Potent concentrated enzyme
- Suitable for direct intake or addition to food
- Suitable for lacto-vegetarians
Lactase converts lactose to galactose and glucose and is an enzyme produced at the brush border of the epithelial surface by epithelial cells. Lactase production in many people declines rapidly after weaning, giving rise to various degrees of intolerance.
Liquid Lactase is a potent enzyme preparation, which converts lactose to glucose and galactose and so can be used to alleviate or decrease the level of lactose intolerance. Liquid Lactase can either be taken directly or added to dairy products prior to consumption.
Five drops of Pharmax Liquid Lactase will digest the lactose portion of 1/4 pint of milk in approximately 3 hours.
