Beta-Galactosidase

What Is Beta-Galactosidase?

Beta-Galactosidase is a digestive enzyme in the human body. It is the most important digestive enzyme in infants and young children whose breast milk/milk powder is the main source of nutrition.

Beta-Galactosidase is mainly used in the dairy industry, which can convert lactose with low sweetness and solubility into sweet monosaccharide with high solubility. Reduce the possibility of lactose crystallization in ice cream, concentrated milk and evaporated milk, and increase the sweetness.

Product Applications 

1.Digestion Of Lactose: the main function of Beta-Galactosidase is to break down lactose into glucose and galactose. These two monosaccharides are more easily absorbed by the epithelial cells of the small intestine and enter the bloodstream to provide energy for the body. Beta-Galactosidase is one of the most important digestive enzymes in the body for infants who take breast milk or milk powder as the main source of nutrition.

2.Promote The Development Of Infant Brain: glucose is the source of energy for the metabolism of various organs of the human body, and galactose is the necessary structural sugar for the metabolism of brain and mucosal tissue. By breaking down lactose into these two simple sugars, Beta-Galactosidase provides essential nutrients for brain development in infants and young children. Beta-Galactosidase plays an important role in promoting brain development in infants and young children.

3.Improve The Symptoms Of Lactose Intolerance: lactose intolerance is due to the lack or reduced activity of Beta-Galactosidase in the body, resulting in lactose can not be completely broken down and absorbed, so as to accumulate in the intestine and cause a series of indigestion symptoms, such as abdominal distension, diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc.
