Characterization of Plant-Based Milk-Derived "Fujiharu Butter": Comparison With Butter and Butter-Like Substitutes. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Food Sci
ABSTRACT Milk is one of the most widely consumed foods; however, people with lactase nonpersistence or milk protein allergies have difficulty consuming milk, as well as digesting most dairy products. Therefore, plant‐based butters made from alternative plant‐derived milks have attracted attention.

Ancient DNA analysis reveals high frequency of European lactase persistence allele (T-13910) in medieval central europe. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Ruminant milk and dairy products are important food resources in many European, African, and Middle Eastern societies. These regions are also associated with derived genetic variants for lactase persistence.

Ileal Lactase Expression Associates with Lactase Persistence Genotypes

open access: yesNutrients, 2021
(1) Background: Lactose digestion depends on persistence genotypes (including rs4988235), the frequency of which exhibits broad geographical variability. However, little is known about the relationship between lactase (LCT) genotypes and intestinal expression of LCT.

Lactase bacteria in intestinal mucosa are associated with diarrhea caused by high-fat and high-protein diet

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2022
Background Excessive fat and protein in food can cause diarrhea by disturbing the intestinal microecology. Lactase is a functional enzyme strongly associated with diarrhea, while lactase bacteria in the intestine are an important source of microbial ...

Lactose intolerance: Causes, effects, diagnosis and symptom control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Lactose intolerance is a very common complaint which leads to a number of distressing gut symptoms in those affected. It can be quite easy to control by reducing milk consumption, and possibly by adding lactase to the diet. However, clinicians should be

Evolution of Lactase Persistence: Turbo-Charging Adaptation in Growth Under the Selective Pressure of Maternal Mortality?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The emergence of the capacity to digest milk in some populations represents a landmark in human evolution, linking genetic change with a component of niche construction, namely dairying.

Effect of lactase on symptoms and hydrogen breath levels in lactose intolerance: A crossover placebo‐controlled study

open access: yesJGH Open, 2021
Background and Aim The absence of lactase in the intestinal villi due to mucosal injury or genetic factors causes undigested lactose to reach the colon where it is fermented.

Comparative metabolomics in primates reveals the effects of diet and gene regulatory variation on metabolic divergence. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Human diets differ from those of non-human primates. Among few obvious differences, humans consume more meat than most non-human primates and regularly cook their food.
