Organic long-life alpine milk without lactose, full fat BGL 1 l

Product detailed description

This long-life whole milk has been naturally lactose-free using an enzyme. It is suitable for people who are lactose intolerant. The milk comes from free-range cows in the Alps. These cows choose the mountain herbs they like and enjoy the most, which is reflected not only in the nutritional value of the milk, but also in its aroma and taste. This milk has a creamier color compared to regular milk, a delicious taste and a pleasant aroma. The milk is homogenized and treated with ultra-high temperature (UHT technology). This means that the milk does not need to be stored in the refrigerator before opening and has a longer shelf life. Unfortunately, it also has a different taste than fresh milk. It is therefore a good choice especially for trips, at the cottage, or as a stock in case fresh milk runs out.

WHAT IS LACTOSE INTOLERANCE: Lactose is the main sugar present in milk, and is therefore also called milk sugar. Our body cannot absorb lactose, but it can use the lactase enzyme to break it down into simpler components that it processes. If we have a deficiency of this enzyme, then we suffer from lactose intolerance. Symptoms of this disorder include diarrhea, bloating, abdominal rumbling, abdominal cramps and abdominal pain after consuming milk. It is reported that approximately one in six people is affected in this way. The incidence of lactose intolerance is proportional to age; it is rare in young children, while the majority of the population suffers from it in older people. Some people have a genetically determined deficiency of the lactase enzyme. Transient (temporary) lactose intolerance can be caused by infectious diarrhea and antibiotic treatment. After the intestinal mucosa heals, lactase begins to be produced again. Lactose intolerance can also be caused by chronic intestinal diseases such as celiac disease and Crohn's disease. The only treatment for this disorder is to limit lactose in the diet.
