FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Digestive enzymes are an organic way that humans break down and digest their food. When a person cannot create enough of these enzymes for a certain food group, they can develop a food intolerance.

It's estimated that at least a third of the world's population (and possibly twice that number) suffer from some degree of lactose intolerance.

Key Points: 
  • It's estimated that at least a third of the world's population (and possibly twice that number) suffer from some degree of lactose intolerance.
