What is Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000 FCC ALU?
Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000 FCC ALU by EssentialSeries is a vegan food supplement in tablet form based on Beta-galactosidase, a food-grade enzyme derived from Aspergillus oryzae.
This enzyme disaccharidase, i.e. the enzyme responsible for 'breaking' the bonds of a disaccharide, in this case lactose, which is the sugar in milk and dairy products.
Our Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000FCC ALU has been developed without the use of animal ingredients, making it a 100% veggie product suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Lactase properties
- Lactase improves lactose digestion in individuals who have difficulty digesting lactose.1
Why to take Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000 FCC ALU?
Did you know that...
Between 65-70% of humans lose the ability to break down lactose in our gut in the first years of life and develop a variable intolerance to this sugar?
(Bayless et al., 2017)
Why buy Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000 FCC ALU at HSN?
Concentration
Many companies that market lactase tell you the mass (milligrams) content of their products.
This is no good!
This is an enzyme, and as such has a unique unit of measurement, which are the enzyme activity units, in this case the ALU (Acid Lactase Units) regulated by the FCC (Food Chemical Code).
This unit is the true sign of the quality of a lactase product.
Our Lactase has 5000 units per tablet, while other good quality presentations on the market are 3000-3300 units per tablet.2 60% more potency!
Raw material
In our case we have obtained our Lactase from a fungus called Aspergillus oryzae.
It has another advantage:
Many lactase presentations, when used concomitantly with milk consumption, produce severe alterations in taste and are non-functional if not allowed to stand for at least 24 hours (DiPalma and Collins, 1989).
On the contrary, our lactase works simply by consuming it 15 minutes before consuming dairy products, without the need for maceration, and without altering the natural sweetness of the food.
Vegan
Our lactase has been produced through an extraction process from the fungal microorganism Aspergillus oryzae, and no excipients of animal origin have been used in the composition of its tablets, which means that it has no animal origin excipients:
Our Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000FCC ALU is a product suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Which products combine Lactase (Beta-Galactosidase) 5000 FCC ALU with?
It goes great with other products containing digestive enzymes such as:
- Digezyme®, our enzyme preparation with various types of enzymes.
- Bromelain 500mg, which contains proteolytic enzymes naturally present in pineapple.

Fantastic

I buy it for my daughter who is lactose intolerant. It works very well for her. And the price is unbeatable. I don't understand the abuse of other brands for something that is essential for people's health. Many thanks to HSN!

Good product

The product is fine. You have to take two to notice some effect. The bottle is much larger than the total content of the pills, it would be nice to have another system to carry it. Otherwise, it seems to have an effect and you can enjoy a pizza without the heaviness afterwards. I will repeat.

I have bought it several times. It doesn't work miracles, but it does help a little when you are going to eat something with lactose and it reduces stomach discomfort a lot.
