- The information generated from this experiment can help those who are lactose-intolerant. They can choose milks that contain minimal lactose. It can also help them make a slow transition from lactose-heavy milks to lactose-free milks.
- This experiment is also useful to parents of infants. These infants need lactose for healthy growth. The results of the experiment show parents that formula milk is the best choice for infants who need milks with concentrated amounts of lactose.
- The general population can also benefit from this experiment since humans lose the ability to digest lactose over time so in some cases it may be beneficial to slowly switch over to a milk containing minimal amounts of lactose.
