The Effect of Lactose Maldigestion on the Relationship Between Dairy Food Intake and Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Dairy food consumption has been inconsistently shown to protect against colorectal cancer (CRC) in case-based studies, and no clear benefits against recurrent colonic polyps (CRP) have been reported. Based on population-based studies we have hypothesized that dairy food intake may have anti-CRC effects at both low intake lactase non-persistent (LNP) populations and at high intake lactase persistent (LP) subjects. We separately analyse existing case-based studies and divide origins into high LNP (>or= 80% LNP p… Show more

“…In such cases, lactose could act as a prebiotic, promoting protective bacteria like bifidobacteria 91. This scenario may represent an ecological fallacy on comparison of outcomes in epidemiological and patient-based studies, as has been shown in the case of colorectal cancer 13,92. While mechanisms pertaining to this issue are controversial, dairy food consumption in high LNP countries is much less common than in high LP countries 13.…”

“…93 Usable results were more likely to indicate the existence of the association than those that were not usable. 93 Furukawa et al 94 investigated the association between the proportion of contributing RCTs and the pooled estimates of 156 Cochrane systematic reviews. A median of 46% [interquartile range (IQR) 20% to 75%] of identified RCTs in each meta-analysis contributed to the pooled estimates.…”

“…Importantly, LP status is a major factor determining the type and amount of dairy products consumed as well as the dairy-derived end-products that are exposed to the colorectal tissue (i.e., lactose moves into the large intestine in lactose intolerant individuals, while lactose is broken down to glucose and galactose and absorbed in the small intestine in lactose tolerant individuals). A nutrigenetic meta-analysis of 80 studies regarding dairy intake and colorectal cancer showed key differences are dependent on dairy intake amount and LP status [ 25 ]. In fact, the researchers reported a protective role of higher dairy intake in both high LP prevalent and high non-LP prevalent populations.…”
