Lactase 13,000 Depot by Vit4ever
Milk in your coffee, a dessert after a meal, or simply a piece of cheese. For those who have difficulty digesting lactose, this can go wrong. These lactase tablets contain 13,000 FCC units of pure lactase enzyme per tablet. You choose between a jar of 120 or 365 tablets. Convenient at home and on the go.
What lactase does in your body
Lactose is the sugar found in milk and dairy products. Your body normally breaks down this sugar with the help of its own enzyme: lactase. If your gut produces too little of it, the lactose remains undigested. This is where a lactase supplement comes in. The lactase enzyme improves lactose digestion in people who have difficulty digesting lactose. You take it when you eat or drink dairy products, so that the enzyme and lactose arrive in your intestines together.
13,000 FCC, what does this number mean?
FCC refers to the amount of active enzyme per tablet. The higher the number, the more lactose a tablet can process. A 13,000 FCC tablet breaks down approximately 21 grams of lactose. In the Netherlands, most lactase tablets range between 3,000 and 4,500 FCC. These lactase tablets are therefore in the upper segment. Convenient if you have a larger meal rich in dairy products in front of you and don't want to swallow several tablets each time.
The depot effect with Sepismart Slow Release
Many people wonder why this tablet is called a depot. The difference lies in the release. Thanks to the Sepismart branded raw material and slow-release technology, the lactase enzyme is not released all at once, but gradually. This way, it remains active for up to 6 hours in your digestion. In short: you are covered longer during and after a meal. This makes this depot variant a little more pleasant than a lactase tablet that does its job immediately and is then used up.
Small tablet, few excipients
The tablets are only 8 mm and easy to swallow. They are 100% vegan and contain no magnesium stearate, flavorings, colorings, or gelatin. Also lactose-free and gluten-free, which makes sense for a product that is used precisely for lactose intolerance. Made in Germany and Europe, packaged according to HACCP, GMP, and ISO 22000:2018 standards. And since it contains few excipients, the tablet remains compact.
Whether you choose the small jar of 120 or the annual supply of 365 tablets, you always get the same 13,000 FCC per tablet. These lactase tablets are a practical choice for anyone who wants to continue consuming dairy products without too much thought.
