Lactose is a sugar that is derived from galactose and glucose. It is most commonly found in milk from mammals, as it makes up 2-8% of its content by weight depending on the species.
Lactose provides a number of significant nutritional benefits that cannot be found in other sources. It creates a prolonged supply of energy due to slow hydrolysis in the body, contributes to healthy intestinal flora, and increases the absorption of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc.
Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose properly, which produces some miserable side effects.
