Lactose

Lactose, an all natural sugar, is removed from milk and whey during the concentration process. Our lactose monohydrate is a free-flowing powder manufactured from fresh milk and pasteurized sweet whey through membrane filtration. With its clean flavor profile and good solubility, this dairy ingredient can be utilized for various functionalities in a variety of applications.

Lactose is soluble, has a low level of sweetness, and enhances color, flavor and texture. Lactose increases the absorption of minerals such as calcium, magnesium and zinc, contributing to a healthy intestinal flora and has minimal effect on tooth decay compared to other sugars
