Ha-Lactase

Ha-Lactase is one of the products in our health and wellness portfolio.

A large part of the world population suffers from lactose intolerance, which prevents them from benefiting from the nutritional value of milk products. This could result in reduced energy and protein uptake, and lack of essential minerals, especially calcium.

With the use of Ha-Lactase, dairy products can be made available for consumers suffering from intolerance and malabsorption. Another advantage of using Ha-Lactase is that the sweetness of the product increases without the use of sugars or artificial sweeteners. Its use in milk has been established for many years now, and the use in fermented milk products is growing rapidly.

Ha-Lactase is produced by fermentation of the yeast Kluyveromycis lactis and is available in two varieties that differ in lactase activity.
