Holy Cow! vs LactoJoy

LactoJoy vs Holy Cow!

A longer-lasting enzyme is still a pill before you eat.

Up to 6 hours per capsule still means a capsule 15 minutes ahead, a tin in your pocket, and an eye on the clock. Holy Cow! is one capsule, once daily in the morning, for lactose digestion support.*

Holy Cow! bottle and capsule

Studied in people

65%

lower combined daily symptom scores with the studied strain versus placebo over two weeks.*

The study looked at the specific Bifidobacterium adolescentis strain in Holy Cow!, not the finished Holy Cow! product. Results vary.

Good questions. Straight answers.

A few questions.

How is Holy Cow! different from LactoJoy?

LactoJoy Forte is a lactase enzyme capsule (28,000 FCC per capsule, per lactojoy.com) you take about 15 minutes before dairy-containing food or drinks, with up to 6 hours of enzyme activity per capsule, per their site. Holy Cow! is a once-daily capsule featuring a probiotic strain for lactose digestion support.* You take it once a day, not with every dairy meal.

Wait, so Holy Cow! isn't a lactase enzyme?

Nope. Holy Cow! features a specific Bifidobacterium adolescentis probiotic strain. No mealtime enzyme math, no counting tablets at the table.

Do I still need to time anything around meals?

No. Take one capsule once daily in the morning, ideally on an empty stomach, with water rather than a hot drink.

How long should I give it?

Think consistent daily routine, not instant relief from a single meal. We recommend continued daily use for best results. The studied strain was compared with placebo over two weeks.* Results vary from person to person.

What if I forget a day?

It happens to the best of us. Just take your next capsule as usual, following the directions on your bottle. Pro tip: keep the bottle by your toothbrush or water glass so it's part of your morning. Take it with water, not hot coffee or tea, since it's a live probiotic.

Can I use Holy Cow! along with lactase tablets?

Yes. Keep up your regular lactase routine for the first 21 days of taking Holy Cow!, while your daily capsule habit gets going. If you take medication or have a medical condition, check with your healthcare professional.

What about ice cream at midnight?

We don't judge midnight ice cream. Holy Cow! is taken once a day, so there's no extra capsule to hunt for in the dark. Results vary, and you know your body best.

I'm pregnant, nursing or take medication. Can I use it?

Please check with your healthcare professional before starting any new supplement, including Holy Cow!.
