Culturelle with antibotics?

[Guest guest]

Hello

My daughter is taking antibiotics for a sinus infection and the doctor

also prescirbed Culturelle which is lactobacillus GG it says it

contains less than 15 parts per million of traces of whey and casien.

Have any of you heard of this and is it okay to take it?

Does anyone of suggestions for sinus or nasal inflammation other than

antibiotics?

She is either having a reaction to this or to some cashew flour she ate

over Christmas.

Thanks

Here is Elaine's explanation,What is

the liquid left over from dripped yoghurt? is it whey?

The water is not whey, per se. Whey contains lactose is usually the word used

when you separate milk into curds (protein) and whey just like Little Jack

Horner. There is no culture involved, just separation which I believe is

done by using rennet when making cheese.

The water we

get in our lengthy fermentation is actually the "water of

hydrolysis" which forms when the culture splits lactose which yields

two monosaccharides

and H2O.

It varies often with temperature variations as well as when you use milk with

varying amount of fat. Skim milk would yield the most water as it has more

lactose than whole milk and, therefore, there would be more water of hydrolysis

when this increased amount of lactose is split. - ElaineTake care,Kim H.

I always forget what whey is.

Is that the part of the yogurt that is dripped out?

Or is it converted during the yogurt making process?
