milk-based meal replacements
10. Protein powders and bars
11. Candies
12. Non-dairy liquid and powdered coffee creamers
13. Non-dairy whipped toppings
14. Look for certain words on food labels. These words
mean the food has lactose in it:
• Milk
• Lactose
• Whey
• Curds
• Milk by-products
• Dry milk solids
• Non-fat dry milk powder
18. How will I get the calcium I need?
• Milk and milk products are the most common
sources of calcium. Calcium is a mineral the body
needs for strong bones and teeth. If you are
lactose intolerant, make sure you get enough
calcium each day. Other foods contain calcium,
such as
1. Canned salmon or sardines with bones
2. Broccoli and other leafy green vegetables
3. Oranges
4. Almonds, Brazil nuts, and dried beans
5. Soy milk and tofu
6. Products with added calcium, such as orange juice
20. Points to Remember
1. Lactoseintolerancemeansyouhavetroubledigestinglactose.
