The Once-Daily Lactose Digestion Solution

This extended relief probiotic works well, and "holy cow", it's actually made in the USA. If you're tiring of all the supplements made in China, this one's for you.Does it work at reducing your symptoms from consuming dairy? It seems to, after taking it for the recommended 14 days to assess its efficacy. But it's pricey. Is it worth it? That depends on your symptoms. I'd pay a lot to avoid them, but then again, I've already been buying great lactose-free products that mostly resolve them.Let's talk about that bottle: When you open it, you're going to ask yourself, "Did they send me too few pills?" You would have to buy 5 bottles to be able to fill 1 of them with capsules. That's annoying. The planet is suffocating in plastics and, despite claims that your community recycles them, they really don't. (Google it). But there must be some highly paid marketing person in every organization who says "if the bottle is smaller, fewer will pay a premium for the product". And so, we and our landfills end up with a bunch of oversized bottles.That said, it's a really good product. Highly recommended.

As someone who is lactose intolerant but also loves cheese and ice-cream. These pills are a godsend. The are effective in helping with the digestion of lactose products. You have to still take your regular lactose enzyme pills for a while, but then you can eventually wean off of them in the long term. They help with the pain and bloating if you have trouble digesting lactose.

**Element Longevity Once-Daily Lactose Digestion Support – Effective, Convenient Alternative to Enzyme Pills**I have managed lactose intolerance for years using traditional lactase enzyme tablets, so I was interested in a once-daily option that did not require timing pills around every meal. After following the recommended 21-day transition period, this product performed as advertised.The biggest advantage is convenience. Taking one capsule per day significantly reduces the mental overhead of planning dairy consumption. After the adjustment period, I was able to consume moderate amounts of dairy—such as cheese and milk—without the usual gas, bloating, or cramping.The capsules are small, easy to swallow, and caused no stomach irritation.It is important to set expectations correctly. This is not an instant fix, nor a cure. The initial transition phase is necessary, and results are gradual rather than immediate. Once established, however, the all-day support is consistent and reliable.The primary drawback is price. At roughly one dollar per capsule, it is more expensive than standard lactase tablets. That said, for those who consume dairy regularly or dislike taking enzymes with every meal, the convenience and effectiveness may justify the cost.**Pros*** Once-daily dosing is genuinely convenient* Noticeable reduction in gas and bloating after transition period* Easy-to-swallow capsules with no strong taste or odor* Clean formula (non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free)**Cons*** Requires a 21-day adjustment period* Higher cost compared to traditional lactase enzymes* Must be taken continuously to maintain benefits

This lactose-oriented probiotic/probiotic blend makes an interesting promise--build dairy tolerance by taking them for 3 weeks. I've taken other probiotics with Bifido strains, but this seems to be a special type derived from human intestines that you don't find in mainstream probiotics. The company was unknown to me, but they specialize in probiotics and offer a lot of science on their website. You're supposed to take for 3 weeks along with your lactose enzyme, and then eat dairy without needing lactose enzymes. I think for me, it may be difficult to test as my indigestion varies with the amount and type of dairy, but I am sure adding these strains will only benefit my gut. I don't experience any side effects, but I take probiotics regularly. It's expensive at $39.99 for 30 days, though. I wish it would be clear if you have to keep taking it daily for it to continue working long-term, or if you can take it only on days you eat lactose. Perhaps this is better suited to people who eat dairy every single day? Props for the cute cow on the container, though. It came with an inner lid seal and an expiration date of only 9 months out.

Holy moly, I wasn’t expecting this supplement to work as well as it does. I’ve never had the best luck with dairy so I thought there was no way a pill would relieve the bloating/fatigue/etc. but this actually does a pretty darn good job. I love how it’s an extended version where you don’t have to take it at every meal - it’s both more effective and more convenient. I will say, stopping after the 21 days hasn’t been an option for me (yet) but the fact that I’m able to digest dairy at all now is game changing. The capsules are standard sized and are really easy to get down. It might feel a little steep on the budget but for something so impactful I’d say it’s 100% worth it.
