The human body has many enzymes that help break down the food you eat-
for instance
when you eat chicken the protein is broken down by an enzyme called protease
when you eat milk- the sugar in it called lactose- is broken down by lactase
When babies are born their bodies produce a large amount of lactase to digest their mother's milk/formula
As Certain people get older the amount of lactase in the body decreases-making it hard to digest milk and milk products
