Lactase Complex

The Lactase (lactase) is a necessary digestive enzyme for the cleavage of the main milk Lactose carbohydrate (lactose). Lactase is produced by the body in the small intestine.

In cases of reduced or null production of lactase in the small intestine, the unbroken lactose, is guided in the large intestine where it is fermented. This leads to the production of hydrogen, carbon dioxide and organic acids results, producing gas, the contraction of the muscle of the intestinal wall and causing diarroias.I severity of clinical events depends on the degree of enzyme deficiency.

Lactose intolerance is not life threatening, but it leads to quality disturbances as avoiding dairy products can lead to dietary restrictions. The potency of enzyme activity is measured by the Food Chemical Codex units (FCC). The FoodChemical Codex is the globally applicable standard for determining the activity of plant enzymes. This standard describes the effect of enzyme activity in units (iu), better than other widely used standard, used for determining the enzymatic activity of the weight of the enzyme (measured in mg).

To this product is high power, and can only be compared with similar products from other manufacturers, including as the activity measurement determination of enzyme units (iu) and not the weight (mg). This product can be used for a long time helping to reduce the symptoms of intolerance to lactose.
