BENEFITS

• Reduces the symptoms associated with lactose intolerance
• Minimizes gas and bloating
• Reduces cramps and abdominal pain
• Helps digest foods with dairy

Dosage

Recommended adult dose: 1–2 capsules just before consuming any food containing lactose or as directed by a health care practitioner.
