Lactofree dairy drink is made from regular cows’ milk and then filtered to remove half the milk sugars. Lactase enzyme is then added to the milk to break down the remaining milk sugars into simpler forms that your body can easily absorb.
As nothing else is added or removed, what you get is the nutritional benefits and great taste of regular milk just without the lactose.
Lactofree dairy drink is available in semi-skimmed and whole varieties, either chilled or long life.
The whole dairy drink range is ideal for children who are suffering from lactose intolerance as it allows them to enjoy the taste of milk and get the nourishment required for growth and development. Lactofree Whole provides the same nutritional benefits, including calcium levels, as standard whole milk.
For more information on giving Lactofree to children see our Children’s Guide.
