Who Gets Lactose Intolerance
Normally when a person eats something containing lactose, an enzyme in the
small intestine called lactase breaks down lactose into simpler sugar forms
called glucose and galactose. These simple sugars are then easily absorbed
into the bloodstream and turned into energy — fuel for our bodies.
People with lactose intolerance do not produce enough of the lactase enzyme
