Lactose-intolerance present in infants is due to congenital lactase deficiency, also known as congenital anastasia, a disorder, caused by mutations in the LCT gene. The newborns are unable to breakdown lactose present in the breast milk or the milk formula. This type of disorder is a rare disorder and the incidence at present is unknown.
