Former cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin revealed that he has been avoiding milk for years due to lactose intolerance, explaining that consuming it causes severe digestive issues lasting for days, which is why he prefers black coffee over milk-based filter coffee. While he believes black coffee is a healthier option, experts stress that nutrition should be personalised, noting that lactose intolerance occurs due to a deficiency of the enzyme lactase and affects people differently. Many individuals can still tolerate foods like curd, yoghurt, aged cheese, or lactose-free milk, while black coffee, consumed in moderation, is low in calories and rich in antioxidants. Dietitians also emphasise that those avoiding dairy should ensure adequate calcium, vitamin D, and protein through other foods, and that the choice between black and filter coffee should depend on individual digestive tolerance and preference rather than the assumption that one is universally healthier
