Seeking Health Lactase Drops - Liquid Supplement with Lactase Enzyme for Dairy Intolerance Support - Intolerance Support for Digestion - Lactase Enzyme Supplement - 0.50 Fl oz, 52 Servings

Bought for baby opossums because they are unable to tolerate lactose. It worked, kept them healthy and they never got ill from the milk

One of the unpleasant realities of getting older for many people includes losing the ability to digest the natural sugar in milk, lactose. Most children and young adults produce an enzyme, lactase, that breaks down milk so our bodies can use it. But as we age, many people don't produce lactase in sufficient quantity to digest lactose. If you have wondered why eating some foods gives you gas when they didn't bother you in your youth, read the labels and look for milk products within. You know that ice cream, cheese and yogurt contain milk, but also most desserts, baked goods, and other manufactured foods contain either milk, cream, butter or lactose. Lactose is sometimes used as an alternative to sucrose (sugar) to sweeten foods. There are two ways that lactose-intolerant people can eat milk products without gas discomfort: by adding lactose to the food, or taking a lactose pill while eating the food. The problem with the pill is it does not have sufficient time to break down all the lactose when it is already in your stomach. However, if you add lactase 24 hours in advance to any kind of milk (e.g., whole, 2%, 1%, nonfat) or cream, the enzyme has time to break down the lactose. I just made ice cream by adding Liquid Lactase to the milk and cream before putting them in the ice cream maker, and I enjoyed ice cream without any discomfort! Homemade ice cream is also all natural--no gums, stabilizers and fillers that many commercial ice creams have. You can also make lactose-free butter using cream. Butter is simply churned cream, so you can add Liquid Lactase to cream and shake it into butter in about 20-30 minutes. It helps to have a partner share this exercise if your arms tire easily. If you like salt in your butter, add it to the cream before shaking it. Another bonus to making your own lactose-free milk is that it is less expensive than buying pre-made brands!

This stuff has been a GAMECHANGER for our super spitty baby. He’s almost 11 months old and has just spit up constantly his whole life. All day. There was no relief from the spit up. It didn’t hurt him and he was gaining weight, so the ped just declared it a laundry issue. But I was so frustrated. Every formula we tried, even when he got more stable sitting up and starting solids - it was constant. It wasn’t cows milk protein allergy - we tried the special (expensive) formulas for that and the spit up got worse because it was so thin. After giving him yogurt for breakfast for a day or two, he started having really bad diarrhea and diaper rash. He was clearly having an issue with the dairy. I started looking around for connection between lactose intolerance and spitting up and came across lactase enzymes. All the research I saw said it would either help or it’d do nothing at all. I figured I had nothing to lose. Within 24 hours we noticed a reduction in his spit up. Almost 3 weeks later and his spit up is virtually gone. Maybe a few here or there within 30 minutes of a bottle, but that’s pretty normal. We batch make bottles at night for the next 24 hours (twin life - his sister has had zero spit up issues) and add 5 drops per bottle. That may be more than we need, but it’s working!

I mixed the correct ratio into half 'n half ahead of time to cool in fridge. It worked well with my coffee; no stomach upset. Today, I used two drops into my coffee that already had the cream and I had an upset stomach. Right now, six hours after drinking it, I have an upset stomach/bowel. Thus, mix it ahead of time.

We have a lactose intolerant in the household. It isn't terrible, but its not good either. I think the instructions say to use like 18 drops per quart or something like that. We started off at 18 per half gallon and slowly started to reduce until problems started to happen. I am now at about 12 per gallon with no ill effects. I have to say this stuff is awesome. I can taste it, but its not bad. It is nowhere near as bad as the popular Milk brand is. With this we are able to save money by buying regular organic milk and treating it. It is a good deal overall. We use this to treat half and half and heavy cream when making ice cream, and while I usually forget to do it the night before, it still helps reduce the effects for home made ice cream. I have been using this for about 1 year now. really good stuff.

I put 14 drops of lactase enzymes in regular milk - 1 quart. I waited for 3 days before consuming. I had abdominal pain and my lower abdominal began to expand larger and larger as if I were pregnant and it was around 1 am in the morning when things started to get worrisome. I was hoping to sleep off the pain. I couldn't sleep and was tossing and turning in pain. The pain was so bad that I thought my internal organs were going to burst! I was in so much pain. Thankfully, I remembered that I had just bought probiotics, (RAW garden of Life for Women). I stopped using probiotics for many years and decided to get back on them again. Shortly after taking only 1 capsule, the bloating went down and the pain subsided and eventually stopped. THANKFULLY I recently bought probiotics and remembered that it might have lactase. Maybe enzyme drops work for other people but it did not work for me. I will never try this again. I'm sticking to store bought lactose free milk.

Buen producto. Es la segunda vez que las compro. Si bien, han ayudado ha disminuir los cólicos en mi hijo de 5 años al tomar lácteos, aún tiene problemas de gases, pero definitivamente ya no sufre al tomar la leche. 100% recomendable.
