Lactosolv is a dietary supplement designed to facilitate lactose digestion in people suffering from lactose intolerance. This condition is characterized by the body's inability to break down lactose - a natural sugar found in milk and dairy products - due to a deficiency of the enzyme lactase.
Forms of release
Lactosolv is available in capsule form, in boxes containing 30 capsules. This form is ideal for oral administration and is easy to carry and use.
For people who have difficulty swallowing, the capsules can be opened and the contents swallowed with water without chewing.
Indications for use
Lactosolv capsules is indicated for people who are lactose intolerant, facilitating the digestion of milk and milk products. It is useful for:
- Prevention of digestive symptoms caused by lactose intolerance (bloating, abdominal cramps, diarrhea);
- Consuming foods and drinks containing lactose, such as milk, cheese, yoghurt or dairy desserts;
Lactosolv provides 17,500 FCC lactase per capsule, thus supporting the digestive process and preventing unpleasant symptoms associated with intolerance, such as flatulence or diarrhea.
Lactosolv supplements the missing lactase enzyme in the digestive tract by dissolving it in the stomach. The enzyme released rapidly converts the lactose in the chyme into digestible nutrients, thus facilitating the comfortable consumption of dairy products.
Dosage regimen
The recommended dose of Lactosolv is 1-3 capsules taken with a meal or when drinking a lactose-containing beverage. The specific dose should be adjusted according to the lactose content of the food consumed and the level of intolerance of each individual.
One capsule of Lactosolv can break down approximately 29 g of lactose, equivalent to ½ liter of milk. It is important to take Lactosololv in conjunction with lactose-containing foods to ensure maximum effectiveness.
