May I ask what your ethic makeup is? I remember reading somewhere about how the further North you’re from (ancestrally-speaking), the less likely you are to be lactose intolerant.
So, as an example, if your ancestors came from the Orkney Islands in Scotland, you would be far less likely to have a milk (lactose) allergy, than if your ancestors were from Sicily. That is not to say, though, that your ancestral home is a firm determinant of the allergy, just an interesting statistic. I wish I could remember where I read this...(National Geographic? Science magazine?...something like that.)

Property facing the Arctic Ocean is way up there, and all those rules change.
That's because so many of the populations there were genetic isolates for thousands of years ~ cut off from regular access to the South ~ which for them would be the North German Plain, the Steppes, the Taiga in Siberia, and so forth.
Whatever you know about locatose intolerance, just forget with those far Northern types ~ I suppose they could obtain reindeer milk, but it's 23 percent butterfat! Makes a big difference in what you do with the stuff.
By my pedigree, I am danish, dutch, german.
Also small amounts of english, irish, roma, russian-jew, and swedish.
But I’ve learned from the internet that I have something else in me. I know from my teeth type that I have a strong oriental component. I think that comes from native american genes. Native american genes are very similar to mongoloid(chinese) genes. Also, I think my little sister had the mongoloid spots on her rump when she was a tot. It’s hard for me to be sure since the years have faded some from my memory.
This is likely where the lactose intollerance comes from. Also, I have extended family members that have problems with alcohol.
I have very fair skin, darkish hair(very fine textured, I mean freakishly so, like a new born baby), bluish eyes, and I sun burn very easily. My relatives tend to be blue eyed, and dark blond or light brown haired. But darker skinned than me, coarser hair, and less hairy. When I was a tot, I had white hair. As did most of my relatives. My beard is red. But when I was in my twenties, my beard was jet black.
I grew very slow. Probably about 1.5 inches or more after graduating highschool. I started puberty about the average time, but it lasted maybe 5 times longer for me. Puberty was a very slow process for me. It seems like I had pubic hair before everyone else, but was the last to get out of the hard painful nipple phase. My wisdom teeth came in about age 25.
I have some unusual traits. I have a lower than normal body temp. something like 97.1 degrees. I have abnormal blood enzymes. My blood pressure is strange. top number is high and bottom number is very low. I sweat so much that I’m accused of being on drugs of some kind. I can drink amazing amounts of alcohol. I can withstand very cold temps and very hot temps too, so long as I can drink as much water as frequently as I want. When I was younger I ate like you would not beleive. And I mean that. I could literally draw a crowd when I ate. As a kid, my grandparents would take me to fancy restaurants(without my parents or siblings) just to watch me eat and show off to the proprietor.
Most of this probably has no bearing on my gene type, but I thought I’d throw it out there incase someone here might read it and give me some info that I’m not aware of. This is how I was informed about teeth types. FR has some very bright people on it.
