How does lactaid speed up the breakdown and metabolism of lactose?
Wiki User

It is an artificial enzyme which takes the place of lactase. It acts as a catalyst by lowering the activation energy of the reaction in which lactose is broken down. This speeds up the metabolism of lactose.

What is enzyme products?
Enzymes are complex proteins that exist in plants, animals and humans. In Biological terms enzymes function as biological catalysts (they make biological processes happen). In Chemistry catalysts often are metals like nickel or palladium (i.e the catalytic converter in your car). In the chemical industry catalysts are used to initiate, speed up or slow down a reaction. In Biological processes, enzymes or "bio-catalysts" are used to initiate a reaction or more simply put, to accomplish some kind of task. A good example is the enzyme "Lactase" which is used in the product called "Lactaid" (milk). All milk contains the sugar lactose which is said to cause digestive upset (lactose intolerance) in some people. The enzyme "Lactase" acts upon the lactose in milk and converts it to another sugar called galactose and one or two other harmless components rendering the milk "lactose free". LACTAID is REAL milk which has had lactose removed because of the action of the enzyme....Lactase was resonsible for the biological reaction that converted lactose to other sugars which do not cause digestive upset.
