What is Lactose Intolerance?

Lactose Intolerance occurs when the body cannot digest lactose, the sugar found in milk and dairy products. This happens due to a deficiency of lactase, the enzyme needed to break down lactose. Symptoms include bloating, diarrhoea, gas, and abdominal pain. Proper dietary management can help you reduce symptoms and enjoy a balanced diet without discomfort.

Are You Struggling with Dairy Sensitivity?

Navigating lactose intolerance can feel confusing and restrictive. You may worry about avoiding dairy while meeting your nutritional needs for calcium and vitamin D. With professional support, you can manage symptoms effectively and maintain a healthy diet.
