Lactose Defense contains lactase, the enzyme needed to break down lactose, the natural sugar found in milk and dairy products. If you do not produce enough lactase yourself, dairy can be harder to digest and may lead to bloating, gas or discomfort.
That is why the product is taken around the time you eat dairy. Lactose Defense is not a probiotic or a general digestive enzyme blend, it is a targeted enzyme product for one specific food intolerance issue.
What does the lactase in Lactose Defense do?
Lactase helps break down lactose, the sugar naturally present in dairy foods.
What may Lactose Defense help with?
It may help reduce digestive discomfort linked with lactose digestion, such as bloating, gas and loose stools after dairy.
Is Lactose Defense a general digestive enzyme?
No. It is specifically designed for lactose digestion rather than broad digestive support across many foods.
