About Lactose Intolerance Test

Lactose Malabsorption and Digestive Symptoms

Lactose is the natural sugar found in milk and dairy products. To digest lactose properly, the body needs lactase, an enzyme produced in the small intestine.

When lactase activity is low, lactose may not be fully broken down and absorbed. Instead, it can reach the large intestine, where gut bacteria ferment it and produce gases. This can lead to symptoms such as bloating, gas, abdominal pain, rumbling, diarrhoea or digestive discomfort after dairy products.

This test measures hydrogen and methane in breath samples after lactose intake to assess how your body digests lactose.

Sample Collection

The sample is collected using a breath test at home. You collect breath samples at specific time points before and after drinking the lactose solution, according to the included instructions.

Correct preparation and sample timing are important, as diet, medication, supplements and gut activity can affect breath gas results.
