Lactulose
is a non-absorbable form of sugar or prebiotic carbohydrate. It can be produced
by isomerization of lactose, which stimulates the growth of health-promoting
bacteria in gastrointestinal tract. It is used in treatment of hepatic
encephalopathy, maintain insulin and blood glucose level and treatment of
constipation. It is a synthetic sugar solution which works by decreasing the
amount of ammonia in the blood which is anticipated to growth of lactulose
market. Lactulose is widely used as filler for capsules & tablets in the
medicinal industry and there are some health benefits of lactulose as nutrition
ingredients which include stimulating effect, stimulation of intestinal flora
and improvement in calcium absorption. It consists of detoxifying properties
which are helpful in the treatment of hyperammonemia caused by portal
systematic encephalopathy directed to increasing lactulose market in pharma
industries.
Some of the side-effects are included gas,
burping, diarrhea, muscle cramps/weakness, vomiting, irregular heartbeat,
seizures, stomach rumbling/pain, mental/mood changes, bloating, nausea, and
others. The key advantages of lactulose as food materials include good heat
resistance, good acid resistance, promote the absorption of calcium &
magnesium, and low calorie and sweetness and safe & reliable etc.
According to study, “Global Lactulose Market 2019 by Manufacturers,
Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2024” the key
