does curd have lactose - #23707

Riley

I am really confused about something and could use some advice from anyone who knows about this! I’ve been trying to eat healthier and have been looking into Ayurvedic food options, but I’m worried about lactose. I have a friend who's saying that curd is okay for people who are lactose intolerant, and I’m like, does curd have lactose? Because I’ve always thought it was high in lactose since it comes from milk. My stomach does not handle dairy well, and a few days ago I tried some curd, thinking it would be fine, but I ended up feeling really bloated and uncomfortable. I read stuff online where some folks say that because of the fermentation, a lot of the lactose gets broken down in curd. Is that true? I’m just not sure how much I can trust that info. Can anyone share their thoughts or experiences? Does curd have lactose, and is it safe for someone like me to eat it or should I stay clear? Thanks!
