What Causes Fainting After Drinking Coffee When Suffering From Lactose Intolerance?
i was diagnosed as gluten intolerant and lactose sensitive at Mayo clinic two years ago. A month ago after a cleansing fast I had coffee and dessert at a friends. 20 minutes later I got very dizzy and passed out for a minute. I was fine right away, but what happened?

Hi,
Dizziness is not a symptom of gluten or lactose intolerance. In case, you don't have any other cause( heart problem, blood pressure, severe anemia, vertigo, psychological stress's, diabetes etc). You seem to have a vasovagal attack due to overexertion of work, causing you the symptom.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
