• LactoseRelated: This intestinal enzyme performs the reaction that breaks lactose apart.

• Digestive enzymeBroader topic: Its role links a specific digestive enzyme to lactose absorption and intolerance.

• DisaccharideRelated: Its activity determines whether dietary lactose can be digested efficiently.

• Lactose-free milkRelated: Commercial lactose-free milk commonly uses lactase to split its lactose.

• EnterocyteRelated: Reduced brush-border lactase activity causes lactose malabsorption.

• GalactoseRelated: Lactase determines how efficiently lactose supplies galactose during digestion.

• LactitolRelated: Lactitol is derived from lactose but is not broken down by lactase in the same way.
