Kavitha M B, Kiruthika R

Abstract: In present times, there has been an increased interest to adapt healthy diets, which help in preventing diseases, and as a consequence, the study and development of new functional foods has gained much importance. The allergy to dairy products affects negatively some persons. Lactose intolerance and the cholesterol content are two major drawbacks related to the fermented dairy products.
