Lactase Enzyme
Lactase Enzyme appears in 581 indexed US food products. No FDA SAFFA status or CSPI rating is attached in this snapshot, so this page reports prevalence rather than a safety verdict.
What the data can answer
Lactase Enzyme appears in 581 catalogued products, but this snapshot has no FDA SAFFA status or CSPI Chemical Cuisine rating attached to it. This page therefore cannot answer whether the ingredient is safe from those sources. It can show how often it occurs, where it tends to sit on labels, and which kinds of products contain it.

Catalog prevalence comes from Open Food Facts ingredient lists. FDA SAFFA and CSPI Chemical Cuisine labels are shown only when the source record contains them.
How to use this page
Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood
This is a mixed product neighborhood: 204 of 581 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare 0% Fat Free Ultra-Filtered Milk; 0% protein plus milk; 1% Chocolate Lowfat Milk to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 20–100 score range to Lactase Enzyme itself. The ingredient most often sits in the lower half of the list, and Dairies supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.
204 of 581 linked records have some flagged component
All 553 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 20–100 score spread more informative than the average alone: investigate the low end, identify the actual flagged row, and compare it with a similar unflagged formulation before drawing a conclusion.
Next check: pair one flagged product with a similar unflagged product from the same shelf category.

What else is usually in the same product as Lactase Enzyme
Across the 581 products on this site that list Lactase Enzyme, these flagged additives appear alongside it most often.
