Milk Free Acidophilus

If you're looking for milk free acidophilus then it is important to understand the difference between dairy free and lactose free probiotics.

Lactose free products are NOT the same as dairy free products. If an acidophilus supplement is called lactose free it means it does not do not contain any milk sugar, but it may contain isolated, lactose-free milk protein - so it would NOT be dairy free.

A dairy free probiotic means it does not contain either lactose (milk sugars) or milk proteins.

Best known probiotic containing milk free acidophilus is Enzymatic Therapy - Acidophilus Pearls a small dairy free acidophilus capsule with great reviews on Amazon.

Or try Pure Encapsulations Probiotics-5 (dairy-free) - 60 capsules. This is a dairy free probiotic supplement containing 2 billion cfu of Lactobacillus acidophilus DDS-1, Lactobacillus rhamnosus 32, Bifidobacterium bifidum 02, B longum 05, and Bifidobacterium lactis 04 for a total of 10 billion cfu.

A good, but more expensive option is Healthy Trinity - Dairy Free which contains 5 billion cfu of both L acidophilus NAS and L bulgaricus 51, and 20 billion cfu of B bifidum Malyoth.

Soy yogurts can be a source of milk-free acidophilus depending on just which bacteria are used

Turtle Mountain have some delicous dairy and lactose free products but although their soy yogurts and coconut milk yogurts contains live cultures they do not contain L. acidophilus. Shame because they sound delicous!
