Lactase 14,500 FCC is a food supplement in tablets formulated with the enzyme lactase, which helps improve the digestion of lactose in people who have difficulty digesting it. It is presented as a practical alternative to supplement the diet when consuming products that contain this natural milk sugar.
Lactose is a sugar naturally present in milk and in many of its derivatives, such as yogurts, fresh cheeses and other dairy preparations. To be able to digest it properly, the body needs lactase, an enzyme that is responsible for breaking it down into glucose and galactose, two simpler sugars.
Some people produce insufficient amounts of this enzyme, which can make it difficult to digest foods containing lactose. Lactase supplements provide an additional contribution of the enzyme to facilitate this digestive process.
One of the main characteristics of this product is its high enzymatic activity, expressed in FCC units. This unit allows the enzyme's ability to act on lactose to be identified and constitutes an important data point for comparing different lactase preparations.
The manufacturer recommends taking one tablet before ingesting foods containing lactose. This guideline allows the supplement to be incorporated at times when it is planned to consume dairy products or other foods that include lactose among their ingredients.
It should be borne in mind that lactose tolerance varies between people. The amount of enzyme needed may depend on the amount of lactose ingested and individual digestive characteristics. For this reason, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and observe personal tolerance.
The formulation incorporates lactose as an ingredient, along with dicalcium phosphate, hydroxypropylcellulose and anti-caking agents. This composition should be taken into account especially in people who need to control the ingredients of food supplements.
The label identifies the product as gluten-free, a relevant feature for people who must avoid this protein. However, lactase does not serve to prevent allergic reactions to milk proteins and does not replace the necessary precautions in the event of an allergy.
The tablet format makes it easier to carry the supplement and use it before meals. The manufacturer establishes a maximum daily dose that must be respected.
It is important to remember that food supplements do not replace a varied and balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle. The product should be stored in a cool, dry place, protected from sunlight and out of reach of small children.
