Lactase Enzymes, 9000 FCC ALU, 60 capsUnlike most mammals that produce the enzyme lactase just until they are weaned, humans continue to produce it throughout their lives. However, some humans gradually produce less lactase as they age, and become lactose intolerant as a result. For about 2 3 of the population, drinking a glass of milk or consuming lactose (the sugar in milk), can cause cramps, gas, bloating and diarrhea.

Unlike most mammals that produce the enzyme lactase just until they are weaned, humans continue to produce it throughout their lives. However, some humans gradually produce less lactase as they age, and become lactose intolerant as a result. For about 2/3 of the population, drinking a glass of milk or consuming lactose (the sugar in milk), can cause cramps, gas, bloating and diarrhea.  Organika's Lactase Enzyme Beta-Galactosidase Capsules contains 90 mg of Beta-galactosidase, equivalent to the potency of 9000 IU of acid lactose units. The lactase enzyme has the role of digesting lactose in the small intestine. It has the ability to hydrolyze lactose over a wide range of temperatures and pH. The enzyme allows us the pleasure of consuming lactose rich foods such as milk, ice cream, yogurt and the many other foods that would surprise you by their lactose content. The degree of the lactose intolerance varies by each individual and the food they are consuming. Take Organika's Lactase Enzyme Beta Galactosidase Capsules prior to consuming a lactose rich meal to assist in the digestion of foods containing lactose.  When avoiding lactose means avoiding your favourite foods or depleting your diet of valuable nutrients, a lactase enzyme can be a safe, natural alternative.
