Lactose intolerance is most common among Asians, affecting more than 90 % of adults in some communities. People with ancestry from Northern Europe, on the other hand, have a 5% rate of lactose intolerance.

This digestion is brought about by lactase enzymes which lie in the microvilliâmicroscopic, finger-like projectionsâof the lining of the small intestine.
