Lactose-Free Foods

Buy lactose-free foods – Enjoyment without milk sugar

Lactose-free foods contain little to no dairy products and are therefore the right choice for anyone who has difficulty tolerating milk sugar. At zukono, you will find a carefully curated selection of foods, sweets, and beverages that are suitable for consumption with lactose intolerance – all without sacrificing taste.

What happens with lactose intolerance?

With lactose intolerance, milk sugar (lactose) is not fully or not at all digested. The cause is usually a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which normally breaks down milk sugar in the small intestine into its components. If undigested milk sugar reaches the large intestine, it can lead to discomfort such as bloating, abdominal pain, or diarrhea. Therefore, those with lactose intolerance should avoid or at least significantly reduce the intake of milk sugar in their diet.

What should you pay attention to when shopping?

Milk sugar is not only found in milk, cream, or yogurt – it also hides in many processed products like chocolate, pastries, or ready-made desserts. This is where we come in: In this category, we collect all the products from our shop that are lactose-free. However, it is always worth taking a look at the ingredient list, as each product is composed differently.
