A few words about Lactose Intolerance
Lactose intolerance is a painful and socially difficult condition suffered by between 6 and 10 million people in the UK. Symptoms including nausea, stomach cramps, bloating, gas and diarrhoea are all commonly associated with this condition.

What is Lactose Intolerance?
Lactose and dairy intolerance is the inability to digest significant amounts of lactose (the major sugar found in milk). It occurs when there is a shortage of the enzyme lactase produced by the cells lining the small intestine.

What is Lactase?
Lactase breaks milk sugar into two simpler forms of sugar called glucose and galactose. These are then absorbed into the bloodstream. If there is insufficient lactase in the body, about 30 minutes to two hours after eating dairy people suffer one or more of the distressing symptoms. The severity of symptoms depends on the how much dairy has been eaten and the individual’s dairy tolerance.

Why are some people less Lactose tolerant than others?
Some people are naturally prone to low levels of lactase, as we produce less as we get older. Others can become lactose intolerant after an injury to the small intestine or certain digestive diseases including Coeliac disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and Crohn’s disease. Dairy proteins, particularly casein and beta-lactoglobulin may also be a problem.

How Does Immunecare Lactase Plus Work?
If specific lactase and protease enzymes are introduced in a form the body recognises, they can break down the milk sugar and proteins that cause the problem. Immunecare Lactase Plus contains these specific enzymes in a convenient capsule.

How Do I Take Immunecare Lactase Plus?
Take 1 capsule at the start of each meal containing Lactose or dairy proteins. This will help redress the lactase level in the gut.
