Lactose also known as milk sugar, is a complex carbohydrate, accounting for about 2-8 percent of the dry matter content of milk. We mainly need lactose during infancy, and therefore it is not uncommon that in adulthood your body does not produce any lactase enzyme, required to break down lactose, which causes lactose intolerance.

Today nearly 75 percent of the world’s population suffers from lactose intolerance. Protein is an essential building block of our body, a source of nutrients made up of amino acids produced by our body and supplemented by external sources. It contributes to maintaining and growing muscle tissues.
