What it is

A non-GMO lactic culture is a starter culture made from bacteria that produce lactic acid. These bacteria are specifically selected and grown without the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). They are commonly used in food production to help develop flavor and texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add non-GMO lactic cultures to foods to produce a tangy flavor and to help preserve the product. They are frequently used in dairy products like cheese and yogurt, as well as in fermented vegetables such as pickles and sauerkraut.

Health notes

Non-GMO lactic cultures are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are considered beneficial by some for gut health, though scientific evidence is still developing. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated lactic acid and its salts, and EFSA has also assessed similar cultures. Typical consumption levels are not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. However, if the culture is used in a dairy product, the final product may contain milk allergens.
