Lactase Enzyme And Sea Salt

Lactase enzyme is a protein that helps break down lactose, a sugar found in milk. It is produced through fermentation using yeast or bacteria. Sea salt is salt harvested from evaporated seawater.

Lactase enzyme is added to dairy products to make them lactose-free, benefiting individuals with lactose intolerance. Sea salt is used as a flavor enhancer and preservative in a variety of foods, including snacks and processed meals.

Lactase enzyme is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for its intended use. It aids digestion for those who are lactose intolerant. Sea salt is chemically similar to table salt and is used in moderation. The FDA sets a Daily Value for sodium at 2,300 mg per day. Excessive sodium intake is linked to high blood pressure.
