A member asked:
Will supplementing lactase help me to digest casein? or is there an otc enzyme to help digest casein?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Supplementing lactase helps you digest lactose, the sugar that is in milk and dairy. Casein is the protein that is in milk and dairy, and has no connection with the lactase enzyme for digesting it. Different enzyme systems digest your proteins, fats and carbohydrates (sugars).
