While yoghurt has less lactose than the milk from which it is made, it does contain some lactose, because the fermentation process is not 100% complete. There do exist some brands of yoghurt designed to be edible by lactose-intolerant people, to which lactase enzyme has been added.
The lactose in yogurt has been converted in to lactic acid instead. There may be some amounts of lactose in Greek Yogurt, but often not enough for moderately lactose-intolerant people to suffer.
Yes there is. Lactose is found as a disaccharide in milk and yogurt is a milk product. The flavor of yogurt to milk is the fermentation of the lactose by Lactobacillus and Streptoccocus into lactic acid.
No. It is a dairy product. You can probably find lactose free yoghurt, but it won't taste as good.
Yes, plain yoghurt is. Flavoured yoghurt may contain gluten, so check the packaging before consuming.
If it is not milk-based, it should be lactose-free.
A) Bacteria in yogurt produce lactase B) The lactose content of yogurt is about one-half that of milk C) Yogurt is poorly tolerated in lactose-intolerant people D) There are only trace amounts of lactose present in yogurt
because the bacteria in the yogurt helps digest the the lactose
The bacteria in yogurt breaks the lactose in milk into lactic acid
Yogurt is made by adding a bacterial culture that eats lactose, excreting lactic acid. With the lactose already removed, the yogurt is fully digestible by lactose intolerant people with no bad reactions. The lactic acid simply makes it taste sour and that is usually covered over with fruit if you don't like it.
the sugars found in the yogurt. Most commonly lactose
Many people who cannot tolerate milk, either because of a protein allergy or lactose intolerance, can enjoy yogurt. The culturing process makes yogurtmore digestible than milk.and will not upset your stomach like other regular dairies would.
yogurt, yeast, mold
Lactose
Bacteria convert lactose into lactic acid.
Calcium Phosphate, Potassium Sorbate, Sugar Lactose, and Lactic Acid.
you probably have lactose intolerance, to do with milk, check with your doctor or gp
The lactose in milk can irritate the symptoms of ulcerative colitis, but generally lactose is not believed to be a central CAUSE of ulcerative colitis. However, "fermented milk" - yogurt - may be beneficial because it contains the bacteria that digest lactose for us. These bacteria should be present in our colon, but as we age they often die out, often by the time we are 15 or 20 yrs. old. Eating yogurt [or other fermented foods] will replenish our gut with these beneficial bacteria and they have already digested most of the lactose in the yogurt.
