Step 1: Lactose
Introduction:
Lactose, a disaccharide composed of glucose and galactose molecules, holds a paramount role in the natural human energy supply, especially during the early stages of life. Derived from human milk, lactose serves as a vital carbohydrate source for infants, fueling their growth and development. Understanding the significance of lactose in human nutrition illuminates its essential role in providing energy and nourishment, making it a cornerstone component of the human diet, particularly in the formative years of life.
