What is lactose intolerance analysis?
-
Actose intolerance analysis is a clinical evaluation designed to identify the body's ability to digest and process lactose, the sugar present in milk and its derivatives. This lactose test is commonly performed through a lactose intolerance test, which involves administering a controlled dose of lactose and evaluating the body's response. Lactose intolerance occurs when the body does not produce enough lactase, the enzyme responsible for breaking down lactose. Lactose intolerance analysis provides crucial information for those experiencing symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, or diarrhea after consuming dairy products, helping to identify milk intolerance and take appropriate measures for a lactose-free diet.
