What is lactase?

Lactase (beta-galactosidase) is an enzyme present in the small intestine of many individuals. It’s essential for the digestion of lactose (a sugar molecule found in milk), helping to break it down into two smaller sugars, glucose and galactose.

Not everyone produces enough lactase naturally. When the body cannot produce enough of this enzyme, a supplementary form can assist with lactose digestion, which may help relieve discomforts associated with lactose intolerance.*
