Lactic acid is utilized in the food industry as an additive (E270) serving as an antioxidant, acidifier, or flavor enhancer. It also exists in the form of salts: sodium salt (E325), potassium salt (E326), and calcium salt (E327). These salts are in powder form and are water-soluble. Lactic acid acts as a bacteriostatic agent, particularly against pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella or Listeria, and also has a water activity-depressing effect.

Lactic acid is an organic compound, naturally forming in muscles during intense exercise to produce energy. It is also present in wine, dairy products, and certain vegetables after fermentation.

Calcium carbonate is composed of carbonate ions and calcium ions. This white substance has a molar mass of 100.1 g/mol. Calcium carbonate is the major compound found in limestones like chalk, but also in marble.

Yogurt powder is a dehydrated product made from liquid yogurt. It is obtained through a dehydration process that removes the moisture from the yogurt, leaving a powder that retains the properties of the original yogurt.

E417, also known as tara gum, is a natural food additive extracted from the seeds of the tara tree (Caesalpiniae Spinoza), a tree native to Peru.

Sodium citrate is the sodium salt of citric acid (E330), a natural acid found in most fruits. On an industrial scale, it is produced by cultivating a fungus (Aspergillus niger) in a sugary nutrient solution.

Whey permeate is a product derived from whey, which is the liquid remaining after the coagulation of milk in cheese production. Whey is often composed of water, whey proteins, fats, lactose, and minerals. Whey permeate is obtained through the separation and concentration of whey components.

E965, also known as maltitol, is a polyol sweetener from the polyol family (or sugar alcohols).

Synthetic or mineral anti-caking agent, used with colorants and in foods in tablet, lozenge, and dragee form. No known risks.

Anhydrous dextrose does not contain water and is produced in crystalline or powder form. Dextrose, like fructose and glucose, is a monosaccharide also known as a simple sugar.

Monohydrate dextrose is another name for glucose, which is a monosaccharide sugar.

E1200-dextrose (Polydextrose) Thickening Additive, a polymer of glucose and sorbitol, is produced from glucose, sorbitol (E420), and citric acid (E330). In the human body, it behaves like dietary fiber.
