## What is LactoHero?

LactoHero helps you make more confident food choices when lactose is part of the question.

Scan a meal, choose a photo, or describe what you are about to eat. LactoHero estimates the lactose relevance of the food and helps you understand how much lactase enzyme support may fit your personal settings.

Whether you are checking coffee, pizza, desserts, dairy products, sauces, snacks, or hidden ingredients, LactoHero gives you a practical place to start.

Key features:

Food and meal scanner
Use your camera, a photo, or text input to analyze meals and ingredients for a lactose estimate.

Lactose-focused guidance
Get a clear summary of how relevant lactose may be in the meal, including uncertainty where the result is only an estimate.

Lactase support estimate
Set your lactase tablet strength and personal sensitivity so LactoHero can suggest an FCC-based starting point.

Personal food library
Save scans, meals, notes, and results so you can build your own history over time.

Local personalization
Rate how well a meal worked for you. LactoHero can use your feedback to adjust future recommendations locally.

Practical lactose tips
Learn more about lactose, lactase timing, hidden dairy ingredients, long meals, and why portion size matters.

Designed for everyday use
From restaurant meals to packaged foods and homemade dishes, LactoHero helps you quickly check what might matter before you eat.

LactoHero is especially useful if you want help with:

Lactose estimates
Dairy and milk-based meals
Lactase enzyme planning
FCC tablet calculations
Food scanning
Ingredient checks
Personal meal notes
Tracking what worked for you

Important:
LactoHero provides estimates for informational purposes only. Results may be incomplete or inaccurate, especially when ingredients, portion sizes, preparation methods, or photos are unclear. Always check ingredient labels and follow the instructions on your lactase product. LactoHero does not diagnose, treat, or prevent any medical condition and does not replace medical advice. If you are unsure, have severe symptoms, or need medical guidance, speak with a qualified healthcare professional.
