Descripción

This breath test evaluates the intestine's ability to digest and absorb lactose, the sugar found in milk and its derivatives.

When lactose is not properly digested due to a lack of the enzyme lactase, it reaches the colon, where bacteria ferment it, producing gases such as hydrogen and/or methane that are detected in the breath.

The test measures these gases at different times after ingesting a lactose solution to determine if lactose intolerance exists.

¿Is it suitable for me?

This test is for you if:
• After consuming milk or dairy products you experience abdominal pain, gas, diarrhea, or nausea.
• Your doctor suspects lactose intolerance and you want to confirm it.
• You want a non-invasive diagnosis to adjust your diet and improve your well-being.

Sample type: Breath
