La lactosa, ¿amiga o enemiga de la dieta?

Abstract

Cada vez es más frecuente que las personas asocien síntomas gastrointestinales al consumo de determinadas sustancias y las eliminen de su dieta habitual, pudiendo evitar alimentos que aportan nutrientes esenciales y beneficios importantes para la salud. En el caso de la lactosa, el auto-diagnóstico de intolerancia es cada vez más común. Esta revisión pretende analizar la evidencia existente acerca de los efectos de la lactosa sobre la salud y determinar cuál es la aproximación terapéutica más adecuada. Los resultados muestran evidencia de que los sujetos con malabsorción de lactosa pueden tolerar la dosis de lactosa contenida en un vaso de leche sin experimentar síntomas, por lo que los productos “sin lactosa” y los preparados con lactasa resultan innecesarios en la mayoría de los casos. El incremento del auto-diagnóstico puede deberse a numerosos factores psicológicos y los síntomas pueden reducirse normalmente con estrategias dietéticas sencillas. Con respecto a los efectos de la lactosa sobre la salud y el desarrollo de determinadas enfermedades, los resultados son contradictorios, hacen falta más investigaciones que analicen los efectos de la lactosa de forma aislada, aunque sí parece evidente que mejora la absorción del calcio. Es necesario que los profesionales sanitarios dispongan de una mayor información actualizada acerca de este tema para que puedan ayudar a comprender a la población que la intolerancia a la lactosa es una condición mucho menos frecuente de lo que actualmente se cree y que puede tratarse sin necesidad de consumir productos especiales o fármacos.

It is becoming more frequent for people to associate gastrointestinal symptoms with the consumption of certain substances and to eliminate them from their habitual diet, avoiding foods that provide essential nutrients and important health benefits. In the case of lactose, self-diagnosis of intolerance is becoming more common. This review aims to analyze the existing evidence about the effects of lactose on health and determine the most appropriate therapeutic approach. The results show ample evidence that subjects with lactose malabsorption can tolerate the dose of lactose contained in a cup of milk without symptoms, so that “lactose free” products and lactase preparations are unnecessary in most cases. Increased self-diagnosis may be due to numerous psychological factors and symptoms can be reduced with simple dietary strategies. Regarding the effects of lactose on health and the development of certain diseases, the results are contradictory and more research is needed to analyze the effects of lactose alone, although it seems to improve the absorption of calcium. It is necessary that health professionals have more up-to-date information on this subject so that they can help to understand the population that lactose intolerance is a much less frequent condition than is currently believed and can be treated without need of consuming special products or drugs.
