Choosing a lactase enzyme should feel simple. The best option depends on how you eat dairy, where you need support, and how strong you want it.
This guide helps you choose the right Milkaid product for your routine.
Lactase enzyme improves lactose digestion in individuals who have difficulty digesting lactose.
What does lactase enzyme do?
Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose (the natural sugar in milk and dairy) into smaller sugars that are easier to digest. If your body doesn’t produce enough lactase, dairy can cause uncomfortable symptoms. Lactase enzyme supplements help support lactose digestion when dairy is on the menu.
