What is Lactose Free?

Lactose is a simple sugar found in milk or products derived from milk. Many individuals are Lactose intolerant and can feel the symptoms shortly after consuming milk based products; these include stomach upset, indigestion and stomach cramps.

Lactose Free products do not have any milk or milk derivatives in them making it easy for those who are Lactose intolerant to digest them. Some products use Soy milk as a substitute for real milk.

While Mirchi.com strongly urges its sellers to clearly indicate if a product is Lactose Free in the product detail page, it does not guarantee that the information is correct;. We recommend that you contact a seller/fulfiller to confirm by clicking on the envelope icon on the top right hand corner of the site, next to the name of the seller.

Lactose Free products are indicated in the Dietary Information section of a product.
