Order Lactose Tolerance TestThe lactose tolerance test measures how well the body digests lactose, the sugar naturally found in milk and dairy products. Because lactose intolerance is common, this test helps distinguish true malabsorption from other causes of digestive discomfort.
About Lactose Tolerance Test in Paramount
Lactose intolerance occurs when the small intestine produces insufficient lactase, the enzyme needed to break lactose into simpler sugars.
During the test, a measured amount of lactose is consumed, and blood samples are taken at intervals to track glucose levels. A rise in blood glucose indicates that lactose has been broken down and absorbed; a flat response suggests lactase deficiency.
Symptoms such as bloating, gas, cramps, and diarrhea after dairy intake are not exclusive to lactose intolerance, so objective testing can clarify the picture. The lactose tolerance test is one of several methods, alongside hydrogen breath testing and genetic testing.
Results are interpreted by a clinician alongside symptoms and dietary history. The test does not identify other carbohydrate malabsorptions or confirm unrelated gastrointestinal conditions.
