Lactase is a digestive enzyme required for the breakdown of the milk sugar lactose. Lactase should be produced in the small intestines, however if little or no lactase is produced or if production is impaired, undigested lactose moves into the colon where it is fermented and hydrogen, carbon dioxide and organic acids are produced often resulting in cramps, wind and diarrhoea.
This intolerance to lactose is not life threatening however, it can make patients feel very unwell and although eliminating milk based products is one solution, it can prove impractical as well as resulting in a very restricted diet. Lamberts Super Strength Lactase Complex 350mg is equivalent to 9000 FCC (Food Chemical Codex)*, making it one of the highest strength and best value products available to practitioners with no compromise on the quality.
How to take Lamberts Super Strength Lactase Complex 350mg Tablets:
Take 1 tablet before a meal containing dairy products (lactose). Do not exceed 3 tablets per day.
Each tablet delivers: Lactase Complex 350mg equivalent to 9000 FCC*
*The enzyme activity is measured and expressed in Food Chemical Codex (FCC) units, a standard for plant enzymes that is a better description than weight in milligrams, as it describes the level of enzyme activity. This is a high potency product and can only be compared with other manufacturers' products if they supply units of activity (not weight).

Having suffered for a year with lactose intolerance, I tried these tablets when going out for meals or when I really need cheese! Really good, so long
... as I take them I get no stomach pains or anything. Great!

These tablets have allowed my daughter to eat dairy products again with no ill effects, although she's usually intolerant to cheese, milk, yogurt
I bought this product as I was wanting to eat more healthy low or non-fat diary but struggled to find a lactose free and healthy combination. I read s
...ome of the recommendations about taking it before eating - some people said it was best to take 30 mins before a meal. Others said to take it just before eating. I have to say, having tried both methods, neither worked. Thankfully, all I ate was fat free yoghurt (I dread to think how I would have felt after eating cream or ice-cream). Unfortunately, for me, this product did not work. I had nausea, gurgling stomach and the other usual irritable bowel complaints you get when you are lactose intolerant and eat products containing the dreaded lactose. I think I will stick to the Arla lactofree products and give this lactase enzyme option a miss.

Being a lactose intolerant for a few years now, I had to quit from most dairy completely. After trying a couple of lactase brands without success, i d
...ecided to give this one a try, and although it doesn't eliminate all my symptoms completely, they are quite effective and now I can enjoy a meal out and many other things that I had cut back! Will definitely buy again!

I found out I was lactose intolerant a few years ago. While its easy to exclude dairy products at home, these pills are perfect for eating out. No mor
...e checking menus or asking for special dishes. Just take one or 2 pills and eat what you like.
I find they work best if taken 20-30 minutes before eating and will cope with anything you like, even a cheese platter!

All is well - this helps me digest dairy products - which would otherwise make me ill or I would have to avoid them altogether.
So, as such they are
...what I wanted, what I expected and what I am happy to report as an effective lactase product (i.e they help you digest lactose).
Have bought several Lamberts Lactase pots over the past couple of years. Still the best I have tried. Easy to just chew with the first mouthful of dairy (or immediately before) - so it digests with the food at the same time which I am guessing is ideal.
Would recommend and will be purchasing again myself.
