LACTOSE INTOLERANCE, ADULT TYPE

Alternate names

LACTOSE INTOLERANCE, ADULT TYPE Is also known as adult lactase deficiency, disaccharide intolerance iii, hypolactasia, adult type

Description

In humans, the activities of lactase and most of the other digestive hydrolases are maximal at birth. The majority of the world's human population experiences a decline in production of the digestive enzyme lactase-phlorizin hydrolase during maturation, with the age of onset ranging from the toddler years to young adulthood. Due to the reduced lactase level, lactose present in dairy products cannot be digested in the small intestine and instead is fermented by bacteria in the distal ileum and colon. The fermentative products result in symptoms of diarrhea, gas bloat, flatulence, and abdominal pain. However, in a minority of adults, high levels of lactase activity persist in adulthood. Lactase persistence is a heritable autosomal dominant condition that results in a sustained ability to digest the milk sugar lactose throughout adulthood (Olds and Sibley, 2003).

Most common symptoms of LACTOSE INTOLERANCE, ADULT TYPE

  • Pain
  • Diarrhea
  • Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
  • Osteoporosis
  • Abdominal pain
