How does Lactrase work?
The enzyme lactase contained in Lactrase breaks down lactose and takes over the function of the body's own lactase, which is lacking in lactose intolerance. Lactrase thus enables the pain-free consumption of milk and milk products. This also ensures that the body is supplied with the essential nutrients, minerals and vitamins contained in milk. These include protein, calcium, vitamin A and vitamin D.
Application:
You should test individually which amount of Lactrase is sufficient for you. This depends in particular on the body's own lactase production and the amount of lactose contained in the meal. As a rule, 3300 FCC units of lactase (one capsule of Lactrase) enable the consumption of approx. 5 g of lactose. The capsules should be taken immediately before or with food or drinks containing lactose. Alternatively, you can open the capsules and add the capsule contents to food or drinks that are up to 50C warm. This is particularly useful when used by children. The capsules are easy to open. Simply press the capsule together gently and pull the two halves apart at the same time.
