What it is
Lactose is a sugar found naturally in milk and dairy products. Milk proteins are the proteins found in milk, such as casein and whey. Both are derived from cow's milk.
Why it's used
Lactose and milk proteins are used in a wide variety of foods. They can act as sweeteners, provide texture, and improve the mouthfeel of products like ice cream, baked goods, and confectionery. Milk proteins are also key components in dairy-based products.
Health notes
Lactose is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. However, many people are lactose intolerant and may experience digestive discomfort if they consume foods with lactose. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated lactose and milk proteins. There are no widespread controversies regarding their use in food for the general population, aside from lactose intolerance.
Allergen info
Lactose and milk proteins are derived from milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens recognized by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
