Seeking Health Lactase Drops provides lactase enzyme in a concentrated liquid drop format — the enzyme responsible for breaking down lactose (milk sugar) in the digestive tract. Ideal for lactose-intolerant individuals, drops can be added directly to milk products before consumption to pre-digest lactose.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lactase and who needs it?

Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose into glucose and galactose for absorption. Many adults naturally produce less lactase with age, experiencing bloating, gas, cramps and diarrhoea after consuming dairy.

How do I use Lactase Drops?

Add the recommended number of drops to milk or dairy products before consumption and allow to sit as directed (usually 24 hours refrigerated for maximal digestion). Alternatively, drops can be taken directly before consuming dairy for more immediate support.

Can Lactase Drops be used in cooking?

Yes. Add lactase drops to liquid dairy products before using them in cooking. Heated dairy will reduce lactase activity somewhat, so for high-heat cooking, chewable lactase supplements taken before the meal may be more practical.

Is lactase supplementation safe long-term?

Yes. Lactase enzyme supplementation is safe for long-term use with no known toxicity. It simply adds a digestive enzyme that some individuals produce in insufficient quantities.
