It’s with how we digest it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat causes dairy intolerance, and how can enzymes help?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf 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 the sugar glucose, something easy to digest. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ENZYMEDICA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32346908524675,"sku":"39895","price":13.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0319\/0960\/9603\/products\/DAIRYASSIST-39895.jpg?v=1615199332","url":"https:\/\/myvillanegreen.com\/products\/enzymedica-dairyassist-30-capsules","provider":"Village Green Apothecary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
