24hr yogurt fermentation changes lactose to galactose, is this ok?

[Guest guest]

I read the following on a website desgnated to cure Candida and they made the statement shown below. This has got me thinking and worried. Does anyone here know if the lactose is in fact changed to galactose and if so doesn't galactose feed the baddies in the same way as lactose does? If so maybe I am wasting my time. Perhaps I should use lacotse free milk instead.

"Candida's main food supply is sugar and all forms of it, including lactose in dairy products (except butter), honey, maple syrup, molasses, glucose, fructose, lactose, and sugar substitutes, i.e. NutraSweet, aspartame, saccharin, etc. – see list below. Eliminating sugar is the most important part of the Candida Program. Note: Even yogurt and kefir are not okay for candida sufferers even if they are fermented long enough to lower the lactose content, since lactose is changed into another sugar, called galactose, during the fermentation process."
