Another popular reason to go dairy-free is reduced bloating and flatulence. This is mainly relevant for individuals who are lactose intolerant or those with irritable bowel syndrome and similar conditions. There is no evidence suggesting a dairy-free diet will reduce bloating and flatulence in individuals who do not have a condition that affects their ability to digest dairy. If individuals are experiencing bloating and flatulence on a regular basis, it's not a bad idea for them to temporarily remove dairy from their diet to see if it is the cause of these symptoms, as lactose intolerance is very common. It is important to keep in mind eliminating dairy from one's diet doesn't guarantee a reduction in bloating and flatulence, however, as it may not be the cause.
