Lactose or milk sugar is a disaccharide found in the milk of mammals. Lactose itself is not sweet, it has a low solubility and it cannot be absorbed directly from the intestine. Lactase splits lactose into glucose and galactose, which have a sweetening power of about 0–8 relative to sucrose; they are 3–4 times more soluble than lactose and are easily absorbed from the intestine.
