Enzymedica Lacto in Pakistan
The dairy map: how much lactose is in your daily doodh, dahi and chai?
What Is Lactose Intolerance?
Lactose is the natural sugar in milk. To digest it, the small intestine makes an enzyme called lactase. Many adults make less lactase as they grow older, which is common in South Asia. When lactose is not fully digested, it can cause bloating, gas, stomach cramps or loose motions after dairy.
A lactase enzyme supplement, such as this one, provides the enzyme itself, which supports the digestion of lactose.
The Dairy Map
Approximate lactose in common Pakistani dairy foods. These are rough estimates, and they vary by brand and recipe.
| Food | Serving | Approx. lactose |
|---|---|---|
| Milk (doodh) | 1 cup | About 10 to 12 g |
| Chai with milk | 1 cup | About 2 to 4 g |
| Dahi (yogurt) | 1 cup | Lower than milk, about 6 to 9 g, since fermentation breaks some down |
| Lassi | 1 glass | Varies; sweet lassi made with milk can be higher |
| Kheer, rabri, kulfi, ice cream | 1 serving | Often high, because they contain concentrated milk |
| Paneer | 100 g | Low, usually a few grams or less |
| Aged cheese | 1 slice | Very low |
| Butter and ghee | 1 tablespoon | Trace amounts |
What this shows: many people tolerate dahi, paneer, ghee and butter better than plain milk, kheer or ice cream. Your own tolerance is personal, and it varies from person to person.
What Lactase Does
| Statement | Status |
|---|---|
| Lactase is the enzyme that breaks lactose into glucose and galactose | Well established |
| A lactase supplement provides this enzyme | Accurate |
| It supports the digestion of lactose in dairy foods | Accurate |
| It treats a milk allergy, or cures lactose intolerance | We do not claim this |
Lactose Intolerance Is Not a Milk Allergy
| Lactose intolerance | Milk allergy | |
|---|---|---|
| Cause | Not enough lactase enzyme | The immune system reacts to milk proteins |
| Symptoms | Bloating, gas, cramps, loose motions | Hives, swelling, vomiting, wheezing, or a severe reaction |
| Does lactase help? | It can support lactose digestion | No. It does nothing for a milk allergy |
If you or your child may have a milk allergy, please see a doctor. Do not use a lactase supplement as a substitute for avoiding milk.

How to Take It
- Take [serving as directed on the label] right before your first bite or sip of dairy, or with your first mouthfuls.
- If you eat a large dairy meal, such as kheer or ice cream, ask what the label says about taking an extra capsule during the meal.
- Keep a few capsules in your bag when eating out.
- You do not need it for lactose-free foods.
Tips for Dairy Lovers
| Tip | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Try dahi, paneer and ghee if milk upsets you | They contain less lactose |
| Have dairy with a meal, not alone | Slows the pace |
| Choose smaller portions at first | Your tolerance may be higher than you think |
| Keep calcium in your diet | If you cut dairy, look at other calcium sources, such as sesame seeds, almonds and fish with soft bones |
Do Not Self-Diagnose
Bloating and loose motions have many causes, including coeliac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, infections and other conditions. If symptoms are frequent, severe, or come with weight loss, blood in the stool or night-time symptoms, please see a doctor.
What to Expect
Lactase enzymes are generally well tolerated. Rarely, people notice stomach upset or an allergic reaction. Stop and consult a doctor if you feel unwell.
Who Should Speak to a Doctor First
- Anyone with a milk allergy, or a child with suspected milk allergy
- People with galactosemia
- People with diabetes, since lactase turns lactose into glucose and galactose, so ask your doctor about your carbohydrate count
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Anyone buying for a child
Storage
Keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture, especially in Pakistan's hot months, since enzymes are sensitive to heat and humidity. Keep out of reach of children.
