Those who are already allergic to lactose have not enough lactase enzyme level. This mean lactose cannot be digested and absorbed, causing diarrhoea, collywobbles, stomach bloating and pain in their abdomen. Probiotic such as Laktobasilus gasseri yields lactase, therefore it can help to rise the low level enzyme therefore simultaneously reducing this allergic reaction.Enhance digestionBalanced intestinal microflora has an obvious positive effect for digestion. It helps to control indigestibility and collywobbles after lunch.Enhance minerals absorptionProbiotic also help to increase minerals such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorus absorption within the body.Produce vitaminProbiotics are able to produce vitamins such as vitamin C and several types vitamin ...
