    I really wouldn’t be so sure that you’re not lactose-intolerant.
    Something to be aware of is that it’s not a disease, it’s actually the default for an adult mammal to lose the ability to digest lactose, because evolution doesn’t expect us to continue drinking boob juice forever.

    It’s mostly just Northern Europe that doesn’t typically have it + of course, the regions that got colonized from there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance#Epidemiology

    If you can find some pre-mixed chocolate oat milk somewhere, I can recommend trying that. For, uh, science reasons, I happen to know that I can consume a liter of it at once.

    At that point, some parts of my body do want me to calm down, just because it’s a huge amount of liquid to consume in one go.
    So, maybe you’re hitting the same after just two glasses, but your description also seriously just sounds like a light lactose-intolerance to me.
