The enzyme that breaks down lactose (milk sugar) is called lactase, and a deficiency can prevent the body from digesting lactose.
The Lactaid supplements provide lactase. However the Lactaid brand dairy foods have already been processed to break down the lactose sugar, and do not provide the enzyme.
