Lactose, Beans & Fibre: Which Enzyme Fixes Which

SPIRO Plus — New Zealand

If certain foods reliably cause gas, the fix is often the specific enzyme for that food. Here is the simple map.

Dairy → lactase

Lactose intolerance is a lactase shortage. Lactase breaks milk sugar so it does not ferment.

Beans & legumes → α-galactosidase

The classic “musical fruit” gas comes from complex sugars only α-galactosidase breaks down.

Fibre & veg → cellulase and hemicellulase

Humans do not make cellulase. Without it, extra fibre can ferment and bloat — which is why fibre supplements sometimes backfire.

Grains → amylase, glucanase, xylanase

Starch and grain sugars need their own set.

The advantage of one formula

Rather than buying separate enzymes, SPIRO Plus covers all of these in one daily chewable.

Frequently asked questions

What enzyme helps with lactose intolerance?

Lactase — it breaks down milk sugar. It is one of the carbohydrate enzymes in SPIRO Plus.

Why does fibre make me bloated?

Without cellulase and hemicellulase, extra fibre ferments instead of breaking down.
