Treatment of milk or lactose intolerance

Some people are dairy intolerant. A section of these people are intolerant due to a inability to break down lactose. Because this milk sugar is not broken down it is free to be used by the kilogram of bacteria you have in your digestive system. These bacteria produce gas as a waste product. The gas then causes you to have gas/bloating and the other symptoms of lactose intolerance.

The enzyme needed to break down the lactose is called lactase.The groovey thing is that if you take lactase with a meal that contains lactose, the lactase will break down the lactose as it passes through your digestive system. This is an over the counter health product and can be purchased in NZ online or at other online stores.
