The Science
When it comes to dairy intolerance, the problem isn’t with what we eat. It’s with how we digest it.
What causes dairy intolerance, and how can enzymes help?
If our bodies have difficulty digesting dairy, the root cause comes from a lack of lactase, a lactose-digesting enzyme, in our guts. Enzymes are designed to break down a specific kind of food or compound, so the more or less lactase we have, the better or worse we can digest lactose. This enzyme works by breaking down lactose, which is difficult to digest, and turning it into sugar glucose, something easy to digest.
When we don’t have enough enzymes to digest the dairy we eat, the body retains water in the gut, resulting in uncomfortable symptoms like occasional bloating and irregularity. There are a number of reasons why someone may be lactase deficient, from age and genetics to being born without the ability to produce lactase, but the bottom line is that many Americans experience this—as many as 50 million of them.
This is where supplements come in. While DairyAssist comes with lactase for digesting lactose, it also includes protease for complete dairy digestion.* Protease, a protein-digesting enzyme, helps break down casein and dairy proteins, so that every part of the dairy product is easily digested.
Suggested Use:
Take 1 capsule with each meal containing dairy. More may be taken as needed. For a more advanced formula, try Lacto™.
Consult with a physician prior to use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have a medical condition.
