Casona Emperatriz by KP Producciones
One of the most important points in the organization of the wedding is undoubtedly the choice of the menu, considering the tastes of the bride and groom, an attractive aesthetic, trends and the season, but also, taking into account the guests. What about allergic and intolerant people? And, in this particular case, lactose intolerant people?
Today there are wedding receptions so varied that you can adapt a special menu for them, from the cocktail to the evening service. Check out these ideas that you can take inspiration from.
What is lactose intolerance
Pelumpén Country Club
El Abrazo Market
This is the name given to the inability to digest without discomfort a sugar called lactose, which is found in milk and dairy products. Those who suffer from this condition do not produce enough lactase enzyme, which is responsible for breaking down lactose. Therefore, lactose not digested by the small intestine reaches the colon and is broken down by bacteria.Lactose intolerance can affect boys and girls alike, as well as occurring in adulthood for a variety of reasons.
