Introduction | Lactase is an enzyme essential for a specific biochemical reaction in the body, which involves breaking down lactose, a sugar found in milk and dairy products. Some individuals produce insufficient amounts of lactase, making it difficult for them to digest milk properly. These individuals can take lactase supplements to help break down lactose, allowing them to tolerate milk. In such cases, lactase can help prevent symptoms of lactose intolerance, such as cramps, diarrhea, and gas. |
Application | Lactase's function is to break down lactose into the two simple sugars it is made up of, glucose and galactose. Breaking down lactose into its simple sugars makes it possible for it to be absorbed via the small intestine and used by the body. If lactose is not broken down, it will pass through the digestive tract without being absorbed. |
