About Lactose-free food

Lactose is the natural sugar present in milk or milk products. Lactase is an enzyme that helps in the digestion of lactose. Therefore, deficiency of lactase leads to the accumulation of lactose in the body, which causes gas, cramps, bloating, nausea, and diarrhea. The foods that do not contain lactose are termed as lactose-free food products.

Technavio’s analysts forecast the global lactose-free food market to grow at a CAGR of 11.10% during the period 2017-2021.
