Adult lactose digestion status and effects on disease.

Canadian journal of gastroenterology & hepatology - 1 Apr 2015

Szilagyi Andrew

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Adult assimilation of lactose divides humans into dominant lactase-persistent and recessive nonpersistent phenotypes. OBJECTIVES: To review three medical parameters of lactose digestion, namely: the changing concept of lactose intolerance; the possible impact on diseases of microbial adaptation in lactase-nonpersistent populations; and the possibility that the evolution of lactase has influenced some...
