The cures: Substitutions, dietary supplements, healthy diet

Technically, lactose intolerance is incurable, but you can find alternatives and nourish yourself to recompense for the lack of dairy products in your diet. First of all, you can substitute plant-based milks: almond milk, soy milk, rice milk, etc. There are also plenty of vegan, non-dairy-based cheeses widely available in health supermarkets for those who still need the taste of cheese in their life. To make up for the calcium deficiency, you can take dietary supplements. And  you should be eating lots of leafy green vegetables, fatty fish and calcium-fortified foods.
